| September 29, 2004, 11:35:07 PM I bought my Commodore A1200 on preorder when they were first available, so I was one of the first in North America. The label says "Made in UK", but the mobo says it was assembled in Scotland. To this day I have no yellowing whatsoever, and it's set up next to a window. :-? |

| September 16, 2004, 11:44:21 AM It was next to a window from 1996-1999 where it was used constantly. Then it was put into storage (in its original box) in a cupboard until 2002 when it was used for about another year, but not next to a window this time. Its also the first time ive noticed the yellowing process beginning. :-( |

I know its the sunlight, but is it the direct sunlight or just sunlight in general? My 1200 is in a dark room with no bright sunlight so it seems to be holding ok... |

| December 21, 2003, 05:04:44 PM I've had my A1200 for 3 years and no yellowing yet :-) Just clean it loads and stop it getting dusty |
| Karlos Posts:16867 | December 10, 2003, 12:09:05 AM My old system has yellowed up a treat. I cant actually see yellow, but well, I can see white and it sure doesnt look like a sheet of pristine white A4 paper, thats for sure! |
