Hi... I'm new

Hi all. I never had an Amiga growing up, I did have (and still do have) a ZX Spectrum. I've recently fallen down a retro rabbit hole as I was trying to remember what games I used to play on the Spectrum, only to remember that some of them were on an Amiga that was at a youth club I used to go to.
So yeah.. now I have 3 Amigas. A 500, 600 and 1200.

The 500 has a 6A board and a broken floppy drive. It's quite yellow and needs a good clean.
The 600 is in the process of being refurbed; https://imgur.com/a/qEq2SrG and has polymer caps, a Furia 40MHz, 1MB chip RAM with RTC, SD2IDE.
The 1200 still has its 170.6MB HDD that works, also has polymer caps.

All are boxed, and I've got various other bits and bobs with them.

I'll be posting some questions about them as I work out what I want to do.
