I'll start this as my A3000T restoration thread with some hashtags. I'll leave those off on most posts except when something is perhaps worth highlighting.
I've extricated it from the basement and quickly remembered what a complete tank this machine was. Heavy as hell.
It's pretty filthy on the outside, especially the keyboard. Anyone in the US that ever had stink bugs in their attic or basement knows what they are seeing on much of that keyboard surface.

And finally, the first looks at the motherboard.
It is shockingly pristine and a gorgeous emerald color. Aside from dust, cobwebs and desiccated bug parts I've blown out, I see no signs of corrosion or other damage (so far).
It looks like someone installed a brand new motherboard inside of a 175 year old filthy computer case.
I should probably remove it and check the back side before I power it up.
Shown here with the drive tray and cables and fully exposed.

Haha, the next #Amiga3000T video is going to sound like pure clickbait. "You won’t believe what the fault was!" I certainly didn’t. Took me a while (and a magnifier) to figure it out. Video coming soon! 🫠
