AMAZING that a 24-year-old Amiga still works?
I was going to mention that. It's interesting to me that the later
amigas have been actually less reliable than the 1000 because of
leaking caps and that crappy battery. Cars have made it much (much)
longer than that and still worked, why not computers?
