Thanks Roy. Someone else gave me that site or a similar one, and
I found that the part is no longer available. And according to
the site, a later version of the same chip may or may not be a
dropin replacement.

But since the rest of the computer is very non-standard, and the
hard disk seems to have had a major failure, I don't see any
point to taking the matter any further.

Even the FDD uses a non-standard mounting, so it is useless as a
spare for anything other than another identical computer.

At least I get a mouse, a keyboard, and some internal cables out
of the exercise...

I may save the p/s for reworking for a single regulated output,
as described in an article in Silicon Chip magazine, but the rest
of it is so much junk (see www.siliconchip.com.au for that
article. They have the last two or more years online).
