alexh: The problem with broken ones is that people seem to be unwilling to part with them cheaply, presumably because they paid a lot for them when they worked. It does need to be very cheap too, since you have no idea how much it's going to cost to get amiga repair center to work on it until after you've bought it and sent it off. Might be worth popping over to Amibench though, as someone posted a want ad for a CSPPC/MkIII since his PPC died - he might be willing to sell it on. |
I know what you mean, seems like there's a high-price-season on Ebay at the moment...best season is in the mid summer when people are on vacation but there's less stuff for sale then
About the '040, JJ at Amigacenter in FRance can always upgrade it later on to a full 68060 and maybe he has a 68060 with the latest mask which more heat tolerant so you can overclock it
