A few weeks ago, I sent off several boards to be recapped.
They all came back yesterday and I got to open the box today. Inside were the logic boards of my SE/30, Color Classic, and Classic II, as was the Classic II's analog board.
I know it's not a conquest of new Macs, but honestly, they will feel like brand new computers after putting these boards inside. I may retr0brite the SE/30 while I'm at it (since it still has some guts out of it) and now have a perfect board for my perfect boxed Color Classic.
The Classic II is a different case altogether. This is a special Mac to me, since my cousin bought it for me for my 15th birthday. With both of the boards repaired, it's good to go for a long time (outside of drives, and I'm likely going to put a compact flash in that one eventually). This Mac could outlive me at this point.
I've got a few other Macs I'm going to need to get recapped over time, but these will keep me happy and busy for the time being. A big thanks to uniserver for taking care of these!! He did a professional job and was a great guy to deal with from beginning to end. I really appreciated his steady and detailed communication regarding the progress of my boards and will highly recommend him to anyone looking to have their boards recapped.
