I would not say he behaved "very well", but he was INCREDIBLY improved from the last time!  Definately tolerable, so far, from what I saw.

I've extracted many of these chips, and I never have problems EXCEPT with A2000 Agnus's.  For some reason, these sockets are extremely brittle, and break with or without the tool.

What the heck are you loading on startup that it takes longer than 30 seconds???  Or, do you have an old Seacrate hard drive?

You should be able to boot an A2000 in well under 30 seconds, but, it depends what's all going on in the Startup-Sequence, and of course, the hard drive.  Oh, and the SCSI bus, if it's spending a lot of time polling for devices.
