Amiga 500 Emulators for Windows

The Amiga 500, also known as the A500, is the first low-end Commodore Amiga 16/32-bit multimedia home/personal computer. It was announced at the winter Consumer Electronics Show in January 1987 – at the same time as the high-end Amiga 2000 – and competed directly against the Atari 520ST. Before it shipped Commodore suggested a list price of US$595.95 without a monitor. At delivery in October 1987 Commodore announced that the machine would carry a US$699/£499 list price. In Europe the Amiga 500 was released in May 1987. In the Netherlands it was available from April 1987 for a list price of 1499 HFL (US$730 in 1987). While not the first computer to have an open architecture, the Amiga is considered due to its expandability as one of the early examples.
