Rare fairy magic powered Amiga 500 on ebay

Now, I know this is a really hardcore amiga site.

I know you'll have all had a mate at school with a nintendo sixty FIVE, given to them by their Dad's Mate Who Works At Nintendo (tm), no you can't come round and see...

I bet a few of you even knew someone who said they could play PC games on their mega drive...

But have you ever met someone who says they've had their A500 upgraded to play 1200 games?


Apparently his mate at the Institute of the Motor Industry Accreditation did it for him?

Surely it's an "A1700", that explains all

Maybe it's just Kickstart and he didn't know any more differences? As you can see he has A500 games, so what was the point to have A1200.

he says it hasent been used for 20 years

modified for 1200 use oh dear.




its more likely that the seller has got confused,and doesent actually know what that machine is.

i would be very shocked if it was a 1200 motherboard inside a 500 case
