I may just do it. I have a working 102 and one that works sans some bad
lines on display due to a bad display driver chip. It is fixable if I
can find a spare chip for sale as a drop-in replacement. I don't want to
sacrifice it if it is largely fixable.

I've been looking for a dead one on ebay for less than $20 but people
want crazy money for even a dead one. If I can get my hands on a dead
100, 102 then I'll get started reverse engineering the board in CAD and
see how it goes.

I may ask the bitchin crew if someone has a dead 100 they're willing to
donate.
