Awright...here's the situation.  I am sacrificing my toy for an IBM.  Why am I doing it?  Because I'd like a portable so I can take notes in class and write papers in the library and do things productive instead of having people knocking on my door asking to play games.

What do I have???

Commodore Amiga A500 with 1 MB RAM (512K Chip/512K Fast)
2 Amiga Floppy Drives
A-Max II Mac Emulator with Mac Floppy Drive
Supra SCSI Controller with Quantum 11 ms 40 MB Hard Disk
Practical Peripherals PM2400SA 2400 baud modem
Hewlett-Packard Deskjet 500 printer
Mouse, 2 joysticks, Manuals, etc.
Incredible amounts of software (Word processing/games/demos/graphics/sound/etc)
Custom oak disk briefcase for all floppies (approx 400-500)

So what do I want out of this deal???

I want a reliable IBM Compatible Portable System.  I'd like a 20 MB or greater hard disk and a backlit LCD display or gas plasma display.  I'd like a 286 machine or greater.  If it's got an internal modem, you get the external modem in my system.  The HP DeskJet goes in the deal for an extra $350 on your part (or a Canon BubbleJet (BJ-10e) if you can get one cheaper than $350).  The DeskJet is well worth $350, as it was purchased towards the beginning of the school year (late October) and has been used rel








atively lightly since then.  If you don't want it, I could always use it with the IBM, so that's cool.

If you have anything outstanding, I could possibly include cash (not really likely) or include parts (like the DeskJet 500) or other stuff to trade (stereo equipment, CDs, the kitchen sink, etc.).

Thanks!
