Any technical people out there know where the ADB fuse is located on a
Mac II motherboard? (if indeed it's there at all).  Someone told me of
a Mac II that they had seen which sometimes on power-up freezes the 
mouse in the top right-hand corner of thg screen.  Oncve this has
happened the only thing that will unfreeze it is to replace the motherboard!
(Or so I was told).  Supposedly everything has been changed (except
strangely enough for the Mouse and Keyboard - the first thing that I would
have changed) so it isn't software on the system disk, or motherboard
problems or anything.  Has anyone else heard of this happening?  Is it the
ADB fuse?  What would cause that to go so easily?  If I get any answers
and anyone is interested in hearingthe results I will summarise them to
the net.
