@neauoire mmm, but an Amiga a forever computer? They're basically self-destructing: if the caps don't take out the motherboard, the clock battery will.

There's also the small problem of expense. I have, about 30 minutes ago, recently left the World of Commodore show. Working A1200s were going for over $500 there. This is for a machine with a few MB RAM and a processor that runs in the 10s of MHz.
