My Amiga 500 is sexy :D

[Calranthe]

The Amiga was and is my favourite computer, and now I own one of the sexiest A500's out there, it is a custom job by retropassion, motherboard deep cleaned ultrasonic, recapped and serviced, gotek drive installed, White painted and protected main case, with a custom painted black keyboard, scart and HDMI adaptor and optical mouse adaptor. Konix Speedking Joystick. I am in love! I play Dungeon Master and all the fun classics on a 47" TV

Looks great, I used to have one of these back in the day.

Have you upgraded the memory capacity?

Memory is 1mb I am going to be upgrading it internally using what is called a pistorm, basically you use a raspberry pi 3a and a daughter board to emulate a 68000 processor, give HDMI, Hard Drive and even move up to a 68040 cpu emulation with lots of options including 128mb ram and a 40gb HD I mean its hotrodding the Amiga

Nice! Does it work though? I remember copying games for the Amiga when double drives first come out. I think I used an app called xcopy! The one with the light bulbs.

Yep the Gotek drive reads the ADF files and you can setup blank files for saves.
Here is my newest Dungeon Master Save loaded.

Looks good, how good is the quality of the paint job?

I’ll need to send my A1200 in for a recap. Been putting it off as I’m slightly reluctant to let a courier drop kick my pride and joy about.
