Don't throw it away!  (1) - it might be fixable, and (2) - you could possibly still use the housing or the square wiring lead to build a new power supply (plenty of people have installed mini AT and ATX-style PSU's inside the A500's original housing).

I've gotten into the habit of saving a copy of any interesting Amiga-related hardware hack pics I come across, for that very same reason.  You never know when the thread or links will be gone.  *sigh*  Some things on the Internet don't last forever!  :(
