Oldschool computing (Commodore Amiga 500)

Featured Replies

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?

Woah <3: Old school! That mouse is just full of win :thumbup:

 

 

 

Have you looked around on the internet for any info?

Can it play Crysis?

 

 

 

That mouse looks like the Razer DeathHadder if you look close enough. :P

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.

I still have 3 Amiga computers, two A1200s and one A500. I also have loads of disks of games, OS, Demos and utils etc. PM me and I will see what I can do for you.
