Acorn Archimedes A305 Restoration Update - Keyboard Rebuild, Monitor Fixes & Video & Audio Mods

The Acorn Archimedes A305 was the original and first ARM CPU powered computer. I’m doing some work on mine in preparation for a video on the history of the ARM architecture and the Archimedes in general, so join me for a progress update!

Covered in this video: Reversing the video mod I did a few years ago to restore sync-on-green, the Burr-Brown op amp audio upgrade, monitor power switch fix and keyboard rebuild.
