Last time I spoke to someone, years ago, about my 100 with some display lines being dead. I think we discovered that it was one of the driver chips that failed. Anyway, it's sitting in my closet since I have a 200.

I wouldn't mind modding a 200 if a modern backlit display could fit in the same hole and use the same connectors. This would make the mod reversible.

More and more I’m limiting myself to repairs.
Also some consider “retro mod” to be an abomination, so there is that too .

Sometimes I read on forums people saying have a stack of this and that ; these are the ones who should be starting such experiments if they have access to heaps of retro hardware.
