Hi all,
Here is my new A500. The old one died after more than 16 years of service !
Here is the successor. Quite good condition and working well, the yellowing keabord will replace with a clean one.
Only 19 Euros on Ebay.
Sorry for this "I'm the center of the world" email, but I'm so happy.

its kinda refreshing to see someone not bothered with yellowing and happy with stock_no_turbo_or_HDD,KS1.3-, A500

Nice! I agree with Orange that it's nice to see a nice simply Amiga being used as a games machine. I tried doing that once, but it ended up getting expanded :-)

Yes, as time is going I'm prefer to use basic systems.
I have :
- A600 + 030 + flashdrive + 32 Mo ram,
- A600 + HD + extra ram,
- A600 basic + flashdrive,
- A1200 basic + flashdrive,
- A1200 + 040 + HD + flashdrive,
- A1200 + PPC + 040 + BVision.
And you know what ?
The systems I use most is :
1 - A600 basic + flashdrive,
2 - A1200 basic + flashdrive.
The system I use the less is the A1200 + PPC
Getting old is a strange thing ...

I powered my A600 for the first time in months earlier today. I invested so much into customizing the environment of OS 2.1. It was like bumping into an old girlfriend. The screen was so clean and uncluttered.
I love the look of an un-expanded A500, also very clean look. It sort of symbolizes power and elegance in my mind.

I keep a box/stock A1000 to play older games on. It's great.
It's usually too expensive to expand the A1000, so it's "safe" :)
