The A1200/A600/A4000/CD32 are all piles of rubbish from a service techs pov. They're all as disposable as the company that designed them. How convenient and non-forward looking they were.

Only joking LOL:roflmao:
In all honesty though I've never had any of my amiga's fail, and I ran a 1200 for about 10 years about 6 hours per day and it was abused as well with internal 3.5" hard drive with ram and standard PSU.
Oh hang on, yes I have had an amiga fail...my A600 had the keyboard go down...the connector at the end (is it carbon or something?)...it went soggy and disintegrated. I did a fix by cutting a 1/16 or a little less off the end and plugging it back in again and it worked....until I had to take the keyboard off again a few weeks later. I suppose some of them just wear out with age, whilst others seem not to. So had to buy a membrane from Ebay. Other than that...no problem.
Oh, the keys that went down on my A600 were all the top row (Escape, F1 to F10 and Help). The others were fine.
