Hi All,
Around a year ago I got into vintage computers when I came across an old Amiga 500. This sort of set me off and I have since got an Amiga 1200 and a Commodore 64. I recently decided to branch out into classic Mac's after seeing an LC II going for next to nothing on Ebay which I was able to collect so no p+p to pay. All was great until I turned it on to hear a very annoying whistling!
A bit of research (which probably should of been done before excitedly hitting the bid button) has told me that most Macs from this era are quite likely to have bad capacitors which need replacing. Unfortunately my soldering skills are about 0 so I was rather hoping somebody might be able to do this for me if I supply parts, cover postage and pay for their time? I am in the UK which I'm guessing rules out most people on these boards!
Some help would be appreciated! :b&w:
