April 4, 200917 yr This year at the local church's annual flea market, I picked up this little gem for only eight euros: It's a fully functional 1987 Commodore Amiga 500 with an extra disk drive for 1.0 MB 3.5" floppy disks, a mouse and two joysticks (not pictured). It was so complete that the boxes still came with the styrofoam. As far as I can tell so far the hardware is functioning perfectly. There's only two problems: There's no documentation (manuals, etc.), and no software. Any hints as to where I can find both (remember, nothing copyrighted, rules and all that) would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone else here have any experience running one of these fine machines?

April 4, 200917 yr Can it play Crysis? That mouse looks like the Razer DeathHadder if you look close enough. :P ~~Chaise91~~
April 4, 200917 yr Author No, but it can play stuff like the original Monkey Island games :D Yeah, I'm looking around, but unfortunately most Abandonware sites focus on DOS games rather than Amiga games.
