I think the main problem was the floppy drive that stopped commerical fears AGA. I guess the whdload crew could explain more on that.

But that's where i got mentally stuck ;-) Original vs a possibly better and rarer clone...
€1000, Do you have to pay swedish taxes on that as well? Is it a swedish keyboard/TOS ? The prices on ebay are crazy.

However, if you actually intend to use the machine and not simply let it sit in a corner until its worth lots, the C-Lab would be the better machine for the simple fact its no doubt been revised and had a few bug fixes over the original Atari machine.

Frankly, i'd have either if I could justify the cost, but I can't, so will just have to hope I strike it lucky one day.
Sounds like my Amigas sitting in the corner at my parents
