#Amiga 2000 Availability
6 messages in this thread
Hi All,
I'm in the New York City area and have been finding it difficult locating a
dealer who has in stick the Amiga 2000. This has led me to believe that the
machine may still be in short supply. Is this true (i.e. Amiga 2000 is not yet
widely available)?…
.. Also, what about Amiga 2000 monitor (is the 2002 or the 1080 or some other
model number the correct CRT to purchase with the machine; what is the best
Commodore Amiga monitor to purchase when buying 2000 CPU — I have been a
Macintosh user for two years and have never had to face the problem of buying
un-bundled/separate components).
If someone knows the name of a reputable dealer in the New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut tri-state area I would be most grateful to hear about 'em (as I
stated earlier I'm having trouble locating an Amiga 2000 dealer — lots of
model 500's but no 2000's).
Thanks in advance,

Joe – try either J&R Music or Leighs Computers in NYC – J&R would be the most
likely to have a good supply of 2000's as they are probably the largest Amiga
dealer in this area. Sorry, I don't have either address but Leighs is in the
East 80's and there are a few J&R's. The one I used to go to was on Broadway
in the Wall Street area. The 1080 and the 2002 are basically the same monitor
– the 1080 has more of a matte finish then the 2002. I have both and they're
fine.

Marlene,
Thanks for the info… I'll check the Park Row (Wall Street area) J&R Music
World for in-stock model 2000's…

Joe:
I would think that you could find a dealer in your area. I know that
several of the people on this forum are from the area you mentioned. If all
else fails, I can recommend a dealer in Raleigh, North Carolina. I don't think
he would mind doing a little 'mail-order' type business. I bought my Ami 2000
from him after I moved to San Diego, Cal. If you are interested, drop me a
note. 73, bill
