Himanshu, I'm afraid that the 500 does not have any hardware Miz-Dos add-ons nor are any rumoured that I am aware of. The expansion options are different for all three Amigas. The Bridgeboard is a clone card for the 2000. The SideCar is a clone box for the 1000. The 500 may be able to use a doctored 'Transformer' to run Miz-Dos. Transformer is a software emulation of the Intel silicon. It runs slow and does not (I think) run on AmigaDos 1.2 as supplied in hardware on the 500 but there is a patch available somewhere (probably here) that will allow it to run under 1.2. You might consider buying a used model 1000 as many people are trading up to a 2000 altho I don't know why. Any 2000 lurkers reading this, have you experienced a floppy keyboard? I have seen and heard of 2000 keyboards that flex within the keyboard case when typing.
