Well, as of late I have noticed my SE Superdrive has developed a bit of a jittery display most noticable when it first powers on, and some ever so slight dimensional changes with changes to or from largeish areas of white. As the machine warms up the jitters diminish... and a tap or so on the side seems to affect it somehow.
I am tempted to think the jittery screen (which seems like electrical interference) may be the filter capacitors on the PSU on their last legs... is this a fair appraisal? Aside from the jittery behaviour at startup the machine otherwise functions perfectly, and has been very well treated and cared for for the 12 years or so I have owned it and to my knowledge prior to that it didnt have a hard life either.
