A500

My first computer, as in the first one that I had providence over, was an Amiga 500. It took me back down memory lane to see one at pcmuseum.ca, www.pcmuseum.ca/details.asp?id=149. This pack-rat/archivist even has the external hard drive that I had.

The A500 was a particular source of joy for me because of 1) it brought spell-check into my life 2) all of the pirated games my family had acquired (statue of limitations) and 3) because it could use our Sega Genesis controls for games!
