Re: Got a Lisa! Now I need to get it running.

I will take a look at the floppy repair instructions as soon as I get a chance.

I have the H/88 ROM

There is no circuit board next to the floppy drive.

There are 3 large chips in the back in the upper left hand corner. They are
Left : 8423, 344-0041-A, Apple 1983
Middle : 341-02810, Apple 1983
Right : 8335, SY6504A
