That's what I thought, but KS1.0/AmigaOS1.0 (CLI only, no GUI) were
released but perhaps only to developers. That's what made me think that the
possibility of pre C= Amiga's being out there may be possible.From reading
some Amiga history from various sources it sounds like pre-C= Amigas were
released at some point.

In typical Amiga tradition, details of the earliest days of Amiga are a bit
sketchy, so you're probably right. 
They did make Joysticks (or similar) however, and they must be true
collectors items by now I should imagine ;-)

 Regards,

Clockmeister.
