Now this one is a rarity.
Donated to the museum with its keyboard, an external hard drive and the software & manuals.
First thing is to check the PSU. Opening the case it seems very DEC like in its build, even down to the thumbscrew & turnbuckle fastenings.
PSU removed and a multitude of blown RIFA's found and removed but its got an interlock and a soft on/off input, so in for a penny so threw it back in and powered it up.
Multiple beeps I now have a very very dim display. Might be the tube or the power, next I will need to see how I can power it all up with the case open for testing.
