Nice!

I wish my 3000 hadn't been swindled by that con... Ugh!

I have to say, I think the 3000 is a unique system, with a beautiful case. I wish someone would remake a case for it, with CD replacing the floppies, and it being ATX or 3k compatible (may require different versions of the case)

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I'll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real 'Amigas', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

I never had an a3000, only lots of 500's 1200, 1000 and 2000.

someday if I find one inexpensive, I will refurb one.

I think the 3000+ is going to be in the Netherlands pretty soon, so then I can take some photos of it.

For teh time I had mine it was great, but I broke it when I put a parallel device in the SCSI port (I was very naive about SCSI).
