I didn't know they were SMDs...

soak it in the brake fluid won't hurt the plastic. I did over night soakings to get old paint off RC car bodies. probibly could do it one side a day in a pan of some sort (I used a photo developing tray my self)

that looks simple enough. I'll have to see if any of the broken boards I have kicking around have some chips like the one in the SE/30 I can test it out on. I have Monday off, could be a good project. I'll have the caps done a least(got a bunch of 47uf 35v electrolytic caps I think would...

my schedule varies a bit so if you know a day before I can tell ya when I'm around. I'll get you the NeXT keyboard, mouse and PB150 while I'm at it.

The chip marked UA8(I think, was a U and an 8 for sure) was leaked upon, entire chip was covered in shmutz, corroded pins, the works. The rest of the board looks brand spankin' new so the damage was very obvious. I will replace the caps. If all goes ok(even if it retains the lines) I'll...

the caps I can do... the video chip, not so much.

two! Two, working pluses! *muahahaha* bad solder joint on the analog board. other two, one had a dead power supply the other has no power supply(and it has a 512k board and back case)

and a 4 plusses (so far I've made one working one out of the 4.... think I'll end up with two total, if one of the last three has a working tube) unfortunately SE/30 has the lines. :-/ one cap popped, just had to be the one near the video didn't it? Not skilled enough to replace the...

I'd tell Iowa where they could shove it and keep the title. Frame it and put it on your wall or something. :p

this is why I decided not to tinker with the one I had. needed a keyboard and mouse to be functional than I looked up to see what that would cost... 8-o yeah, that's out side the 'want to tinker with' price range and even than I still needed software, SCSI drive, my screen was 'iffy', etc.

nice!

my golf doesn't even lock... As such I've left the keys in the ignition several times. Found it takes about two full days for the radio to kill the battery. :p

So update, more than a month on. the CF-IDE adaptor from newegg worked great, though I can't have the optical drive installed(no big loss). So I've been running off a CF card(sandisk 16GB UltraII) for over a month it's been working perfectly!

sure wish there was something like that for a IIc+ :p

I'd be willing to bet it's actually an ST-506 to SCSI converter.

hummm maybe I should check the SE/30 at work... although it's on a really high shelf and I don't do heights.

Another PB150 owner... but another with only 4MB. wonder if there will be a 68kmla brawl over my PB150 memory upgrade adaptor now ;)

Heater core is cheap, labor is what gets ya. Whatever left is getting funneled into getting the other machines functional. and given the huge amount of cool stuff I've given away over the years I don't feel bad selling this one at all.

Sure is. I look at it this way, I've already played with the BeOS back in the mid/late 90's (on a 604 based PPC mac clone no less) Not really charting new territory for my self there. BeBox is an interesting piece, but it's not all that hot specs wise, really kind of limited and large, plus...

heater core in my car failed and I live in a wintery place so.... eBay. xx(
