ScuzzBlog: Diaries October 2022 Entry 27th October 2022: Post 1: Amiga 500 - Disc Company Dicovery Pack. Amiga 500 - Disc Company Dicovery Pack. One thing that the Amiga will always be remembered for is the special presentation packs that were produced for the various models, particularly the cost reduced versions that adorned the shop windows in the days. Always colourful and exciting to view, they really did stand out from everything else on sale. Over the years I have tried to collect as many of the boxed versions as possible with some success. However the early A500 'starter' packs have somewhat alluded my grasp. I was so pleased this last week to snag a near mint copy of the 'Discovery' pack that supported the same name full box version by the Disc Company. There were at least three boxed starter sets that contained sets of these and other Disc Company disk sets. They tend to feature software such as Kindwords and also had either DPaint or Fusion Paint plus a sprinkling of games. I have featured in the past Ports of Call which seemed to be one of their favourite games. The biggest test for me with the set was whether the disks were still working. I am pleased to say that they were ADF copied and tested without fault. So pleased I have to say. I decided not to take the manual out of the cellophane as it was still in the original packaging. This particular set appears to be from around 1990, though others are much earlier, almost to the very birth of the Amiga 500. Amiga 500 - Disc Company Dicovery Pack.
