OK, hardware gurus, how about some remote diagnostic help: PowerBook 160
(my first and only Mac), a bunch of black vertical lines of varying width
on the LCD (different patterns on the two panels that make up the
display), but otherwise the display looks good (all the bits in the right
place).
Video RAM? LCD controller? Cable problem on the laptop side? Cable
problem on the LCD side? Bad LCD? Repair FAQ?
I have a volt meter, a logic probe, a fear of high current, but I enjoy
the occassional high voltage zap. What's my next move?
