Me too, although whilst it’s in bits I may take the opportunity to socket more of the chips. I’ve decided I’ll remove the RF shield and then put heat sinks on all the chips instead.

You know that you need to post a full repair blog ;)

These arrived very unexpectedly yesterday which was a nice surprise. I wasn’t expecting them till way after Christmas.

5 x Open C128 motherboard PCBs, a few more BlueSCSI boards and a PS/2! To Apple Mac plus keyboard adaptor.

If you're interested in parting with one of the C128 boards I'd be interested :)

I do have 5 of them, so yes. I'll work out how much they cost to get here, probably around £25 plus postage each.

Also forgot to say that my raspberry pi 5 arrived at the same time. Although right at this moment in time I've no plans to what to do with it as I wasn't expecting it for a month or so yet. maybe I'll replace the Pi4 in the arcade machine with the 5?
