Question to the #retroComputer and #Amiga restauration experts: does this #A501 memory expansion board still have a chance to survive its leaky battery and what tests would you run before inserting it back into the machine?

I removed the leaky battery, treated the area affected by the spill with white vinegar to neutralize the liquid, and started to remove the corrosion by carefully rubbing the area with a qtip dipped in a baking soda and water mixture -- but much remains.

Is there still hope?

Faszination AMIGA

Kein Computer hat mich bei seiner Vorstellung so sehr in seinen Bann gezogen wie der Amiga, und kein anderer Computer hat es jemals wieder vermocht, einen so großen Ehrgeiz bei mir zu wecken, ihn unbedingt besitzen zu müssen.
