Yeah, Amiga.fr are quick and Hyperion are still doing the fixed price repair, I think it's 140 Euro?

I just repaired a CSPPC board for a customer yesterday (replaced 060 socket) who did contact both Amiga.fr and Hyperion and received replies within 2-3 days.

That's something you can test yourself.  If you have no booting problems, a very common fault is the soldering on the 060's SMD socket.  Press down hard on top of the 060 while powering up the computer and see if it boots.  If so, it's usually just a matter of replacing the socket.

The soldering on some of those boards is horrendous.  DCE's SMD processes could do with some refining to say the least.
