Re: PhilCs blog / the latest things hes broken(fixed)

But then thinking some more. It's not impossible that the logic board is causing the resetting. As the logic board had to be repaired but the only test bed I have is the Max Classic that I've had to repair the analog board on And these classic macs are a pain to work on.

Another blast from the past, this time it's a uKenbak-1

If you've never heard of the Kenbak-1, I'd suggest a trip here to read all about what is considered to be the worlds first 'personal' computer. Kenbak-1 in detail What I have is a 1/2 scale replica using modern components, but functioning just as the Kenbak did back in the day. IMG20240316144006.jpg...

Just waiting for the AV lead which should be here late afternoon early evening.

I feel confident it'll run fine after what I've seen internally, so fingers crossed for later :)
