Alice Averlong🏳️⚧️on a scale of 1 to WE COPYRIGHTED THE FUCKING PLASTIC CASE OF OUR DUMB TERMINAL, how many layers of IP law are you on?
it's a well known fact that injection-molding piracy was rampant back in the Reagan era
dang it. I did a decent job cleaning up this part of the case but I accidentally put it down the wrong way and damaged a clip. I'm gonna have to shim & glue it to have it attach properly
This is going to take forever to clean. I basically can only clean one channel at once with a cotten bud, and even that is tricky
significantly cleaner! qtips, paper towels + spudger, and toothbrushing it got basically all of it.
they didn't remove the little peely plastic protective film! This thing is from 1986! that's 38 years of PEELING LEFT UNDONE!
So I resoldered the couple of questionable caps and put it partially back together, but it's still got the RAM issues. I was kinda hoping the caps would alleviate that problem.
I still can't get into the testing mode since I don't have a keyboard for this specific unit, so I can't figure out which memory chip it is that's failed (and there's like 5 on the PCB)
X ΘΔ@foone wonder if you could find out by just pullin one out at a time, or swapping them
@Xkeeper I believe they're all soldered and not identical!
@foone d'ohhhhhhhhhhhh. that's too bad.
