Hey to you Tiago,
Sorry mate no pic's.
I bought the vic 20 about 1987-1988 and it was second hand.
I couldn't afford an A500 then as they were still about $800 or better but my Father, Brother and Uncle had bought new 500's.(all were 1.3 wb)
I next bought a second hand A500 + with a A590 20 MB harddrive probably by the end of 88 early 89.(has 2.0 wb)
Still got the 500 plus and A590 and still working.
Then I bought a new A600 but carn't remember how much I paid for it.
Still got it and the last time I used it, it was working fine.(has 2.04 wb)
Latter I bought an A1200 and it was in a computer shop window as a demo unit, the keys had discoloured from the sun. They couldn't sell it and I got it real cheap, though it still had original box and manuals.
This is now in a old server tower and other than the 24 speed cd rom and the 3 1/2" 800 MB harddrive is totaly stock.
I gave all my amiga stuff away at the start of 2008 and only just got it back a few weeks ago.
About the time I was looking for stuff for the tower I was buying old pc's for cables and power boxes and would often come across A500's at the tip shops - junk shops
and bought some.
Now I have 5 - A500's (wb 1.2 and 1.3 )working and some for spares.
loopy.
