Hmmm...Ok.  Sorry for the double post.  Inconsistent behavior or
interpretation on my part.

  Okay so I'm trying again,  as the Classiccmp
software is not letting my
 post through with the correct name of the subject computer included in 
 the
  post (I've tried thrice).
 My D#CM at TE II has begun behaving very strangely.
 The computers began to develop keyboard issues a few weeks ago,  which
 resolved to be some or all of a set of small filtering caps (which on my
 board, looked just like picofuses) that sit on the lines for the
 keyboard/video port failing.  Replaced those with 470pf caps (after I
 incorrectly identified and installed picofuses the 1st time), the 
 computer
  now recognizes the keyboard, but now fails 9 out
of 10 times to go 
 through
  a proper boot sequence, generating a randomly
garbled version of the test
 screen patterns and then sometimes attempting to boot the floppy (but
 fails).
 Anyway,  if anyone has a mainboard left over from a Spare Time Gizmos
 project and would like to get sell it, I'd be interested.
 Thanks,
 Tom

 Looking for a Decmate II motherboard.  Doesn't need to have the CPU.
 Thanks,
