Step Lines
| - | [* black] Boom! layout shot. |
|---|---|
| - | [* black] The score of repairability must be assigned! |
| + | [* black] Macintosh 128K Repairability Score ***7? out of 10*** (10 is easiest to repair). |
| + | [* green] Once you’re inside, it’s simple and straight-forward to replace any of the main components: floppy drive, power supply, logic board, or CRT display. |
| + | [* green] No adhesive anywhere. |
| + | [* green] User-replaceable clock battery. |
| + | [* yellow] Limited upgradability: The RAM is soldered to the logic board and can’t be replaced, and there’s no where to add an internal drive. However, you can expand storage via an optional external floppy drive. |
| + | [* red] The case is fairly difficult to open, with deeply recessed screws and a tight fit. |
| + | [* red] There are some dangerous high voltages on both the power supply and the CRT that make repair potentially hazardous. |
