    Some old rusty SE's to fix

    no reason why it shouldn't work without a math coprocessor, I'd check the voltages, and if everything's good there, open it and look for capacitor leakage and battery leakage

    Daniël's PowerPC BGA chip swaps

    They're probably FPGAs or CPLDs, so I imagine some LSI voodoo to make the 64-bit bus of the CPU work with the 32-bit bus of the motherboard
