Actually, it's probably just a matter of sticking a boot floppy in and figuring out what's up with the boot drive. Someone's probably killed the System Software. Worst case is a reinstall of the OS.

Compacts are not filling the thrift stores hereabouts as they seem to be elsewhere, but I have found one Classic. Problem : when turned on, it just cycles between the happy mac screen and the pointer-in-the-corner screen. Is this machine salvagable by a non-proficient screwdriver jockey or is the solution intricate and/or expensive? I haven't bought it, but the temptation is working on me.
