| Mac IIci: Spare RBV chip needed, preferably from the UK or Europe. | |
| Posted by: Stephen_Usher on 2023-05-18 09:30:20 I have a sick IIci motherboard which has a half dead RBV chip. Would anyone, preferably in the UK or Europe, have a recovered working chip I could purchase? | |
| Posted by: mg.man on 2023-05-20 02:07:06 Do you have the Apple P/N? I have a bombed IIsi 'board that also has RBV, just not sure if it's the same P/N. Happy to ck and see. | |

| Posted by: mg.man on 2023-05-21 09:50:59 Thanks! It is indeed the same chip on the IIsi :  As you can see, mine's intact, but.... there was some considerable nastiness that took place nearby :  🫨 So it's hit or miss as to whether it survived. | |
| Posted by: Stephen_Usher on 2023-05-22 00:36:45 Oh! That's a mess! (I'd get that battery out and wash the board under the tap.) What would you like to do now? Do you want to harvest the chip yourself or would you like me to buy your IIsi motherboard? | |
Posted by: mg.man on 2023-05-22 09:16:52Do you want to harvest the chip yourselfI'm afraid I don't have a hot air station or skill to one (yet?). I'll drop you a PM and we can work something out. | |
