Well that's just dirty to me, buying at an auction and reselling is perfectly fine. I buy from vendors all them time and encourage others to support their local vendors. It's the folks who go to dirty tactics to keep others away or scam them who are the bad guys, not someone who just trying to make a few extra bucks. JMHO.

I got two of these and only needed one. I bought it to use on my Amiga 2000 to extend the keyboard behind my desk to keep the cord from getting messed up. This cable fits the Amiga, or PC-AT style keyboard. It also is used in MIDI setups. $8 shipped, US Only. Dan

I bought an older Pentium 4 PC for dirt cheap, got a KVM switch, and set it up with Windows 95. It's sole purpose is to serve my C128D. I have a 1541 plugged into it, I have a null modem cable running to a Supra modem interface on the C128D. With this I run BBS Server to telnet into BBS's, and run GUI 4 CBM to read\write C= disks. This this has been (to me at least) a very economical solution to a SD or other device. Gives me a lot more flexability IMHO. Just my $.02

Nice setup! The MMR 030 i have can be turned off via software, or you can leave it off an run it manually when wanted\needed. The gap around the floppy drives is to let the dust in.

Thanks! I got to play with it today and the TG-16 is an awesome console. Now to find some games, but that ain't gonna be chaep. :-)

Flea markets are getting like that, yesterday this dbag was hoovering around a stack of NES and PS games with his little smartphone dialed into Amazon. You could see the d-bagery oozing from this guy. Thankfully he had nothing of value in his protected stash. But, I did get a TG-16 at the same flea for $17 so I'm over it today.

Here are a couple of better shots: And: Found a vendor and picked up a couple of keyboard extenders so I have the keyboard and mouse routed behind and over the drawer. This keeps the cables from streaching and binding. Nice little system: A2000, Rev 4.3 mobo Mega-Midget Racer 68030 w\2MB RAM 3.1 ROMS Updated Agnus and Denise to 1M full ECS OS 3.1 SupraRAM 8MB card GVP HDC +2 HD controller with 2MB RAM and a 3GB drive 6X CD-ROM 250MB Zip Amiga 1011 drive (pretty little thang)

Yesterday was my "best day" of the wild game hunting season. Hit a couple of fleas and through the normal over priced PS and Xbox systems, the glod Zelda cartridge for $29.99, and a stack of E.T. for the 2600 priced at $10 each, I wondered across this gem: New, unsealed for $6. Going to hang on the wall and stay unopened. Then, laying un-noticed under a vendor table was this: No controller, but clean, has the dust cover, and works perfectly. $17! Got the game from a local store for $5.50. Snagged a controller from e-Bay for $14.95 shipped. Total for a working TG-16, $37.45. I'm ok with that!

I found it a few days ago at a local thrift store, some of the veneer is a bit rough but then again I paid $7.99 for it. I've been looking for a compact desk to fit in the living room and about dropped a load when I saw it sitting in the store, it's identical to the one I used to use. I had an instant flashback to sometime around 1988 when mine housed my "decked out" Commodore 64 setup. My son was 4 then and wanted to play Ghostbusters, I told him to let dad get a cup of coffee and I'd start it for him, as I was pouring the coffee I heard the game starting. I asked him if he did that and he said yeah. I made him show me and by God he knew how to load C= games at 4! That's my boy! Thrift stores are a gold mine, I got the 250MB SCSI Zip drive there with a pair of disks for $10, the power center under the monitor was had for $3, I find all kinds of hard to find cables that come in handy for these old machines all the time.

I love all this Amiga talk. I broke down and bought an old school computer desk the other day at a local thrift store. It's the kind where the keyboard drawer pulls out and there is a slanted top that holds books. This is exactly like my very first one back in the late 80's. Anyway, got it cleaned up and moved my A2000 out of the basement, up into the light of the living room, and back in play! Not the best picture, but it'll do for now.

Nice deal, I paid a small fortune for those when they came out, but at least I got $90 for them a few months back to cover the cost of the upgrade to Blu-ray. No complaints though, I love the show too much. Thanks. I love these thrift store gems, earlier this year I found the complete Space:1999 DVD set for $19.99. now if I could just find the complete ST:Next Generation set......

Hit the fracking jackpot today! Went to a local thrift and found a game.com with two carts inside, Lights Out and Williams Arcade Classics, no pen. $.99 Looks fair condition. The jackpot is the complete 40 DVD set of Star Trek the original series. This is the set released in 1999. All DVD;s are mint and with their booklets. $29.99! I love thrift stores!

Ok, that sounds like the title of a bad college paper. Being from the SW Ohio area, the big computer scene around here was the Commodore and Radio Shack brands, others were around but in much smaller numbers. Has anyone done a study that shows what parts of the country trended to a particular brand of home computer back in the good old days.

$60, more like stole it. Good deal for sure.

Hit a few local game stoeres and fleas Sunday and found a few goodies. NES: $1.43 each 3-D Worldrunner Acclaim 1987 Rampart Jaleco 1992 Shadowgate Kemco 1989 Wario's Woods Nintendo 1994 Atari 2600: $6.99 Ghostbusters Activision 1985

Blue Max on the Commodore 64 Commander Keen 4 on the PC GOW: Ghost of Sparta on the PS3

Say that when you are 30 or 40, it won't be no where as creepy pup. ??? Dude, I'm 35. And it's still creepy. Point taken.

I'm 50 and for me it's never stopped. Been gaming since a kid back in the days of board games and the start of book and paper based D&D. Always have had games in various forms. Still play tons of different card and board games, and rock out on the consoles. My estate sale is going to kick ass!

Great guy to deal with! Dan

Thanks! I have fun with it.

Hello, I have received a few computer items, one item is a TI Model PHP1500 Solid State Speech Synthesizer. It looks to be not used, came with the small manual, and the box has a TI label on it. Anyone know an approxamate value for this? Thanks

Sold and shipped!

SO for my 300th post why not do it in this thread. Well, that's about it for my 300th post.

Where did you get this from? A guy over on Landover by the name of Megabit. He makes these, if you own a 128 it's a must have! http://www.commodore128.org/index.php?topic=2645.0
