Well, I managed to find some time to see if the old Imlac would fire
up in time for VCF East. It hasn't run in probably 10 years and so I
pulled all of the cards, plugged it in and turned on the switch. Poof!
The main fuse blew -- darn! After a quick look over, I put in a new
fuse and tried it one more time. This time it didn't blow and some of
the supplies actually came up. I reseated a couple of edge connectors
and tried one more time and all five main supplies came up! Woohoo!!!
If things continue with this much luck, I may decide to bring this
beast to VCF East this year... If not there is always next year.
More news as it occurs.
