     cap replacement looks good but i think the via at the top is supposed to go to some other pin because now there's a short across the new cap? i think i just read the schematic wrong (having a picture of a non destroyed board without the caps would help IMMENSELY)

     *wipes brow*
     i think the negative of the cap (-12v supply only goes to the other side of the board through the via after all

     now to see if the keyboard works fine

     @squirrel your !Amiga 600 looks like mine: someone tried to drive in too long screws,leaving 2 bumbs in the plastic in front of the keyboard

     @squirrel congrats for your successful !Amiga repair! A good deed! I also like your CRT monitor and video recorder :-)
