[rescue] OT:Apple Lisa

[James Rice]

Has anyone ever repaired a Lisa 2 with the following symptoms:  A 
distorted video image on the upper 1/3 of the screen?  I'm the high 
bidder on a Lisa 2 on ebay

If you look at the screen shots, the video screen is distorted very 
similar to what my compact macs do with cold solder joints on the analog 
board.  I figure that it's either a similar problem, dirty contacts  or 
bad caps on the board.  Just wondering if anyone has seen similar 
symptoms.  I think I can get a Lisa video board from a friend in DFW who 
has a cache of Lisa's in storage.  The guy's Apple collection is 
awesome.  He has several of absolutely every product Apple ever made 
including a lot of prototype stuff that was never publicly released.

I think a Lisa would fit in perfectly with my NeXT's, Sun's, Indy and BeBox.

Thanks,

James
You mean you're supposed to read the manual first?
