I am not well versed on checking stuff on boards, but if you need me to check anything else I am more than willing to do so.

C113 is indeed populated. Its ceramic, like others, so I can not say the value. Apple seems to stick to a common group though on boards.  So it may be like others such as C118. It …

cheers unity - appreciate it. I know nothing of the tam, its upgrades......I don't even know what cpu is in this thing. - ment to say...the pictures I posted above... the missing…

Can you show me a case with a serial/model that says M0001AP? I have yet to see one.

Looks nice Ferrix!

I recapped a couple of PB Duo, it is not that hard. I used a soldering pencil with a tiny tip,  no hot air required. The best way to go is SMD electrolytic, if possible smaller in…
