Somewhere in the basement or attic, that one box is still lurking around. The smell of nostalgia ... well, maybe more the smell of mothballs and dry wood, but who cares. 😆 The smell of nostalgia and ... an Amiga 500. Can you still remember the smell of the machine? (I can.)
Then you shouldn't hesitate any longer, because the "old girlfriend" can be given a new lease of life with all kinds of help, and Benjamin Blundell has not only done just that, he has captured the entire process in words and pictures.
And the old girl can be given quite a run for her money. In addition to the obligatory cleaning of the case, Ben provides her with a modern CPU replacement, the floppy drive is replaced with an emulator, the memory is extended, and otherwise Ben gives you the full rundown of all the makeup tips for the old, new girlfriend. 💄
In addition to the article, Benjamin has also uploaded the accompanying video to YouTube. Thanks for that.
Honestly, isn't it time to finally open that box now? 🤷♂️
