System7
Banned
Well today, January 22,2009, the Macintosh IIci, Serial #10441BU737 has had a catastrophic failure of the logic board power system. Before then, there were bus errors and instability. The caps are indeed bad, as the system failed too boot. I got it to boot to Mac OS one last time, with a sad mac without an error # appearing within minutes. Now the system does nothing, even when stripped of all but the logic and smallest amount of RAM.
This IIci clearly went through a hard life, with corrosion and dirt, and a spider that lived in it (ICK). The floppy included was bad, and it was dismal.
By the time it was partly restored, the system only had one half of its sound channels working.
And 3 Months later, the IIci decides its time is done serving its owner.
I will burry it in the Computer Crypt in the basement, where it will join my first computer, a Packard Bell PI that had its chipset explode, and a IIvx that just went lifeless.
RIP
