It seems to have 128MB of RAM installed, along with a video I/O board (the
'VEE' bit, I suppose) and Ethernet board. The downside is that there's some
significant battery corrosion toward the bottom of the system board PCB.
You *need* the battery for the system to boot. It's probably a 1/2 AA 3.6V
lithium. Given the age and the corrosion, you probably need a new one.
2) Can I hook the composite out on the video I/O board
up to a TV and
expect to be able to see something at boot time? (I'm not sure if that
board's only initialized after the system's booted)
No, the video out will default to the display connector until you boot and
get into the Sound & Video control panel to change it.
