  1. The Final Mod for Big Red (my A500)? 🤔

    Giving the machine HDMI out functionality. Easy right?

    Well, this did not go to plan, and was a challenge, but how did it all pan out? 😅

  7. Do it yourself: Dual SD card and ethernet controller for Amiga 500
    The a500-sd-plus-controller is plugged onto the CIA A chip of the Amiga 500, enabling the use of two SD cards and a 10 Mbit network connection. One SD card is intended as hard drive, the other as a hot-swappable medium.

  17. My #amigaCD32 collection. All of these are cd32 games, although some of the boxes i piecemeal'd together from #amiga 1200 or 500 boxes. The #turrican 2 box there is the rare msdos release, but i have a burned copy of the homebrew #a1200 port in it. #lemmings is the #cdtv version, which works on a cd32. Jim Power is the recent #piko #port in the #a500 box. I *almost* have an #aminet collection that spells out aminet, im missing vol 23. I am an #american. <3 amiga. #retrogaming #retrocomputers

  22. Found this in an auction for a bargain. Untested, sold as scrap. I couldn’t resist. Does it work? What revision it is? Is there a memory expansion? It’s like a mystery bag!

  32. #Amiga #RetroComputing folks:

    Are there any PS/2 keyboard adapters out there for the #A500 that allow the internal keyboard to still operate, i.e. with a pass through cable connection? Or is there some reason that this isn't technically possible?

    I'd like to hook up my A500 to my KVM, but keep the internal keyboard usable if I can, without having to open it up and remove/reinstall the adapter each time.

    There are some people who many decades ago ventured into vim on a Unix system
    When they came out, they came out of an Amiga A500 system; no one knew how they got there and they had a copy of the book Christine by Stephen King

  42. Remember the Commodore Amiga A500 I've got from @mazzoo recently? After carefully checking all the power supply voltages a few days ago, today I tried a first power-on. And well … it could have been worse 🙂 Looks like it's worth to invest more time on restauration. #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #amiga #a500
