Title: how many A500 New art were made?
Post by: Roman78 on November 29, 2005, 08:31:56 PM

As a formaly owner of an Amiga 500 New Art "Tiger" i interested how many are made of these machines. On Amiga Histroy (http://www.amigahistory.co.uk/bundles/a500special.html) they don't show that info.

There were two models - the whole series was limited to 10.000 if I remember correctly.

Yes 5000/model should be correct. I found both designs quite ugly - even when they came out...
By the way, this is the girl who designed it (Stefanie Tücking): http://www.tuecking.com/

Just don't collect'em. ;-) Better invest in a beautiful A1000 or A3000.
