Kim, I had the same problem and although it is not a job for the novice, the solder connections can be repaired if the circuit runs nor the ckt board are not damaged. I am a micro - miniature specialist and was able to repair mine. Almost all Apple //'s and Macs use the identical serial connectors. If it is the connector and not the connection of the connector to the board, you might be able to do as I did and salvage one from another scrapped board. Most Apple techs are forced by Admin to opt the remove and replace board method vice board repair. Specialty repairs are too time consuming and customers usually consider them too costly as well. my system: 8500 132 MHZ 256 MB mem 2 & 4 GB HD's OS 9.1 Andrew J.
