A500 Adventures: Planning our Repair - Episode 113

This week on 10 Minute Amiga Retro Cast I am starting a new Mini Series about the Amiga 500, along the same lines as my A2000 Adventures series from a few months back. This machine has some reliability issues, so we are going to get busy getting her all fixed up. In Episode 1 we are introduced to the machine, and to the A500 in general for newbies and make a road map of the repair process.
