Folks,
Left my IIfx with both batteries out for 3 1/2 days and I still get no signs
of life. I know the keyboard's OK as it powers up my IIci.
Any thoughts on what else might die over a couple of years non-use?
cheers

Electrolytic caps would be my #1 guess. I supposed it could be bit-rot in
an EPROM, but the machine is a bit too modern for that.
