Test and try: Macintosh Centris 610 (with a "sassy" recap)

About this video

Is a 1993 Macintosh Centris 610 still working? Adrian Black opens the pizza box case, recaps and cleans the board, then gives the machine a test run.

Good to know: The power supply inside the case holds mains voltage, and its capacitors stay charged after unplugging. Desoldering capacitors risks burns and fumes, and old solder contains lead. Cleaning solvents are flammable.

Why watch it

Almost an hour of the video goes on recapping and cleaning the board, and the test of the Mac is held back until 1:02:45.
