A few years ago I was diving into my storage locker and was delighted to find a long-lost box containing my Amiga 500! I gave it a quick cleaning, hooked it up to a GVP 'sidecar' which formerly had a SCSI drive inside but which I upgraded to a SCSI2SD, and tried running some classic games. As you can see, it works like a champ :)

I shared this pic on Reddit and Twitter and ever since, I've been amused to occasionally see this pic pop up in random posts, on the odd blog, etc. I no longer have this table or these chairs, but the A500 has a "forever home" in my collection.

I hope you guys get a kick out of this!

That's a nice A500 setup and a great photo!
Cherish and enjoy the old girl! She deserves it!
 
I remember seeing this picture during a random search for something . I just don't recall where it was posted now, not that it matters, unless someone was trying to claim it was there's of course, which does happen from time to time.

Thanks for sharing. :) (y)

Thanks, and agreed! We've exhibited this machine publicly a few times, and it's always a big hit.

I just look forward to the day that I find someone claiming that it's their pic, so I can BOMBARD them with all the 'outtake' pics from this same photo shoot 😂

Nice Amiga 500 there :)

I got Amiga 500 Plus in May of 1991 and felt like it was yesterday!

Amazing Times of playing it thought :)
