Bit of #retrocomputing here.
I finally decided to do something I'd been meaning to do for years - nudged by watching @janbeta starting the restoration of an #Amiga 3000T .
What I needed to do was remove the real-time clock battery from the mainboard in my Amiga 4000. I haven't used it in - literally - decades, and those soldered-to-the-board NiCd batteries (they're three small cells attached end-to-end) all leak, eventually. They can do a lot of damage to the board.
I think that I had been putting it off for years because I figured it had been so long there wouldn't be anything to salvage - that, plus it was tucked in an inconvenient place in storage.
Today I pulled the box out and looked at it. It's basically in mint shape, even stored in the original factory packaging, which is not bad for a machine from 1993. I hadn't even seen the machine since 1998 - the box was sealed when I moved that year, and I never unpacked it. I moved a couple more times since then.
It wasn't even dusty inside. It looks like it came out of the factory last week. It's the #68040 model and has some upgrades - RAM maxed out, a Video Toaster 4000 and a second hard drive added.
The battery did leak, but there's no significant damage to the board. The lacquer where it oozed has lost its shine, but that's about it. Removed it and cleaned the board.
I gather this might actually be worth something today? Last time I checked (20 years ago...) it wasn't.

Where the hell did this come from?? Tiny channel with the most overkill setup; watch this not only for the history, but the completely analogue broadcast with live effects! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-cEIp0AcfM #amiga #retrogaming #videotoaster

Is this an amiga ball easter egg in Babylon 5?
It's on a printed backdrop behind a cafe. Normally it doesn't get seen from this angle (because the vista requires a forced perspective to work) but in "The Fall of the Night" the camera is awkwardly placed and this checkerboard ball is visible. It looks a lot like the boing ball to me!
Babylon 5 famously used Amiga products to make the cgi... so I want to believe...
