SOMEONE must have experienced this before.  One of the groups
we support has an Apple LaserWriter.  One of the people who used
to run it set the password on the board and has left without
letting anyone else know what it was.  The local dealer's response
is to tell us to replace the entire I/O board.  I assume there SHOULD
be a way of swapping out the EEPROM with a fresh one without having
to swap the entire board.  I would HOPE that there's a way of resetting
the thing to factory spec without having to rip it out at all.  Any
help will be GREATLY appreciated.
