I poured a full mug of coffee across my A1200 while it was on. Oops. It flooded the whole thing, and I ripped the power cable out of the back as soon as I realised what I'd done. After a pretty intense clean out it did work fine...
...but only for a week. After that, one of the serial chips cooked itself & bubbled up inside. ook. Whatever caused that killed the whole machine, it wouldn't boot. I replaced the chip with one from a broken A1200 motherboard I had spare, but still no go - it was utterly dead.
