I bought my Sam in Feb 1990 - very early on one of the chips went funny so the picture occasionally went black and white. I got this replaced shortly after SamCo appeared and I'd got my v3 Rom. Since then I've had no trouble whatsoever. Hmm, a slight lie, my disk drive was playing up for a while, but taking it out and plugging it back in again eventually seemed to solve that problem, it's right as rain again now. Perhaps I've just been extremely lucky..... ....@/
