Since I'm doing some rearranging and sorting I thought I'd snap some pics of the collection while it's visible. So below are some snaps of a small part of my "collection" for your viewing pleasure, enjoy

Reminds me of my old spare room!

Is that an atari panther on top of that Virtual Boy box?

[Trooper]

I wish No, it's a Sega SF-7000 Super Control Station

Funny looking Atari ST keyboard (i guess thats pre Stf/stfm) you've gotta get your A8 kit out a bit more

[Trooper]

I think that the Atari 260ST is french, I seem to remember that I've seen the same type of keyboard on another french computer. Most of my A8 stuff is stored away in the walk-in closet because of spaceissues

[carmel_andrews]

Ah that was it then, the inbuilt drive on the opposite side (left not right)

I thought that was test marketed in the states (as i think it first showed up at a CES show) i know that the EST (or STe) was test marketed in france, So just curious how the 260st was also test marketed in france (Germany definately)

That's a nice assortment of goodies. Can I be included in your will as a beneficiary? I promise to provide everything a good home.

2 things: (1) need anymore room? and (2) is the wife/girlfriend OK with this?

I've been classic collecting for about a year, and I already feel the "what's this leading to" pinch.

1: Oh yeah, I always need more room. Next time we move we'll probably go for something along the 7-8 rooms route
2: "OK with it" is kind of stretching it but she's not about to kill me in the next couple of days anyway She's got her own somewhat space- and moneyconsuming hobby so it's all good

Holy crap, an Epson portable! I have two, but neither of them have the power adaptor. What a cool little computer!

[Trooper]

I actually have 3 HX-20's, a PX-4 and a PX-8. They really are great little machines

[carmel_andrews]

Are they A600's in the first/second picture (or something that looks like an a600) you seem to have a few of them

Are any of them internally upgraded (thru the trapdoor) or just plain vanilla a600s

Edited by carmel_andrews, Tue May 26, 2009 4:45 AM.

[Trooper]

Hmm, I seem to remember that one is an Amiga 600HD and the other one is an Amiga 1200. I also have an Amiga 600 boxed. I don't know if any of them have been upgraded or not.

A couple of bonuspictures I found from before I started sorting through the stuff

The only things I recognize from the second pic is the TI99 and Vic-20. What are all the other goodies?

[Trooper]

What I can see in the picture is a TI99/4 (yup not a 4A), a VC-20, two Philips P2000 computers, a Microbee 128, a Philips Videopac G7200, a videointerface for the Epson HX-20 and if I'm correct that's a TI CC40 on top of the pile

[fdurso224]

You've got quite the enviable collection. I never knew about the Philips Videopac G7200. Why does the one you have look so different from the one on Old-Computers.com?

G7200 on OCC

[Trooper]

That's because I was typing faster than my brain was thinking It's not a G7200 it's an N60
