Hi crew. Question about a Gridacase 1520. Is anyone familiar with
these laptops? This is a 286, really good shape. It won't boot, dead
as a doornail. The guy at the thrift shop told me it was working when
it was brought in the day before, now I see that two (or one) chips
are missing from under the flap in the top left right above the
keyboard. I figure they were lifted between dropoff and my buying it.

Any ideas if these chips, which I think are application roms, would
prevent the thing from booting? If so, is there such a thing as a
replacement available from someone here or elsewhere? The thing must
have been the first Toughbook or something, and I'd love to see it
working.

Thanks for any info anyone can share.

(does anyone still need a gmail invite? I have lots. )
