Note :
I have an unused Amiga 1200 with a 68030 40MHz cpu lying around, which i would
gladly donate if it is needed. It hasn't got a harddisk tough, and i would
prefer that it would be sent to someone not so far away from strasbourg,
france, as i cannot afford much in posting fee right now. I don't have anykind
of fast access for it though, so i cannot run it myself.
(I also have another A1200, with powerup board and a 68040 cpu, but this one i
want to keep).
Friendly,
Sven Luther
