First off, I highly recommend "Macintosh Repair and Upgrade Secrets" to
anyone who knows which end of a soldering iron to grab...  I have
brought three macs back from the brink of death so far, for the price
of the book.  It's a new one in that Hayden macintosh series.

To bring my latest patient back from the dead, I need a new flyback
transformer.  Does anyone know a good source for these (preferably in LA)?

Also, is it worthwhile to have a 400K external drive tuned up or just
buy a new one?  I have one that won't recognise mac disks...
