Shocked that it lasted this long - I noticed it the other day and thought
for sure that it would be gonzo..

$300 for a monitor that was just turned on for the first time in 10
years seems steep to me. Especially when the game board is already
showing it has issues.

Factor in parts costs: control panel, marquee, power supply, wiring, etc and
$300 is a steal. If it were local to me (Western PA) I'd grab it for spare
parts alone.

yup... so monitor works, a whole bunch of stuff on the board works... (rom
issue? dirty socket? somthing intermitent...)

still a pretty damn good steal at $300... wish I had the room.

he has all the manuals (including the gravitar manual... wonder if the
origional boards are still inside...

heck, a broken vector monitor is worth almost that much, let alone one that
is fully funcitonal (although it should probably be bulletproofed just for
safety).

the game board is probably an easy fix considering that it almost works (it
draws a bunch of vectors and then locks up... could easily be a simple rom
reseat).
