Mac plus restoration in SF
Posted by: Aaron on 2018-12-18 23:58:39
I have a very old Mac plus (my first computer) that I’d like to revive. I tried turning it on — it beeped, but nothing on the screen. I know capacitors can leak, etc, but I’m more of a software guy. I’m also afraid of the high voltage of the CRT. Is there someone in the Bay Area who could help me?

The problem is probably easy to solve - cold solder joints in usual place (check Google or this forum).  You wont have to worry about CRT high voltage as long as you dont touch the red anode underneath the rubber cover or flyback.
