A proper exercise in stubbornness on this Sharp X68000. Two rounds of repair, a full recap, FDD surgery (one of the floppy drives had clear signs of a blown capacitor with charring on the PCB), a new oscillator, and still no picture. The X68000 remains on the 'future date' pile.

Sony BVM-9045QD that arrived from Japan with an entire colour missing, the same broken neckboard solder joint that had plagued the PVM-14M4J. Full restoration followed: PSU, deflection board, colour board and anode cap all seen to.
