Not too long ago I wrote a response to a post where the original poster picked up some Amiga's and one had a bad disk drive. My response was to clean the drive with compressed air and a head cleaner thing.
Anyhoo, what I just now thought was that I had made that kind of response before and that maybe there should be something where we can point new people (or old, forgetty people) to that says what to do when you get an old Amiga to make it good for using or suggestions for what to check for before getting started so it doesn't explode. Something that has all the suggestions and good ideas: clean the drive, replace the battery, etc.
What, I'm not going to write it? Nope. I'm not good at that sort of thing and I'm not an expert on the subject. I'm really really good at making off-the-cuff website suggestions. So, in that capacity, see ^^^^.
Am I suggesting something that already exists? Then, I suggest :smack:.
