I was taking my daughter to her dance class and saw this Sega Turbo sitting on the porch of the party business next door. Roof over the porch so it's not getting direct rain but still exposed to the weather.
I thought the owner is just planning to haul it off and hasn't gotten to it yet so I duck in and inquire what his plans are for it. He tells me that he's got a guy in Dallas that fixes his games for him when he gets ready to make a trip but he'll let me have the Turbo for $50 to save him the trip.
Everything is there but my impression is that he's offering me the opportunity to haul off his junk for 50 bucks. One of the boards has caps with the tops blown off so there's definately some power issues. But nothing appears too badly corroded. It hasn't been out more than a couple of months and we've been in a dry spell for a while.
What do you think? I've got space and $50 to spare. How tough are Turbos to troubleshoot?
Thanks!
