| Posted by: bengi3 on 2023-12-30 10:09:23 My last fix was for a PowerBook 180c: PowerBook 180c, a very aggressive moldAfter some years of storage I decided to fix some dead PBs. This one has developer a very aggressive mold that has damaged the front plastic of the LCD. This one was my 3rd PB180 (for spares, especially the LDC): very sad though.
