hi yall, new to amiga
« on: February 23, 2026, 04:45:46 AM »
Hi everyone!, I'm completely new to Amiga computers or any old-school computers in general, i figured joining a forum would be pretty useful!!

I currently have an Commodore Amiga 2500 w/ a 1084s Monitor that I got out of my grandparents house after she moved out. I'm not sure if it even works but its been kept in a room under protective covers and looks pretty brand new. I also got a Brother HL-630 Printer with it and the computer accessories.

Among that, there were also a tonnnn of manuals, pamphlets, programs, and games that came with it like,

AutoDesk CAD
Baud Bandit
Gizmos
Journey
Black Cauldron
Lemmings
Lost Dutchman Mine
Some Carmen Sandiego Games
Batman Caped Crusader

Thats a few of them but theres like way more. Thats pretty much it, I did some research already and I just joined to see the community as well as finding any information on this stuff. Thanks and nice meeting y'all!! :3

Congrats.  Have you tested the 2500? Might want to check the battery has been removed or replaced.
