Don't over-extend yourself financially on my account.  I can wait a while until you get the money together.  Besides, I still need to put everything together and figure out what's up with the Amiga 500.

It just arrived not 5 minutes ago.  Everything looks good.  I'd test it out, see if it works, but... there is no AC adapter.

It's fine.  Thanks for the driving controller too.  Now to convince my friend to play a round or 2 with me...

Edit: Or not.. I just noticed there was only one.  Oh well.  one is better than zero, and we can still trade off.

What service did you use to send the AC adapter? I have yet to receive it.

I sent it out USPS. I was thinking of following up and seeing if you got it but I assumed you did. If you haven't received it by this weekend I will see if I can find another one to send to you.

I'll go one block over in the morning, and see if the people at that residence got my package.  It happens more frequently than you'd think, especially with the way my area is.

Well, it just arrived, a little worse for wear.  I've yet to open it, but it looks like it got run over by the postal truck... twice... here's hoping it works.

EDIT: Well, after spending 20 minutes trying to bend the pins back into shape, I plugged it in, turned it on, and the light came on.  I haven't been able to find an RF adapter yet (give it time, I know I have at least two), so I don't know if it shows any video.

EDIT (again): Well, I plugged it in, and it worked... kinda.  The video is very grainy, and the audio is nonexistant.  I'm guessing it's the RF modulator, but it could be the TIA.. I'm going to see if I can find another one...
