Amiga tips
« on: June 02, 2026, 10:00:23 PM »
Greetings all!

I'm hopefully collecting an Amiga 500 on Thursday from the great Glen of the CRG YouTube channel and was wondering if there's anything I should take into account beforehand when I get it? It comes with a Spitfire accelerator, a few games, a joystick, PSU, RGB SCART cable, mouse and a 2GB SD card with Workbench 3.1 in an SD to 44 pin IDE adapter. I know that Windows can't read Amiga file systems so I will make sure to use WinUAE if I wanna transfer files, but wanna make sure there's anything else that's important I should know.
On the way:
Amiga 500 which includes...
- Spitfire accelerated 68000 (14MHz, 8MB fast RAM)
- 1MB chipram
- Quickshot II Turbo or similar joystick
- SD to 44 pin IDE with Workbench preloaded on a 2GB card
- Robocop, Street Fighter 2, Advantage Tennis & Zool
- RGB SCART cable
