FOR SALE MEGA ST CASE UK

[JezC]

As I like to say, 'good luck with that'.

Also, unicorns.

I bought 2 Mega ST1 for half the price of 1 Mega keyboard. The Megas was however sold as broken/parts and the keyboard was almost mint condition.

Now all @rubber_jonnie needs is a proper Mega ST keyboard...

As I like to say, 'good luck with that'.

Also, unicorns.

They exist, I picked one up for $40 from Sydney last year. I half hope I don't fix my second Mega so I don't have to look for another keyboard.

I thought you meant the Unicorn...
My daughter would probably commit numerous crimes to get an actual Unicorn...

I expect many daughters would commit actual crimes to get their hands on a actual Unicorn!

@DoG My first Mega 4, for £65, came via a FB buy and arrived missing a Blitter and a sound chip. Case also cut for a replacement floppy. Now something of a flagship in my collection with a Gotek, internal IDE and dual ROM with Emutos/2.06. My Mega 1 also came via FB at £50, but was in excellent condition and now sports a patched TOS 1.04 so it can boot from the internal Megabus IDE adapter. Sadly NIETHER came with a keyboard, but I do have an Eiffel, which is something.

As for my current @exxos sourced machine, I think he's selling it me in parts, so maybe there'll be a keyboard down the road somewhere!!

It has an odd FDD fault and a RAM error too, so working on those.

I only have 2 keyboards, both need repairs and new key caps. The only other mega stuff I have is my test board now. I've got 2 hard drives like the metafile but 3rd party. Mostly I got them for diagnosing DMA faults. They be up for grabs once I test them out.

My two Mega1 only cost £20 each from the same eBay seller. Both PSU had a blown main fuse. So never used or tested them. The plan was to have something with more power anyway so I could attached more goodies inside. So I use MeanWell RT-65B in them (Got -12V if I need for gfxcards). One had RAM fault. Yellow cases, No RF-shield (but who cares) and no battery cover for either of them. Bought one almost mint Mega Keyboard without cable and one, new in a box, pristine TT-keyboard from an known Atari seller. Just asked him over email if he got any Swedish keyboards. And He did.

I also got an Eiffel, with screen, box and I just soldered in a NTC temp sensor on it. Was annoyed every time that it displayed +6 degrees on boot.

Keyboards are DEFINITELY of interest

Going to be a cold day when @JezC cons someone to trade a mega for his keyboard. Although if he does it will be a mega with a buthered floppy opening. Maybe just a buthered mega case without the board for the keyboard..

@PaulJ Now I've got the second Mega ST I'm not really looking for any more...at least not until I reduce the number of STF/Ms a bit

Though I do have 3 Mega keyboards & only 2 Megas, one is short a couple of key tops & I've not yet found a source for replacing them

I won't worry about adding to the collection until H4 #2 & the H5 are sorted.
