    Default CBM A1200, HD, 1230, Ehernet

    Hi all,

    I have for sale my Commodore A1200 in good working order.

    The A1200 is in good condition with very little yellowing and would clean up really nice. The ROMS are 3.0 and all seems to function as expected except the floppy drive does not read disks.

    Installed in the A1200 is a 20GB 2.5" IDE hard disk but it is only partitioned to use the first few gigabytes.

    Also installed is a Viper 1230/28 RTC with FPU installed as well. IIRC, the SIMM in the accelerator is a 16MB part, but was jumpered down to 8MB which is the maximum for this card. It is now jumpered down to 4MB to allow me to use the included Easynet PCMCIA card.

    The hard disk is installed with ClassicWB and MiamiDX, AmiFTP, AmIRC, and the demo of IBrowse, so could be put on the internet straight out. In the interest of honesty, none of these (expecially Miami DX) are registered versions.

    The A1200 can be connected to a monitor with either the RGB to SCART or RGB to VGA cable, both of which are included.

    There is a plastic box of spare bits and pieces that come with the sale
    including:

    * A dissasembled A1200 (believed to have a monitor output issue)
    * An intact A500 (I think this works ok, but not sure?)
    * A spare power supply
    * An external floppy drive (assume it is faulty, I cant remember)
    * Assorted 1084s style monitor cables
    * A parnet/laplink cable, home made but tested working with PC2Ami

    I dont have any software with the machine, and no original boxes.

    I'm looking for £100, no offers.

    I live in Nottingham, England.
    I may be able to meet you part way if you need to travel, but obviousely wont be able to show everything working if that is the case.

    Many thanks for looking, and if you have any questions, let me know.

    Mike Wroughton

    Hi all,

    I've reduced the price on the A1200. Surely someone must be interested at this price? Youre buying an A1200 in good working order, A Viper 1230, A spare A1200 and an A500 for £100!!

    Thanks

    Mike

    Oooh! Interest declared, depending upon this next question...

    Nottingham is miles away from me, so would it be possible to arrange postage for this lot and if so how much?
    A500, A500+, A600, A1200 x2, A2000, A4000, RiscPC, Dragon 32, CBM PET 4032, PCW8256.

    I'm definitely interested in this, but I have no transport at the moment. I live about 30 miles away from you just outside Worksop. Will see if I can scrounge a lift but not hopeful.

    Hi Uncle_Meat,

    Your interest was declared first so you are number 1 on the list. I am happy to arrange postage, but I think you would be looking over 30 for the lot to be sent to you.

    I don't know where abouts you are in Wales, but I could potentially meet you somewhere near Swindon next Saturday early afternoon if that helps. I'm going down to Guildford for the weekend you see.

    Hi ptyerman,

    You are number 2 on the list . As with Uncle_Meat, I'm happy to arrange to meet you somewhere or if you can pay for the fuel, I might be able to deliver it myself, as you aren't too far away.

    Thanks to you both

    Mike

    Hi Mike.
    I would be happy paying for your fuel and time if Uncle_Meat decides not to purchase.
    Detailed directions could be given by PM or email and I would be very grateful. Thank You.

    Parcel arrived today. Christ, you should have heard the names the postie was calling me, that parcel weighed a ton.

    Initial testing after 5 minutes, all seem OK so far.

    Cheers!
