Hi Sellam,
Now I know why stuff like TRS-80s and C64s were so
derided back in the
day: the shit just don't last!
Most of the TRS-80's here have started suffering from bit rot, but out
of the 40 or so C= machines I have, only 1 has a problem (fried CIA).
On the other hand, I've rarely met an Apple ][ that didn't boot.
Coincidence? You be the judge.
I have two Apple II's - one works, one doesn't - 50% failure rate!
<grin>
In fairness though, I've had more failures with C64 power supplies than
I care to remember - but the 64's themselves have been pretty tough.
cheers,
Lance
