we must restore pieces as much original as they are, because we
choose a conservative filological approach for our work; but
sometimes this can't be done (due to lack of original parts) so
in those cases we choose to fix with workalike stuff (EPROM
adapters, PIC and EEPROM stuff, etc.  etc.)

We want to preserve the originality of pieces as much as
possible, also choosing vintage or vintage-like components. 

Also, every fix we make is full documented via pictures and
documents of various type. 

I strongly believe this way to do things is really important,
because this identify us as a real Museum insteaf instead being
a simple hardware collectors.
