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.
Is it just a bit of fun, or is it research for my next FREEZE magazine? 🤔😊

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
Ein Stefanie-Tücking-A500, zuletzt gesehen 2016 am VCFe 17.0. Stefanie Tücking arbeitete überwiegend beim Radio. Man kannte sie insbesondere aus dem Fernsehen, sie hat in den 1980ern zwei Jahre die Musik-Sendung "Formel Eins" moderiert.

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!

Dieses Jahr im Sommer hatte ich ja einen Amiga 500 übernommen, nebst einem großen Karton Disketten und Zubehör. Mit in der Kiste: eine Dose Energy-Drink, originalverpackt. #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #amiga #a500
#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

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
Video: Modification of an Amiga 500, part 1
Last October, retro and Amiga fan 'Yawning Angel' won an Amiga 500 at the Workbench 2024 event in England. In the first part of a video series, he replaces the case and keycaps with new ones from A1200.net.

Alsaplayer is amazing. I love how it follows the Delitracker principle of modularity, low memory footprint, low graphical load on OSS AGA Denise, and many, many different file formats supported. In fact Delitracker supports even the most obscure Amiga audio formats

Somehow by accident I adopted a pet project for some long and cold winter evenings from @mazzoo. First, case and keyboard will need some attention. And yes, it came together with a (working) power supply, joysticks, a few books and a big cardboard box full of floppy disks. #vintagecomputing #retrocomputing #amiga #a500

The change from 8bit to 16bit was huge as you can see from this images. Both images are from the same game and very same screen. The game is "Jabato" a Spanish interactive fiction game of the 80s.
On the left you can see the 8bit MSX version, on the right you can see the 16bit Commodore Amiga 500 version.
