Nope; it's definitely a SCSI-type port, I plugged a SCSI cable into it... I
might just try that, and see if the Classic will recognize it... Although I
somehow doubt it. Mactracker says it has a serial connection.

I had the logic board out, but I didn't check the caps, because I had thought
the problem would be on the analog board. I'll open it up and check to see if
there's leakage anywhere.
