I'm joining here in the hope that I can find some good advice in maintaining and building up my collection of Amigas. I have 4 of them: an A1000 I originally purchased in 1986; an A3000 that I bought in about 1995 or so, another A3000 and an A500 which were both given to me in the 2000s. Add the numbers up to get 7500! The A3Ks and the A500 are mostly running, so I'm now concentrating on the 1000. I unboxed it in the last few months to find that the note that I had packaged with it last time I put it away (year: 2000) was still accurate: yellow screen and nothing else. I also observe now that the screen is not yellow all the time, it switches back and forth between yellow and blank seemingly randomly and with each condition lasting for a few to several seconds.
I'm a (retired) Electronics Design Engineer: the first Amiga was purchased using a "perk" from the Aerospace company I worked for when they decided to help employees buy PCs (had to add the CrossDos and a 5 1/4" disk to meet their requirements).
I used my Amigas for actual work, not games. I've designed a Zorro-based logic analyzer and written lots in Arrex and C for them.
