By the way, some of you may be interested to know that I have received ONE (1) bid for my "For Sale" AMIGA. The bid ($1000) was about $500 low for my tastes. The reason I say that is that a fat MAC with an external drive (used system) is going for about $1500. It seems that my amiga is having real problems retaining resale value!!
