The Commodore CDTV arrived this morning. I have unboxed it and had it up and running. It looks very cool, black keyboard and black controller. It has to be said though, computing power has come a long way in 20 years. When I get more time I will take a few pictures and post them up.

Commodore CDTV :clap: :good: :bow2:

In the terms of a gearhead your running a 57 Chevy, with an inline 6 as a comparison, nice but not quite up to speed :!: :clap: :good:

Now that is something you do not see very often,i recall seeing one in a specialist computing Pc / Amiga shop once but never saw another unit ever again and certainly do not know anyone else who has ever owned one. 8-)

I wish I could get a Amiga, but they are as scarce here as pigs that can fly.

Anyway Congrats on the CDTV

Pictures?! I do really want to see this one! And I must agree, I used my grandfathers Amiga back when I was younger and loved it, absolutely loved it.

Can't wait to see some actual pictures!! PS, where did you find it? Ebay, Craigslist?

These are just quick photos. I will try and take some more detailed images with the digital camera later on this weekend.

For now this will give you an idea.
