Mac Classic - will it ever run again!!

:thumbup: :cheer: :girldance: @rubber_jonnie , I so enjoy reading about your exploits. You never know what will befall you in your efforts to give these old computers a forever home. From soldering Iron attacks to successful board builds, you just can't make this stuff up. You should rename your running forum to "The Adventures of Rubber Jonnie.".

You know what, I may just do that. Glad to hear you enjoy my adventures :)

Just you wait, I have a Sinclair Spectrum up next as well as the Mac :)

@rubber_jonnie Spectrums are easy to fix. Do the composite mod first and then off you go.

I've never worked on the international boards but there are some odd transistors in the tube power side if I remember also the yoke connector are bad for cracks from one end to the other

Aye, that's what I'm talking about :)

Cool, thanks I'll check them over.

I presume you have a copy of the BOMARC Services schematics for the Classic? :)

You presume correctly sir :)

Ahoy! If you're after a replacement logic board for the classic...well, i have those in production for a test batch now! :)

[rubber_jonnie]

Very cool, what sort of cost are you looking for a board?

I do currently have a replacement from @Tomswork BTW, but haven't been able to follow up on account of the house situation, but it's going to be one of my first projects once we get moved in.

I'm slightly worried that the analog board is dead too, but we'll see. It will live again!
