That, and the fact it seemed to take Commodore so long to release
anything when they weren't shooting themselves in the foot. I've still
got my A500+ collecting dust in the cupboard and can remember when the
A600 came out thinking "all they've done is shrink my old machine".

The SCSI Zip drive I bought for it in 93/94 is still working too :-)
