Hey, what are most of you using your Amiga 500's now a days? I have'nt used mine since 1992 when I used to order thorugh "Bare Bones software".
The A500 isn't very useful these days, just a tinkertoy, games machine.
Better look at an A1200, A3000 or A4000 if you want to do anything else than play old games.. ;-)
(it's not really worth the money it takes to upgrade an A500 to "current" spec, so only do that if you really have too much money on your hands)
Oh, and my A500s (5 of them, I think) are making themselves useful by sitting inside a cardboard box.
I use my A4000 and A2000 when I need a Real Amiga - everything else gets done on the Pegasos or PC compatibles, depending on what I'm doing, of course.. :-)
