Got a 3000 recently...
« on: October 19, 2011, 10:13:39 PM »
I found another Amiga locally yesterday, I bought a 3000 in box with instructions and tons of software for $100. A bit more expensive than my 4000, oddly enough...

Still, I'm going to get good use out of it. I'll try to max out the RAM and put in a big hard drive. I need to get everything set up, then I will have the machines set up right next to each other. :)

Yep! That's next summer's project!!

 The A4K isn't too bad. I will probably just leave it. The A3K, that's a definate! The pics make them look worse than they really are.

I just bought an A3000 recently as well. Where do you live to have cheap Amigas for sale? ;-)

You know, I was thinking the same thing when I saw this post. I would love to find big box AMIGA's for $100 with extras!

Well, from your signature I could say you're able to make an even more impressive picture with the 3000T!

@Tupin

The A3000 is my all time favorite, beautiful machine... Congrats!

Nice find at a nice price!  I always loved the A3000.
