Will probably bid on one when they inevitably show up on ebay.  :laughing:


If you find one ebay it will probably show up looking something like this! :laughing:

I don't suppose you'd be willing to undertake transplanting components from a donor A500+ board, re-capping as you go, would you?


Dewd..........  :python:

Wot?

Acill's response is exactly what I meant by "squash that idea" LOL

Thats a lot of parts to transplant and a lot of change to get bad parts. The chips are fine, as are the ports and connectors. the caps and resistors and other things not so much.

I would do it if you sourced all the other stuff as new other than chips, ports and power connectors. I would never reuse a cap or resistor after removing it. Not worth it.

Also your 3rd in line after Kirk and mine get done, lol!

But hey! He's willing to do it!

Geeeeeze! I didn't know it doesn't come with basic components! How many of these did they sell? Is everyone supposed to find donor motherboard? That would be like murdering 250 hamsters (errr, Rock Lobsters) then chucking their little corpses! The horror!!!  :eek:
