- Melbourne buyers only please. I'd rather not have to ship stuff around the
- country, as I'm not super desperate to sell my stuff.
-
- Mostly Amiga stuff for sale. I'll separate some of the items below if there
- is interest.
-
- -=-=-=-=-=-
-
- Amiga 2000 ... 3 Mb RAM (2 Mb RAM on the GVP HD controller)
- GVP series II controller, orig s/w and manuals
- 2 x 40Mb Quantum HD's (LPS40 models)
- 2 FDD's
- 1084 monitor
- ECS chipset
- AmigaDos 2.04 ROM and original s/w
- all orig manuals
-
- ... I'm asking $1750 ONO.
-
- ... This A2000 belonged to my mate who is a hacker kind of dude,
- thus the front of the case has 2 switches on it, 1 is a kill
- chipmem hack for games that want only 1/2 Mb of chipmem. The
- other is for an unfinished project he was working on.
-
- The other hack was that he cut the GVP HD controller in half.
- {Groan ... :-(} Everything works on it, he just needed some
- space inside the case for a full height 5.25" HD once, so he
- cut off the GVP controller PCB where you mount the HD as an
- internal hard disk... :-)

-
- Amiga Phoenix motherboard complete with ECS chipset and 1.3 ROM and 2Mb RAM.
-
- I don't remember the revision number of the board, I bought it a year ago &
- never used it... It has the SCSI controller that does *not* support the RDB
- standard, but the time I did test the controller it worked fine with one of
- my Quantum's that I mentioned in the above setup.
-
- Oh yeah, this is the 1 Meg ChipRAM model, and you'd need to buy the Phoenix
- upgrade kit to have the 2 Meg ChipRAM option installed.
-
- I never used this board because I became disenchanted with "hacking" around
- with my A1000 (I like the bugger! :-)) & coupled with the fact that I'm not
- a hardware type of hacker I thought I'd just leave it alone for a while.
-
- I'm asking for $900 ONO. The board does not need any custom chips, which I
- purchased for about $200 originally.
-
- -=-=-=-=-=-
-
- If you are interested in either system, or parts there of please me make an
- offer.
-
- I don't really know if the above prices are fair so I'm really just testing
- "the water" so to speak. If it seems to me that the current market value of
- my equipment is too low, then I may just trade them in at Maxwell on an up-
- grade to an Amiga 3000 as I'd rather off-load them conveniently rather than
- sell the stuff piece by piece.
-
- Thanks if you read this far. I know it's a long post. I got carried away.
