    Macintosh Portrait Display Repair - Smearing/Pulsing Image on Screen

    Macintosh Portrait Display Repair - Smearing/Pulsing Image on Screen

    Thanks for sharing this list! -- I went ahead and purchased the caps from the mouse project and replaced the signal board and neck board, Unfortunately the sweep board I just didnt. The reasoning behind is because the caps on your list are rated for 85c which are fine for the signal board...

    Reverse Engineering the Macintosh IIcx Logicboard

    WOW -- just like elbow grease sanding or is there any special technique? -- I am mainly asking because with elbow grease one can sand more on some parts than others on the surface. Quite impressive though!

    Reverse Engineering the Macintosh IIcx Logicboard

    retro-reviving this thread but out of curiosity, how do you get layer 2 and 3 connections from a scan? I can understand layer 4 and 1 but the internal ones, how does one do that?; with X-Ray or smth?
