Corroded Amiga 500 Rev 5 (w/512k ROM upgrade and S-Video out)

#corrosion #amiga #commodore

Welcome to another video in the test and try series. This time we have an Amiga 500 and Digifex Corp VIP box. The computer actually looks a bit worse inside than I was led to believe, so I cleaned it up. Also it's a Rev 5 board so it needs a modification to accept larger 512k ROMs.
