    I've got one (1200 I think) hidded up in the attic, it has been there for about 10 years without being switched on. Monitor too. I'll see if it still works and report back.

    I had one of these bad boys, (although mine had a green screen). Bought it off my cousin with 50 games which were cassettes. Only 5 of them worked. The only place I could get games for it was off Cleethorpes Market. My dad would buy me 5 games and a PS1 game just in case the Amstrad games didn't work.

    Got one in the loft, not for sale though sorry. Amiga 1200 Desktop Dynamite, fully boxed. Paid £42.50 off ebay back in 2006 :)

    May have to get it out now. Got a small 20gb 2.5"hard drive and connecting ribbon I never got round to installing.

    Just checked eBay and one sold for £160 :cool:

    Got the amiga out, bit yellowed on the top, power supply and non-standard mouse. Also monitor lead. No Workbench but loads of "backup" floppies of games.
    Just need to get the monitor out and fire it up tomorrow.

    Cost me over £10 for the workbench 3.0 discs. They're pretty hard to come by.
