Poor abused Apollo 1240 :-(

This is a very sad Apollo 1240, it came to me today with some Amiga bits I just picked up. I doubt this could ever be repaired it looks like someone has viciously attacked it :butcher

Poor little Apollo R.I.P

There are some real sicko's in this world ... :(

Too bad really.

I'm sure he was a Blizzard fan.

It's definitely doesn't worth the time even for looking at it :(
The damage is indeed too heavy :thumbsdown:

Maybe hoarding some parts like Mach chips or anything else for other defect Apollos can be the only use for that board.

And of course, this one cannot be fixed....

Hi Steve

Bad to see this my friend :(

Is a recycled board or you bought it?

I hope you didn't pay top pounds for this one ...

It really depends on how deep those scratches are, maybe you should ask Stachu100.
But just looking at it, like most say here, R.I.P. Apollo 1240 :blink:

@ fitzsteve

if you going to put this in the bin could i have it to size up ?

thanks james

Hi Steve,

Card looks bad indeed...
But I can buy it for spare parts to repair other boards. If you are ok with this idea please PM me.

Cheers,
Stan

Is that the 040 CPU that's surface mounted? I have never seen a Apollo 1240 card like this one before.

Are they common?
