Instead of making a nice clean cut with a Dremel it appears ripping the side open and then replacing it with some random plastic/tape/glue etc is the way to go :-/

Then to say condition is refurbished is a bit of a stretch.

I was thinking it was Bondo - fiberglass body filler.  Maybe too many years of working on cars made me guess that.  ;)


Could be right too, couldn't really make out what it was. Hmm make an Amiga case out of bondo? ;-)

Its just a piece of plastic, anybody can replace the top cover....

By hacking another case to get the Amiga logo back? Blasphemy! ;-)

By hacking another case to get the Amiga logo back? Blasphemy! Also in this case it proves not everyone can replace the top cover ;-)
