I think this is one such preproduction machine. Can't verify at the moment since I can't find a HAM viewer for OSX!

My CBM A4000T is serial number:

9000002

I acquired it several years ago as basically a "basket case" that needed much work.  I have done very little with it as it is down my projects priority list quite a ways.  I have most of the parts I will need to make it breathe again but it will not be 100% original when I am done but I don't really see a way around that.  I am not even certain that all of the items that came with it are original.

The story I got when I bought it was that it had been originally owned by NewTek where it was used for Video Toaster development which makes sense because of the low serial number.

Intersting low serial number - the Picture in BBoAH has serialnumber 9000001 - judging from that, yours is number 2 produced.
 
Anybody with high numbers? Mine is 200000073 (from the German assembly line)

Hi dannyp1, can you post some photos please. Pictures of these CBM A4000T are severely lacking on the net!

Thanks! What I would like to see are highest pics of the case from various angles. Shots of the front with door open. Perhaps a side by side case comparison with the AT 4000T too?

Until now I've found 3 CBM serials in total -but it can't be that rare. If anybody is following a foreign speaking forum (french, Hungarian, german etc.) - could you please post a note about this thread?

Highest serial received so far is 0093, so conclusion is we ares till below 100 produced.

Received a bunch of serials (4 from Germany) - and the status is:

Highest unitnumber produced by Commodore in Germany: 131
Highest unitnumber produced by Commodore in USA: 43

If we don't find any higher serialnumbers (unit numbers) - conclusion still is that under 200 was produced and very few is known to exists today (10 in total).

It's very likely that we havn't found all owners yet - but we keep looking.

1475..., that dosn't sound like a CBM serial number.

Not sure why mine got removed from your list again.

It was 8511194365150001000030 and taken from above the zorro slots on the motherboard.

Thanks !

Kind of an oddball though .. not? The Amiga Technologies models don't have the serial number above the zorro slots plus their serial numbers start differently. Plus they don't have the triangle with exclamation sign up by where the battery is.

Braunschweig - 8 digits
20000030
20000073
20000093
20000099
20000112
20000128
20000131

West Chester - 7 digits
9000001
9000002
9000020
9000043

Mine
1000030 - 7 digits

I have no clue :)
