I bought an original Mac 128K in May 1984. It was the 1729th made in the
11th week of 1984 according to the serial number.
It was NEVER opened from the day I brought it home. Never service, never
repaired--of this I am 99.9% certain.
So, how did my logic board end up with 3 different brands of RAM and the 2
ROM modules come from different countries? (Japan & Korea)
I'll include a picture of front and back of board, because the soldering on
the back is perfectly aligned, tiny dots--like a never-touched board should
look.
Any ideas, thoughts, etc will be appreciated.
