After immersing myself in Boisy and Bill's new CoCo book, I had a warm
fuzzy nostalgic feeling of days gone by.
I proudly looked at my CoCo3 and noticed I haven't been taking good care
of it lately. It's dirty keyboard and dusty case.
I decided to do it justice and did a full strip down of my CoCo3!
Everything was dismantled and removed, power supply, mainboard and the
keyboard pulled apart right down to the membrane and springs.
A thorough wash in the tub with detergent and some bleach and after
re-assembly, it looked good as new... except for some yellowing of the
keys and case.
To show off my pride and joy, I have created a page on my project
website with photos.
Hopefully, this will encourage others to pamper their CoCo's and restore
them back to show room condition!
