What kind of adapters do you need for the A500?

The older computers look better

You should ask if they'll let you keep them. They're not much use to the school anymore.

i have one of these in my garage

Is that the Mac that's causing all that racket?

Too bad you didn't have the PA for the Amiga. The 500 was my very first computer. I wish I never got rid of it.

@Orlor I know, I really wish we did have the adapter. And yes, it was the Mac causing all the racket, I think it was the floppy drive.

MY ABSOLUTE VERY FIRST COMPUTER experience was on a Commodore PET in school!!

(I tend to forget that!!) I cant even remember the grade I was in, but we did the basic programming and learned about the floppy disk. Ironically My first purchase was a C64, not realizing I worked on the PET in school before.

Choose the 64 over EXPENSIVE PCs & MACs which had no color or sound and cost MORE to get those features PLUS you had to buy an expensive monitor to use the PCs. C64 went striaght to TV!
