You have *GOT* to be kidding! Is there anything there:
"Commodore Amiga 4000 CPU in a HighFlyer expansion with Newtek-Video Toaster 4000, (3) hard drives=15 gigs., Piccasso graphic board, (2) TBCIII (time base corrector), Emplant (Mac Emulator) board, Studio 16 sound board, Commodore 1084s color Monitor, Panasonic 7750 SVHS with frame advance chip "
that warrents this kind of a price? Yes, it's a nice system, however, it doesn 't say anything about an accelerator, or a way of allowing extra RAM, and it just says Piccasso, not Piccasso IV. I can't imagine the video specific HW being worth anywhere near $7000.

For that price I can get a brand new, decked out G5 that can do the same kind of work, only better.
