It's a shame Colin didn't keep a 'video diary' of his exploits here from the beginning but the end result would probably have been too long to fit on Youtube.

I haven't (yet) watched the third item in Colin's post #1788 but the original mainboard would have to have been sawn in half before I would give up on it - and maybe not even then - so it's hard for me to imagine a scenario where someone would actually remove the original main board and replace it with a functional modern replica.
