WAIT!!!
I got a soft spot in my heart for Amigas. Nice computers, with
excellent graphics (for it's time) and the first real multitasking OS
in a home computer. Back in the 80s and early 90s my Amiga 500 taught
me a lot about computers, especially regarding 3D modeling.
OK, I have to agree with John, get yourself an old 486 for CNC and
DRO stuff. But I just looked at Ebay, and people are paying good
money for complete Amiga 500 systems. I've seen prices ranging from
$25 to $325(!?!). Search through the completed items to see what
folks have payed, you'll be suprised.
Just keep that little feller off the trash heap, OK?
