Hi cameng, so there's at least 3 of us Adelaide Amiga owners on here, awesome! :cool:

I had a mate that had a 500 in the early 90's and it made our family pc look prehistoric! I managed to get my own back in 96 and then stupidly sold it in 98 (was a bit poor at the time).

2 weeks ago I stumbled across a pommy guy selling a very clean 500+ for 8£'s (no psu) and grabbed it (shipping was expensive but worth it) and I'm about to go on a massive upgrading spree! :D

There are a lot of goodies in the UK, but also in Victoria too. I actually saw a guy sell an A500 on e-bay for only $15 in Melbourne. This was only due to him not offering freight.

Do you have a 512K trapdoor expansion for it? or maybe it was standard with the A500+. I also maybe able to get some hard drives as well:)

Yeah I saw a 3000 & 4000 in Vic for 3-4 hundred but its the 500 that is nostalgic for me.

The 500+ has the ECS chipset (same as 600) and 1mb ram standard. I'll add a 68kide card to it and a 4gb cf card as a hdd.
