BBC also reports about it. Wonder if that's the actual Amiga that Warhol used for his work?

A2000, Blizzard 2040ERC, Spectrum (alive again), Masoboshi MC702
A4000, A3640, VLab, A2301

Wonder what made recovery so difficult?

Was it the arcane format mentioned in BBC, or dying sectors in the first article?
