    Hi Chris, Nice video. On a moment in your life, you have so much components that you dont know witch and where. Sometimes i must search in my stock what i can find. Greetings from Steven from the Netherlands

    Chris, any chance of doing a series on how to play old amiga games in 2024? Just seeing these old amigas live again warms my heart greatly, I was bought up on 8bit computers like the ZX Spectrum etc, seeing an amiga for the 1st time blew my mind, especially the games. I know it can be done via emulation but I prefer the hardware versions. I bet I am not the only person who would enjoy this? Lots of regards from New Zealand!!

    There is one of my rules, when it comes to retro-spare parts: Always buy at least two of it ! I guarantee one or the other will break or you will never find it again - haha. And yes - I ordered a lot of stuff and cannot find it. It simply disappeared. I am sure, nobody took it. it just dematerialized.

    Very nice work. I've kind of steered away from Amiga 600's over the years. They always smell a little fishy ;)

    Congratulation, Chris for another fix and giving an A600 a new life. I am interested in that self running demo in the left top corner. What is it? It looks cool. Wish to build one myself. Hope you can give me a hint? 😊 thx.

    Dumb question but how much do you charge for repairs? Debating getting an Amiga 500 on eBay that's probably broken since I can never find a decent one in my area.

    paying that much for those connectors bc you seem to not care about costs is the reason the price is that far up, @Chris.
    Those connectors are still available but ppl seek out ebay and such and get scammed by the prices YOU helped being established.
