Thats cool. Does the 1000 have a keyboard and any cool upgrades?

Very nice.
I have always hoped that I would get one of these

The A1000 mouse has that angled connector making it useless on the other models. Still I like the smaller keyboard and how it tucks in underneath the CPU.

You know there used to be a Mac emulator that would run on these things.... A-Max! that was it. And apparently Basilisk II has an Amiga version as well.
Once you inevitably get tired of trying to do anything useful with this stuff, you can send me the Amy monitor and I won't even charge you. Which model # did you get?

Then you don't have the a1000 original mouse.

That would be the normal 500/2000 mouse. I have a 1000 mouse here and it will work on any Amiga, but you would have to put something under the machine to install the mouse since it would hit the table.
I just keep it incase I get a 1000 someday (or trade it for something else).
Never throw out working equipment.
MacG4 are you going to take pics of the Amigas? Curious about how the 1000 looks.

Those Commodore monitors make great TV monitors for watching DVDs etc, or for an AV Mac's video out
