As one who has liberated more than his fair share of magic smoke, I offer condolences and a hearty welcome to the brotherhood. :) .
Thank you very much for the condolences, the hearty welcome into the brotherhood of the magic smoke . . . :lol:

and the message of hope! [;)] ]'>

Since I have one of these beasts w/nasty SCSI VODOO and one well & truly borked monster on hand, I'm not all that worried (God & Murphy willing, of course! [;)] ]'> ) about hackin' one workin' unit outta' these troubled twins! [:D] ]'>

While I've got the attention of our resident EEWizard, could you check out the DeclROMhackin' thread and the, recently turned open source, SuperDuoHack™ thread and let me know where I'm goin' wrong, please?

Also, since my guardian demon . . . methinks that B has taken over that particular job ::) . . . has reopened the can of worms I got rollin' years ago, regarding a theoretical update of the Luggable. What do you think of turning one into a wide screen Mini ITX (?) transportable? No batteries, just AC and maybe an internal hardwired inverter for auto-mobile computing a/o Airline/Train capable powerhack? It'd have to be a NumericKeyPad-Only Hack, unless maybe we'd go with a narrower LCD centered on the KBD and a fixed position TrackBall installation?

Is this one of my loony toons notions™ or the do-able variety?

TIA
