@virus200 Please, NASA has been way too underfunded for a long time that their security is bad, any good hacker knows that, the real deal is hacking CERN with this bad boy:

@virus200 If you think I was "serious" you obviously failed miserably to get my quote, please return your geek credentials because you failed the test :/

brahn15747yNot sure about commodores, but amigas tend to last just about forever. Unless the batteries ruptured. So check if there's a battery and remove it if there is one.

Alright. Two dead Commodores.
Over 15 years before I was born? ✅
No idea how BASIC works? ✅
Internet at the ready? ✅
So far I've checked various chips for visible damage, and nothing except a blown fuse on both machines. Apparently it takes dual 9vAC and single 5vDC. The 9 powers the SID and the video output, the VIC-II heatsink is off, and I've tested the PSU voltages and one of the 9v's is dead. I'll be getting new fuses and a new PSU soon. Any recommendations on other things to check or things to do when they're done? Pic included because why not.
