My Midget unused.... 5000 in the case, a hard drive that was a bit of a surprise when I opened that particular A500 and a 40MHz gift. None of these items were anticipated when I got them. They kinda were a pleasant surprise. The 500 with the Viper was advertised as a 500 upgraded to a 1200 and nobody bid on it. I think I got it for £25.

My Midget sits in its box above a mint Jupiter Ace and Spirit.
