Yep, I kept my Mac II going great for years, temporarily had it on my basement floor and it flooded. Completely submerged the Mac II and likely some of the monitor as well. Cables stayed nice and dry in a freezer bag.

It won't even make the nice starting chime, although the monitor sounds and looks like it wants to work up. Some of the case's inner metal got a little rusty but nothing else looks rusty,

Any suggestions for either

a) getting the Mac II running again without investing a fortune in lots of little parts or

B) finding a good home for someone who has the resources to revive it?
