Fender take a perfectly good Stratocaster and other guitars then hack away at them til they're all battered and "Reliced". You may have started a new trend there Dougal.

Amiga 600HD, Workstation, Philips 8833 and Star LC10
Part of my new acquisitions!
The 600HD is in good condition and still sealed! Unfortunately the hard drive
has passed away so will have to fit a CF instead.
Also missing the software and manuals but I have just sourced these.
Monitor and Printer are boxed and working too.
Overall, a good find, and at a 'hard to refuse' price.

Bought this from USA Ebay
It's good but you do need to understand C or ASM. I've used parts of it in programs that I've written.
Jeez you lot have been buying some awesome stuff lately. I sprung a measly 13 quids on xbla and bought Trouble Witches Neo and Triggerheart Exelica. For the price they're very good shoot em ups, well worth it imho. Tried Sine Mora but just didn't feel comfortable with it.
Arrived from Spain today.

So were you the one who won the auction at the other place? I had my eye on it, but opted for a T-Tech PCB milling machine instead (and yet another SX-64, it was too pretty to pass up).

I hang out at an engineering site and try to help out with Modbus questions. I was looking through the manual for a boiler for the Modbus map and setup instructions. When I got to that section, the manual had a QR code and a link to the "Secret Modbus Manual". I made sure to pass on what I thought of that stupid stunt to the manufacturer.
BTW, nice scope. I've had my eye out for one as well. Please let us know what you think of it (even start a new thread if you would).

Wowzers! Like I mentioned to Heather, I'm looking for a scope as well, but have no idea what to get. Any recommendations?
We have about five here at work, I plan on picking the brains of the BASF boys to see what they think. But we use ours for looking at paint, not solder joints.

Got my self a nice addition to my A1200 tower project. The best of the best.

Thanks Ed! I hadn't seen that review but I checked every label and marking on the box and found nothing.
They did finally email the manual to me. I don't agree with the reviewer that the manual is unhelpful but it is a bit low on information. I wrote back my feelings about the download process for the manual and the person wrote back saying they totally agreed with me and have been trying to get management to make it easier.

Nice
I have an Askania brand stereo microscope in my garage. Got it cheap from eBay because the seller mislabeled it and did not know what it was.
You really need a microscope when doing something like this
Yes, it is a vero board in the background
I took the photo through the microscope.

Nice! I've fancied a Panasonic MSX Turbo R every now and then. I like the quirky design of the Panasonic as it gives an impression that it has more features than it in reality has.
A guy posted an ad on a local for sale site, whent to buy it all and what a haul.... My poor friend had to have the "left overs" on his lap, what you do not see is that he also has an A2000 & A3000 under his feet....

We can start another thread if you like but picking this scope was a bit of a random gamble based on information from the manufacturer's site, Reviews on Amazon, and searching through Google. I was looking at a scope from the same company that cost $90 less than the one I purchased but I figured I could grow into the one I received more than I could with the lower level one.
From what I found online and from my limited use, AmScope offers high quality product for the price. One thing I really liked about this scope as opposed to the lower level one is the quad zone lighting on the LED ring. You can turn on or off each of the four sections of lights, letting you adjust the light level and shadows.
I just purchased the Canon SLR adapter so I can take pictures through the scope. I'll post some images once I have some.
