Don't put other peoples chips in your computer, put your chips in someone
else's computer.  If the chips are not damaged, but a capacitor, gate or
resistor is shorted you could end up with two broken computers!!
Also contrary to what people have told you, the 6502 is a MOS chip, if it went
the cheapest way to get it fixed is probably have your apple dealer
install an enhancement kit, and don't tell him your 6502 is blown.
>smile<.

                                Good luck, but if it comes down to a zapped
                                motherboard, buy a new one, its not worth the
                                headaches to try to find the individual broken
                                resistor or capacitor.

The Laser 128:  99.99% compatible, now if I can only get them to make an
 upgrade kit (for the apples).
