One of the games I used to play on a borrowed A500 was Speedball.
Had great fun playing Datahopa with this game.
The A500 had a dodgy monitor (everything was green) partly the reason I had it. Played this game loads with the dodgy monitor.
Got the monitor fixed and Datahopa could no longer work out what players were his and I could beat him easily. No fun for either of us.
Oh yes we did have fun with this game, until we got the monitor fixed, that's what can happen when you are colour-blind like me.
Was a good game though 8) nice find Snowy
Found this. It is about the hardware but this is electronic porn to me :P
Amiga teardown.

Speedball on the Amiga was a great game, used to play it all the time when I had my Amiga :thumbsup:
The guy in that vid knows the names of the chips and what they all do, he is more of a nerd then me :LOL:
good vid :thumbsup:
I knew what the 4256 chips were (they're the same RAM chips that the Atari 800XL used, and that was the first "out of the box" computer I ever modded), but that was about it. It was nice to learn that the other numbers on the chips/boards were date codes, and how to decipher them. :)
