Mac II, Quadra & Centris

Just think, having a Quadra 950 in 1992 would be like having a Mac Pro today… except with more slots, more expandability, and on-board SCSI!

I'd seen mentions of cursors flickering on some Macs because of time/RTC related problems. After taking a closer look at the RTC circuitry in my cheap Mac IIcx, sure enough, it's not the video card! After scraping, tinning, and meticulous bodging, it's all right.
This 040 has been saved 😇

I hate flea markets, unlike my children and their mother. But this morning I was well advised to go with them.
I found this nice PowerBook 180c for 30€. Even if it's dead, it would still be a bargain.
As long as we're in the mood of trying to save '040s, do you think this one is salvageable?
