I agree Watson, it certainly makes a difference on where your Amiga is and how it's kept that matters. I have covers for my monitor and keyboard for my Amiga 4000, but i don't have a cover for the actual desktop box itself.
I wish someone would make a new faceplate for the Amiga 4000 desktop as...
Yeah i know it's down to the fire retardant chemical they added, and as you say you'd assume that newer plastics of today don't have this.
This is a shame and i def. also recall the sales pitch as being they "wouldn't yellow".
I guess i just need to have a think. It's a lot to spend to replace...
Yeah i'm sure i recall someone somewhere saying the same but i'd like to know for sure before i spend nigh on £90 on replacement keycaps.
I defo can't see anything on the A1200.net site either regarding this.
Thanks for taking the time to reply though Watson, very much appreciated.
Guys forgive my ignorance. But are the replacement keycaps from A1200 net going to yellow eventually like the ones in my A4000? Or are they made of newer plastics that don't yellow? I mean, i 'm assuming that they won't yellow at all and have read most of the info on the A1200.net site but can't...
Well i don't have it anymore as i have my Amiga 4000.
But in 1993 it had a GVP board with 68030 / 68882 running at 30MHz and 8MB RAM.
This was state of the art back then and was actually faster than the Amiga 3000 & 4000 we had in the studio.
Just thought i'd make my own one of these as i have replied to several other peoples but not done one myself.

Ah OK, just noticed the "sold" in the Title.
You say you have a few keyboards... You're obvs. not wanting to sell another to raise yet more funds for more Amiga purchases ;) ?
