NiCads fail by shorting so old failed NiCads would have a different

is if the batteies have leaked and damaged the board.
BTW what are the NiCads on there for anyway?

Does anyone
know for sure that if the 4 batteries on the Lisa motherboard
are dead, if that will prevent it from powering up? This machine was working
about 3 years back when it went into storage. Thanks for any tips.
It shouldn't, I removed the batteries on mine.
