Sorry, haven't had a chance to really go through inbound mail for a few
days... I'm so sick of work getting in the way of my hobby. I keep eyeing
that 50 year retirement goal. Course it'll be hard to find new classics in
10 years I bet :) I'd just about give my left arm to really make enough at
the hobby to just do it full time and quit work. Hey, I can dream.
I should have a spare logic board. I'm off work Monday through Wednesday of
this week. So goal 1 is to go through the vt100 post responses and get
everything shipped/disposed of. I'll let you know tonight or tomorrow. Was
up till 3:30am dealing with work stuff so I'm not sure I would recognize a
vt100 in my condition heh. Back at ya later.

Hi Jay,
got no answer off list, so I'm trying on list.
Just a couple of days after your message my vt100
broke with ROM 2 error. So it doesn't sucessfully
finish self test anymore.
Do you still have some vt100 parts?
Maybe the basic pcb?
TIA
Gerold

Why don't you move one of the VT100's CRTs
into the VT102 chassis? It'll
fit perfectly, there are no electrical mods either (AFAIK it is the same
type of CRT). The swap is not hard.
That is exactly what I did, and why I have a vt102 without case, and an
empty vt100 case :)
