  • +2 empty casing questionJust wanted to know is a +2 gray's casing the same as a +2a or b as I have a grey but would rather the black casing thats on an A or B model.

    In fact you can put your +2 motherboard in the black case of a +2A, it fits perfectly (even the big heatsink), and put the +2 keyboard membrane in the +2A keyboard, like I did when I created my "+4" :D (link in my signature).

    I did'nt measure it until now but maybe the capacitance of new membranes is higher than that of the original ones. I found that in some cases after replacing a keyboard membrane such resistors helped to get stable conditions.
