Hi from Birmingham, UK

Hi Just joined as I've bought two old amiga 500's to refurb. One to keep stock and one to modify.

The first one I bought (Didn't realise it was French) was working except a few keys and not too bad condition. Turns out the 3300uF caps were leaking so had out came the trusty soldering iron.

Bought some keys from ebay - Very yellow (Notice the 2 x F4 keys)

Cleaned up nicely and retrobrighted the white keys.Need to do the case and darker keys next - They are a little uneven.

Just need to do the second one and dig out the old games!
