CRT isn't fixable. Analogue board probably is. No one's gonna be able to tell the difference without seeing (and possibly testing) the machine in person. 50 Euro is a great price for a CC even in the States, even if it *is* only for parts. You could probably make double your money back in the EU by parting out what works and selling it over there, so don't let the price stop you. -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> Software Archive <ftp://download:[EMAIL PROTECTED]//Users/thepickl/Sites/Archive/> <http://www.members.jmug.org/%7Ethepickl/archive/> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
