What is your worst Amiga hardware experience?

If you're referring to a rapidroad, it's not your fault lol

Ironically, my rapid road is still working after I think 5 years and being used in several of my Amigas and is currently in a checkmate case attached to a SOLAS, and using a SFF power supply that Jens was convinced would likley result in the universe ending.

My A4000T/CSMkIII 060/CV643D dying from night to day sometime in 2002, and no one around being able to diagnose and, let alone, fix it.

Since I needed a working computer ASAP, ended up selling it for parts shortly after, then buying my first PC ever.

That event left me bitter with Amiga things in general for almost 20 years, when I finally surpassed it and slowly made my way back to the scene.

Should you ever need a shoulder to cry on, i'm there for you, brother. We will weep silenty for eachother.

At one point, I had an A2500/030 w/ a VIdeo Toaster, an A4000, and a complete '040 NeXT Cube system w/ monitor, each salved for about $5 each from a university surplus auction. Practically cheeseburger money. I eventually sold all three on eBay about 25 years ago for a few hundred dollars each..to buy a Dell laptop.
