	This machine was purchased new from The Software Hut in 2000. It ~~has~~ a GVP T-Rex II ~~CPU card~~, ~~a NewTek Video Toaster 4000~~, ~~and an Individual Computers XSurf NIC~~.		This machine was purchased new from The Software Hut in 2000. It was supposed to come with a phase5 Cyberstorm Mk-III 68060, but the charlatan who owned Software Hut silently exchanged it for a GVP T-Rex II, and also refused to support the machine after purchase, as it had reliability problems from the outset, which the owner basically said was my responsibility to deal with. Sadly, such behavior was rampant in the community in the first few years after Commodore's bankruptcy.

	At one point, the PSU failed and was replaced with a PC-style ATX power supply. It was also re-capped in 2014, but the machine does not presently work. I believe the processor daughter card might be hosed.		At one point, the PSU failed and was replaced with a PC-style ATX power supply.

	This Amiga is really really really nice. In fact, with the exception of the $800-plus PPC accelerators available, this Amiga has the fastest processor available on the platform.
