Just bought a amiga 4000D and T

[greenmeanie]

I paid $50.00 for the desktop and 150.00 for the tower and a bunch of software.
Hope to get them running and in working order soon.

Sweet!

Sweet!

Very nice!

Now how about those pictures for the rest of us to enjoy?

Those are amazing deals you got. Those systems often going for a minimum double that...

Very nice indeed. I've never been able to play with a 4000 so I look once and a while but usually it's out of my price range for a play toy.

You'll find that the 4000 still to this day has a lot of support going for it. "aminet" is your friend -- you'll find more software there than you can play with in your lifetime.

While you can add a network card, or 3d accelerator, or PowerPC accelerator card (or 68060 accelerator) *those* are pretty hard to find (most die-hards won't part with them). If you already have those components, consider yourself lucky!

The A500 is also a great little machine for games, and are usually somewhat cheap. 1986, an Amiga 1000 (big brother of the A500), and a copy of Defender of the Crown and I was **FLOORED**. Both software and hardware were years ahead of their time.

Double?
If that;'s a 4000T, it'll fetch probably 4 times what he paid for it!!!

As for Amiga software, UseNet is your ABSOLUTE best friend :lol:

I think this is the operational phrase in the message.

Here is a pic.
Well I said hope but they could be running due in Monday.

AMINET is great for utilities, there are a couple websites for drivers, and if you like games google TOSEC and WHDload.

I love my Amigas (500, 2000, 1200, 3000), the 4000's are a bit harder to find and are not cheap.

It fired right up.
Came with a /60 processor and a cybervision 64/3D
Going to start cleaning it up and make it look pretty. Also thinking of adding a bigger HD.

NICE!

Make sure you back everything up; if you have any OS version UNDER 3.9 you need a special startup driver to recognize and use the '060. Or, you can install OS 3.9, which supports '060.

Just put it on Ebay going to try and make some money off it
