A few weeks ago, I sent off several boards to be recapped.
They all came back yesterday and I got to open the box today. Inside were the logic boards of my SE/30, Color Classic, and Classic II, as was the Classic II's analog board.
I know it's not a conquest of new Macs, but honestly, they will feel like brand new computers after putting these boards inside. I may retr0brite the SE/30 while I'm at it (since it still has some guts out of it) and now have a perfect board for my perfect boxed Color Classic.
The Classic II is a different case altogether. This is a special Mac to me, since my cousin bought it for me for my 15th birthday. With both of the boards repaired, it's good to go for a long time (outside of drives, and I'm likely going to put a compact flash in that one eventually). This Mac could outlive me at this point.
I've got a few other Macs I'm going to need to get recapped over time, but these will keep me happy and busy for the time being. A big thanks to uniserver for taking care of these!! He did a professional job and was a great guy to deal with from beginning to end. I really appreciated his steady and detailed communication regarding the progress of my boards and will highly recommend him to anyone looking to have their boards recapped.

Glad to hear you're getting your machines back online. Uniserver (and TechKnight) are one(s) of the few experts who can bring back a dead mac to life. I'm glad to hear he did good work.
