In September 2022 my great friend Gustavo (Gusi for friends), passed away unexpectedly 
. We had spent not hundreds but thousands of hours in front of his A1200. Debugging it, removing and putting hardware and software on it.... Playing basically. We never did anything productive.
Twelve years ago he gave it to me as payment for a very small debt he owed me and twelve years the Amiga has been in storage, because I have my A4000 and because it was very difficult for me to get rid of this machine.
I think the time has come to settle the account definitively.
It took me a little more than 450 days to complete the Amiga with everything we would have liked to have. Searching and getting what is now installed has not been easy.
So, dear friend Gusi... here we close our debt. See you in a few years.
"We" sell A1200
- Blizzard PPC 603e+/60 240-60MHz + 256MB + SCSI 10 MB/s
- BlizzardVision PPC
- IDE-fix express (5MB/s)
- Flicker Magic
- Elbox Tower
- Mediator PCI 1200 SX (2002) rev.1.0
- Radeon 9250 128MB Graphics (OS4 and Classic Compatible)
- Sound CRE∆TIVE CT5880-DCQ
- Ethernet RTL8139C (RealTek)
- SCSI Adaptec AIC-7856T (The driver is not very good and does not go over 2.5 MB/s)
- Internal SCSI hard disk
- Internal IDE hard disk
- 3 RW CD/DVD (1xCD-ROM SCSI, 2xDVD-ROM IDE)
- Cocolino PS/2 mouse interface & PS/2 to USB adapter
- I also gift Avid MediaDrive rS_18 SCSI drive (18GB) and SCSI extender cable (pictures 31, 38 and 39)
The board is already updated with the latest FIRMWARE (unofficial Phase5) "last private with OpenPCI 2.2 support, version 44.71, date 26/04/2002". Retrieved from the web:
https://www.a1k.org/
The hard disks are duplicated and partitioned with the possibility of five different boots.
The first eight partitions (not yet deleted) are within the first four GigaBytes. This way they can be read from Kickstart 3.0 and run certain games:
- BlizzardVision-OS3.9 (PCI does not work). DELETED
- Radeon-OS3.9 (with PCI) by default DELETED
- OS3.5 DELETED
- OS3.1 DELETED
- GameBoot-3.0 DELETED
The payment will be by PayPal as a GIFT FOR VALENTINA (my 8 years old daughter).
PRICE 2.200€ with shipping included.
I reserve the right not to ship to countries that do not support insurance.
Obviously I can't offer warranty for the years that have passed although I can assure you that the computer has been 12 years without turning on, and that's a good thing. I also do not accept returns.
All photos and videos are after March 1 of this year, except number 13 which is from 2014. Exactly from June 13, 2014.
Very important.
Due to the way the Blizzard PPC and BVision are mounted in the Elbox tower, they are not fixed as the PCI cards might be. The two cards, screwed together (photo 15), are connected to the expansion bus of the motherboard without any fixation. This allows an oscillating movement of the Blizzards.
To protect the cards from shocks in transport, due to oscillation, I have put a piece of foam between the RAM of the Blizzard PPC and the power supply.
In principle you can work with it like this, but as you will have to remove the cover to be able to extract the Cocolino (photo 35) you decide.
NaClU2 to all.
Edit: Package shipped.
