It has an internal 40 meg hard drive, which is very fast when compared to all other hard drives. I will send drive access times for this drive as well as GVP/Supra controller set-ups. It is an IDE drive with the AdIDE controller. I also have 2.5 megs of memory, and a 4 meg expansion board just waiting for 2 more megs. It has a nice clock, too! I have a Magnovox monitor with a tilt/swivel base, and a surge protector for the whole system. I also have a 2400 baud modem which works with any Amiga. And last of all, a keyboard skin to protect it from dust and food, or whatever might spill into it. Well, there is one thing I don't have connected. I had to disconnect my internal floppy drive to put in the 40 meg hard drive. I have been using an external floppy to mount my hard drive, and I found it very usable with just the hard drive connected. In fact, all that is needed to connect the internal floppy drive is a 50 cent cable which I have not ordered yet (I will do so before selling my Amiga so you won't have to worry about it). Well, I estimate the system to be worth $1500 if you were to buy everything brand new with todays street prices. I also have lots of software that is included, plus EXTRA docs for C programming and 3d rendering that I printed out in nice double-sided hole-punched binders. Well, I won't say anything about the price, but I do have a low price in mind, and keep in mind that there is software coming with it (300 fonts, C compiler, word processor, etc). :) -- David Tiberio SUNY Stony Brook 2-3481 AMIGA DDD-MEN "If you think that we're here for the money, we could live without it.
