Old Amiga fan in USA with stuff to give away

I was a long time Amiga user, especially in love with ImageFX but I pretty much lost my ability to use Amiga software when the graphic card in my Amithlon machine died and had to be replaced. I am now using Xubuntu Linux and I have not been successful with getting EUAE to run properly.

I have a lot of things to sort through including many Amiga related original program disks, magazines and manuals. I would like to find someplace I could send this unwanted Amiga material. I would appreciate having the cost of shipping covered however. I can probably send it fairly inexpensively via UPS in the US or Canada. I will get together lists of what I have if there is interest.

To begin with: Starting with bookshelf nearest my desk:

Toaster Tool kit 4000 with floppy disks and manual

OzWare
Co-Pilot Video with floppy disks manual
ProWave
Pro Mix with floppy disks manual
RenderFx with floppy disks manual

SAS/C (Amiga) Development System User's Guide with Floppies
SAS/C (Amiga) Development System Library References

Manuels
Lightwave 3D User Guide
Lightwave 3D Reference Manual
Lightwave 3D Systems Guid and Installation
Video Toaster Font Guide (2 copies)

Pagestream 3 Amiga user manual
(I have the disks for this also plus the upgrades and older versions)

Books
Programming Guide to the Amiga by Robert Peck

SAS/C (Amiga) Development System User's Guide with Floppies
SAS/C (Amiga) Development System Library References

AmigaDos Inside & Out by Kerkloh Tomsdorf & Zoller

Using ARexx on The Amiga by Zamara & Sullivan

I have 6 or so of those floppy disk drawer units full of OEM Amiga program floppies. I think what I will do is go through a drawer at a time and list them starting tomorrow.

Then I have at least 2 CD/DVD sized plastic file drawers full of OEM Amiga related floppies. I also still have a couple of the SCSI Amiga formatted harddrives with my system installs I had pulled from the Amiga 4000 because Amithlon and Linux cn access the Amiga partitions.

If I am able to get an Amiga emulator running on my Linux machine the only things I am interested in are ImageFx and Turbotext. I have found Linux equivalents for most of the other functionality including owning the linux version of Pagestream. There is also hardware hanging around that I will eventually excavate.

I was working on a project where I was trying to write a motion analysis program to use with the Amiga.

Maryland just north of the city of Baltimore.

If any of these disks need to be dumped for preservation, I volunteer to receive them so I can upload them for everyone. I am in Boston, MA.

I would be interested in RenderFX and Pro Mix. I have them installed on my Toaster/Flyer but don't have the manuals. Also one of the Toaster Font Guides. Anything else Toaster related could interest me. I have everything else in your first list except the Lightwave manuals but I don't really use Lightwave that much and I have the Toaster manual which covers Lightwave.

I have an extra copy of the ImageFX manual if you need it.

To Ami GFX
Will get estimate on shipping the RenderFx and ProMix and Manuals. Probably want to send them USPS priority mail. Hope to floppies are still OK. Need you physical address send it to me at bdalzell@qis.net. Postage and packaging can be paid to my paypal account. Packaging should be around $5 to cover going to post office. I will let you know how much the postage is. Will write tomorrow.

Thanks for offer of ImagFX manual. I still have mine.

What do you do with your Amiga or Amiga emulator?

Media mail will be fine, or a Priority Mail flat rate padded envelope if they fit.

My Amigas are used to do art. The A2500 is mostly filled with stuff I did in the past and the A4000 gets used most actively. The A4000 Toaster is just getting played and experimented with at present. I do the same with them whether on the real thing or Winuae.

I'll send you an email and you can send me a paypal invoice. The payment will have the shipping details.

I don't know if FS-UAE is available in the Xubuntu distro but it is much easier to configure than EUAE. It should be available in mainline Ubuntu 14+ distro. The catch with UAE derivatives on a PC is that they aren't easily able to read floppies.

I'd take all the Oz ware left and Toaster Toolkit 4000.

Anything video or image related I'd be interested in.

I had sent you an email about another thread of yours also.

Thanks
