Haynie's Garage Sale
« on: April 10, 2011, 02:44:13 PM »
Hi All-

I've literally cleaned out my garage, and I'm working on the cellar. Avoiding the dumpster, so far, I have a number of bits of old junk, er, "unique items from the history of Commodore" (you can see why I wasn't in Marketing at Commodore), that are now up on eBay. More to come.

I have no idea if anyone will find most of this stuff of any value or not, but I'm not much of a collector... I have some things in a box to eventually put on display somewhere, and the rest is going to hopefully find a home with someone more happy to have it.

Search for "haynie's garage" or follow this link: http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=haynie%27s+garage&_sacat=See-All-Categories

Any one loan me enough for one .44 cal bullet?

starting prices are $0.01.... if you get it for that i think you would have no problem. but postal prices can send you down the suicide path... who knows... maybe better to stay away from this thread, while the auctions are going on..

By the time this auction ends most of you will be flat broke! Most of this stuff belongs in an Amiga Museum. I hope the lucky winner(s) will try to preserve some of it!

I second that: Dave, thanks for the stories. And thanks for your work with the Amigas.

Yeah.. eBay changed their API some time ago, but I haven't updated. In fact, that whole Frog Pond Media site could use a serious update.

I second that, imagine an exhibition showing Denise with Denise etc.

It would be a massive shame if these ended in a private collection, that is History right there.
was Enterprise Vault (Its an Exchange Fail!), now its EMC Avamar, Dedupe for mostly everything including brain cells.

Awesome, thanks for the memories, Dave :)

EDIT: I think you have a mistake in the RKM description - your first exposure to the Amiga was probably in 84 not 94... fortunately for us :)
