    New LCII Project - No Boot

    I picked up a very clean LCII and 12" RGB monitor from eBay last week - original box for the monitor, all disks, all manuals. No scratches, dents, dings, writing or yellowing.

    Remove Cigarette Smoke Smell

    I've recently relocated my Color Classic from my mom's house, where it's lived happily since 1993 choking on cigarette smoke. I think it is going to need a recapping, and the 160meg hard drive in it gave up the ghost. I'm also about to to a full teardown and de-yellowing soak in h202 and Oxy...
