Its been a rough start of the year for me. As you all should know, and those that don’t I hope will understand the repair of classic systems isn’t a full-time job for me. I do this work mostly out of the love for the platform and to ensure they continue to live on. That being said I have had a lot of things sent in over a very short time. With my full-time regular job taking my time, me just getting over a massive case of the flu and a long trip scheduled to start on February 24th through March 23rd things WILL be returned slowly. I just want to make sure you are all updated and know I am working my best to get things done. As always if you can’t wait I fully understand and just ask you contact me so we can arrange for a return before I leave on the 24th.

I just added a 500 to my collection that has some dead/dodgy keycaps lights in addition to my 2000 and CD32, so I’m still interested in your eventual services. I’ll get back with you late March.

Thanks for understanding. Fixing the key light is a simple process if putting in a new LED is all. The entire keyboard may need a new membrane though. Its worth doing even if its not the complete issue. You can find them here: https://amigastore.eu/682-keyboard-membrane-amiga-500-600-1200.html

Thanks! I should clarify: It’s a ‘blinking error code’ keycaps thing, meaning there’s a fault in the keyboard stuff. It’s intermittent and depends on pressure and position of the keyboard. Again, chances are I need a new membrane like you suggested. The original owner was an intensive coder, and smacked the return key probably millions of times.

Hi,
I have an A500 that needs a recap, and installation of a Terrible Fire A530 accelerator. Would this be something that I could send to you in April maybe?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark, yes we can talk about that when I get back from this work trip and the end of next month.
