    Found an Old Keyboard......

    So, as I was going through several pallets of auction items that arrived today, I see this box:


    I pick it up and think to myself, "pretty heavy fooking keyboard!" I look in the box and guess what I found?

    This:





    Commodore A1200 Amiga!!

    Made my day!!

    Very lucky find (did it have the mouse?). Anything installed in the trapdoor underneath? Make sure you have the correct power supply for it (the Commodore 128 one has the same plug but it will blow up the machine with different voltages).

    Thanks. Everything is installed in the trapdoor. No power adapter, but it did have the mouse.

    I am probably going to sell it. I dont collect them and it would be better in the hands of someone who does and can appreciate it
