Man, I wanted one of these in the worst way for A500 back in the day. If I still had a functional A500 I'd snatch it up in a heart beat. I already have too many Amigas though.

Holy crap!  Rocking horse droppings!!!

I've never actually seen one of those things outside of a advert in a magazine.  I wonder how many of them exist.

Edit:  The BBOAH says it has space for 3 hard drives and has 4 Zorro II slots.  Nice way to add a graphics card and networking.

If I had the cash, I would buy this puppy - then go looking for an A500 to put it on. Hard to believe this price is even fair (cheap? for now).

Did you ever get around to adding a video card and/or a Deneb?

Hi, got one of these picked it up on ebay about four years ago for £60 (I think), powered it up once but have not used it properly yet, will get around to it as soon as the house grows around my collection of collectables, below is a link of Bodega Bay pictures, I also have an A500 030 cpu 33 or 40Mhz 32 meg memory to use in the B/Bay.

http://www.amiga.org/forums/album.php?u=8087

Always wanted one of these & in the end after waiting 15 years one turned up with not much competition on the bidding
, they weigh about 10 to 15 pounds and are steel and aluminium with an ATX (I think) power supply (dont have a power lead from the Bay to  the Amiga.

same coloring as all Amiga items and third party paraphernalia produced all those years ago, I also have a PC DX4 chip, motherboard, case from all those years ago and that's the same color as the Amiga stuff.

I owned one of these and sold it. Regretted it and bought a second one which I still have. It doesn't get the use it should so I feel guilty holding on to it but I just can't seem to part with it either.

I don't think I ever realized it was considered that rare.

Not yet.  The Deneb went into the A4000.  However, the BB did get a bigger SCSI hard drive and a CD drive.
