Macintosh SE is together and running System 7.1, although i'd like to get System 6 running on there eventually.
Macintosh 512k unfortunately now doesn't want to start at all. This narrows the problem down to capacitors though as it's the documented "Flupping" issue. Wackymacs has given me a component list to repair the logic and analog boards, so kudos to him for that. Maybe we can make this old Mac sing again.
I haven't ruled out either the logic board or the analog board, but unlike other scenarios where the system will power up then die after a few moments, this machine will stay powered up once it gets the power to do so. Try to make it run from a cold start though and success is otherwise unlikely. Something's sucking down the juice faster than it should be, or the system can't keep up with the factory ratings due to age. Therefore, i'm turning to capacitors or rectifiers.
Apart from this it's a very tidy little machine. Still has its original factory beige colour, minimal if any external case damage and is in otherwise great shape for its age.
On a sidenote just looking at the back here... it says M0001ED. 800kb drive, 128k ROM. Nice.
