I ended up buying Flack's Amiga 500 after the Oklahoma Video Game Expo. I searched everywhere for an Atari ST for FoK, but there were none to be found. Flack did end up buying a pile of MacIntosh / II GS stuff, which I shall let him elaborate on if he is ready.
Flack had the thing running Borrowed Time, so we were all good there. The first thing I wanted to do was get the Amiga hooked up to a monitor. We used a scandoubler to run Guild of Thieves on an LCD monitor at the show, but I have a number of monitors that are A-OK with a horizontal frequency of 31.5K, which is what the Amiga apparently looks for.
I bought this in the short term: http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=183, mostly because it was only about $22. The goal I have here is to play all the Amiga games I missed, and see my text games working on a real Amiga.
Amiga .ADF files are everywhere, and I had been collecting them in anticipation of this day. However, I am not sure if there's a way to take an .ADF disk image and turn it into a physical floppy disk. I don't think there's a hard drive solution for the 500, which is a bit sucky. I'm going to read up and see if there's a way to make Amiga disk images physical floppies, but any advice on the subject is greatly appreciated.
