Watching Adrian begin to scope the amount of work he's got going on that Lisa's I/O board reminds me of the job I had to do a few years back where it was easier to just strip that corner of the board, remove the failing masking and replace traces and sockets as per the schematic.

I've been staring at this car both in person and online for the last five hours and at $1000 it's a better deal than my PDP-8/S was, but if I'm buying a car to make a bunch of youtube videos, then sell it and not feel greasy, I gotta sell this thing again in short order, just cleaner and registered.

I have a few people asking from the video today about the filtering on the GPIB port. Here's some photos showing how it sits between the rear port and the GPIB input on the actual printer. Here's also another photo of the shielding on the door/window and just the printer itself with paper loaded.
