Does anyone here have an Amiga 1000 they are willing to sell?


I have never owned an Amiga.

Would like to buy one.

Why the 1000?

If you've never owned an Amiga, you should be looking at Amiga 500 (most sold, most modern expansions, highest direct software compatibility).

Otherwise, get a miSTer and use minimig-miSTer core.

1000 being the first Amiga, there are a lot of limitations and annoyances relative to newer models. The 512KB maximum CHIP RAM is particularly crippling.

You'd be better off with an a500, no?

a500 was amazing. But why buy one now? Emulators are pretty good.
