Was visiting a friend tonight and he wanted to show me some stuff he picked up recently. I noticed an Amiga 3000 sitting on the shelf although that wasn't what he wanted to show me... but I interrupted him and said that we needed to open the Amiga up before we looked at anything else. Good thing, too. The battery had started to leak but I'm pretty sure we got to it in time. I didn't even take time to snap a 'before' picture, I just grabbed the clippers and removed that thing.

This Fouth of July, declare your independence from exploded batteries!

Can't believe this battery hasn't leaked.

There's a vintage computing joke here somewhere...

At least it never leaked.
