20Mb at least, 1Mb+ of memory expansion a bonus.

What a coincidence...

I have an A590 here, with power supply (I know this one works because it was traded to me by somebody upgrading a pc and it worked along with the 500 he gave me at that time). Let me open it up to see what's inside and I'll let you know what's what. It's even in the original 590 box. :-)

What you think it's worth? No reasonable offer is refused and I'd be happy to send it to somebody that needs it. I'm sure it wouldn't take offense from being ran upside down.

Just slap in a SCSI HD upto 1GB and populate the DRAMs to 2MB (make sure you have Rev 7 ROMs) and you are all set!  I have the Rev 7 Roms if anyone is interested.

I have a 1GB SCSI HD and it runs awesome under AmigaDOS 1.3

I would say around $50 is a fair price, now if it was MIB and not yellowed I would say $130 or so (Thats what I paid for mine MIB)

It has a WD93028-X (20MB XT IDE) drive in it.
No RAM.
Rev 6.1 ROMs. (I do not have any rev 7 roms here or I would put them in it.)
It has both the internal the power connectors

So, nothing exciting to write home about... but it's a working 590 in very nice condition. (no dints, scratches, dirt, etc) I'll take a picture of it and you tell me if it's "yellowed" -- I can't really tell because Amiga 500's were all beige to begin with and not white.
