Kennt ihr die #IBM-Reihe »Kleine Computer-Kunde in zehn Kapiteln« aus den 80er Jahren? Die ist auch in vielfacher Hinsicht ziemlich genial.

Ich habe die ersten 3 Bände:
- »Wie erklären Sie jemand, der Sie fragt, wie ein Computer funktioniert, wie ein Computer funktioniert«
- »Wie erklären Sie jemand, der Sie fragt, wie man einen Computer programmiert, wie man einen Computer programmiert?«
- »Wie erklären Sie jemand, der Sie fragt, was ein Computer macht, was ein Computer macht?«

The screen is also horribly dirty. I opened it (after buying a set of long security Torx bits). Its electronic circuit is quite simple, as it’s a monochrome monitor, yet it is not very nice to work on: you have to disassemble almost everything to check components. I was suspicious of the capacitors and the TDA1170 that controls the vertical deflection. #repair #IBM #monitor
