I've decided to offer up the A500+ I've been having trouble with recently. When I first switched it on there was a funny smell and it lost power. I opened it and the battery had leaked, I removed it and the first time I tried to boot it was getting to the kickstart screen and then locking up after a few seconds but now the screen just stays black so this will need repairing. I've included pics of how the battery was and how it is now that I removed it.

Although the box says A500, it is an A500+ motherboard and the badge on the computer says A500 Plus too, it has kickstart 2.x roms installed (can't remember exact version). The trapdoor slot is empty.

I'm asking for £20 plus postage.

Forgot to mention includes PSU and tank mouse, no display cable or modulator though.

Sorry to hear the A500+ is not working - I had exactly the same issue with my 500+ last week, pretty much matched the photos you posted. Removed the leaky battery and applied some PCB cleaner but the screen remains black at startup. Interested to know if anyone knows of a fix the problem :-)
