So I recently got my Classic II out of storage and it has the checkerboard screen disease. I also rescued a Classic this weekend that seems to have video board trouble. I may not even bother with it and stick to maybe fixing the Classic II. Classic II's can be lovely little machines for small tasks. I wish I could find my SE but I don't see it in storage and don't remember parting with it. I'll have to content myself with reviving the Classic II for now I suppose. Wish me luck.
