I'm not sure if I want to keep upgrading this 500+ with as much ram as possible up to 9 megs, a nice sidecar HD and maybe a accelerator. I would say the most I want to spend upgrading it is $250, because with that a could get a new old stock A1200 with a CF HD from Amigakit. So here's what I have now...
A500+ with full ECS, 1.5MB ram, 68010 processor upgrade, 3.1 roms, CA-88 2nd floppy and best of all no yellowing. Should I upgrade this 500 with at least a hard drive or should I just spend a little more for a 1200?
I have a nice A1200 in very pristine condition I would trade for your A500+ if you are interested. I also have a 68030 accelerator for it, but we would have to negotiate for it to be included in the trade. Both are like new in their original boxes and have hardly been used at all, since I bought another A1200 w/A1260 accelerator in it shortly after buying the A1200 brand new from AmigaKit a few years ago. (or was it eBay, I can't remember, but it was a brand new "Magic Pack" A1200 and I have used it less than 50 hours and still have the pristine box and everything that came in it).
Let me know if you are interested. I thought all the A500+ Amigas were in the UK and Germany? Is it NTSC or PAL and does it have a US keyboard layout, or a UK layout?
Edit: I hope you have already removed the battery from the A500+ mobo, so it has not leaked on it.
