2010-02-23

Tested 5 NeXTstations brought in by G. Süss

• 1 completely broken (doesn't power on at all)
• 1 working, but root pw unknown, reset through single user mode doesn't work
• 1 with empty HDD
• 1 with broken HDD and no RTC battery (needed to power on)
• 1 with 13w3 video jack, color monitor needed

The required battery is a standard CR123(A) Lithium type.

Devices with empty HDD and unknown pw were left at club room for further study.
