Could we have a tour of your solar system, including the panels? As much as I'd hate to take a break from Amiga stuff, I'm just curious.

Oh My God! The Amiga community feels your pain. Obiwan has taken a knee!

Holy shnikeys that's a nice piece... Mace Windu would be jealous

You have done so much to keep Amigas alive. I’m sure this good karma will come back soon. The shelf is just a speed bump.

Hi Dr. Chris. First of all I want to thank you for all of that great Contend which entertains and educate me and many others out there. Back in the days I owned many Amigas (500 / 1200 / 3000) and absolutely loved them. Unfortunately I lost them all, together with many more 8Bit and 16Bit Machines to a fire. Besides all of the great things I could say about your contend there's one thing that bothers me since day one. Why do you always refer to you as an "idiot" when mentioning that you help people without a charge? This should be the way for all of us and it should be praised and promoted and not be refered to as a bad way of doing things !!! Generosity and helping People should be normal and a GOOD thing and not idiotic. I would love you to promote such behavior with words as much as you do with your deeds. Greetings from Germany Dr. Chris.

Damn that sux chris , i feel your pain brother , and fat boys rule! <3

Danke!

In the days of old, purple was the most difficult colour to manufacture for garments/clothing which is why it was set aside for Royalty or the super rich back then. Looks like you ARE the king of amiga repair Chris!

I hope you were able to save as much as possible, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Kind regards from Hanau/Germany

I saw this video more than a year ago and recently ran across a similar P4 SBC on "e booger" with an integrated ATI Radeon. So I found the audio modual for it and I'm going to install it in one of my A2000s as a Retro PC gaming machine. As always, Thanks Doc!

Oh man. That’s sad.

Very nice 4000 board/daughterboard/z3660. Color coordinated with your purple ReA4091! Kavanoz is a valuable member of the community and built several boards and cards for me after watching 1 of your older videos introducing him. Congratulations.

thanks bud, wish I could buy you a beer!

What a grim thing to happen with the shelves… but what a thoughtful donation too.

I feel your pain, i had an A500 that got destroyed in transit and it broke my heart, happy note shes all good now, i also have a mint A2000HD which my partner marked, i was devastated, i can only imagine the tears shed for your beautiful machines.

OMG Chris, not the babies!! :-(

OMG what a rollercoaster. I was happy for you at the beginning but got queezy when you explained what happened. Those photos were hard to look at. Stay humbled Chris 🍀

@Chris Edwards Restoration. Feel for you on the amiga losses My A500 was same. keep pushing your channel has been a light for us Amiga addicts 8). and the amount of dedication put in is priceless. I would dedicate my Semi broken 500 rev6.a (Rom 2.05A600HD) brighted, moded. and three 512kb ram boards, in box if intrested

My guy am so sorry about your archives. I lost what I had to a flood a few years ago.

hi my name is mark from the uk is it normal to get static on a mouse port and on the pcmia card adapter as well its amgia a600 i no this sounds weird but i got static out side my amgia do i need to earth some how thanks

Amazing that 30 years after the demise of Commodore that an entirely new set of boards, sockets, and cpus are made.

Chris I cry with you in the corner. A tragic accident and a message you have bought to us from the heart. You are a great guy and we love you and your great work. The Amiga community is lucky to have you on our side thank you.

I can relate to that so much, always helping other people and still thinking or actually be convinced I'm not deserving anything at all myself. If there is ever anybody, especially in the Amiga community, that deserves the highest praise it's you Chris. You must have been devastated by that disaster. Collecting, caressing and loving your collection for years, helping out the community like you do, and then this happens. Unfair. Hope something good comes at you soon!

Love what you do so much. Wonder is there a way I can leave you my ultimate spec A4000T in my will or something.

Wow Dr Chris! Had no idea what happened to your collection… Sorry to see the state of what occurred, but that new board and gear you have. Great stuff from the guys who donated it to you 👍🏻 Don’t forget that Ordyne over on Amibay makes and sells brand new A4000D cases. Thanks for what you do. Cheers 🍻

I've said it before. I'll say it again. I really don't like many people. I have an extremely high gain dodgy detector that was installed at birth. You however never even registered a single blip. Stay awesome. And now I need to go and check all my cheap storage shelves in the garage.

I’m not sure when RUclips decided to recommend your channel but I’m so glad it did. Your passion for all things Amiga is contagious and makes me long for the a600 I lost somewhere along the way. Your passion deserve great things Chris and thank you for keeping the tech alive. 🍺🍻

OMG, what a nightmare =O I hope you can fix some of the things that got damaged and broken! =(

OMG, you poor thing. Big love big Chris. Go purple dude.

I have several 1000/2000 cpus and cases that I can send to you. I now have a job, and I can afford the shipping. I can donate them to the “cause” of your channel. I am in Houston near NASA, and only need to know the shipping fees to your city. Where are you?

I can definately relate, know the feeling all to well. I'd be scarred for life by something like that. Nothing like that has happened to my computers thankfully, but a car I had put hundreds of hours and more money than I'd like to admit into got wrecked by a drunk driver and was a total loss...

Thanks! I've booted up the Pimiga 4 on my Pi4 and Intel PC, and it works great. Much better than I've managed before using emaulation. Many thanks for all your hard work. Back in the day, I owned an A500 then later "upgraded" to an A600, so Its great to be able play all those games I used to own, amongst other things.

Oh man 😞

I've watched about 400 of your videos and I've never seen you so broken and depressed. Maybe these plastics can be repaired somehow. Anyway, hang in there. Greetings from Poland.

Thanks, mine was doing the exact thing and this did the trick.

Thats a bad accident Chris. OMG! Good that you work on it. Greetings from Steven from the Netherlands

Keep up the great work!

Best damn letter ever

😱😱😱 Oh man, that's heavy!

If it weren't for bad luck, some of us got no luck at all otherwise

The Amiga is such an important piece of tech that truly deserves all the accolades it has gotten over its life. So do you Chris for all the hard work and time you've put into keeping it alive. Thankyou.

See through cases for desktops is pushing it a bit but I'm sure a 4000T and 3000T could have acrylic panels. I've never had it mentioned but was there ever plans to build a 2000T?

Holy shit!! I feel your pain!! The nightmare of every collector! Sniff...

OH NO!!!! Shawshank that stuff back into shape - love it

Oh man! Sorry for that crazy disaster! You have a good attitude moving on from it, but I’m sure you were sick for a few days.

sexay! the hdmi on the z3660 isn't single-source though, you'll still need a monitor connected to DB23 for Amiga modes

Those are beautiful boards! Very nice work. Sorry to hear about the accident!

Nuts man, sorry to hear that. I was gonna say to use a metal Amazon rack for overflow computers etc.
