One of the reasons I've stayed with my Omni VI and Paragon II is because
they are so easy to work on; and most of the analog devices are still quite
common and available. There aren't many exotic parts in an Omni VI.

I'm a bit surprised that TT won't work on that board?  But, I also wonder
how much they've downsized during their recent move. I see they have a new
address posted on their webpage.  Has anyone done a drive by to check out
their new digs?  I'm wondering if they dumped a lot of old inventory when
they were cleaning out the old shop?

Regardless, there are quite a few independent repair shops that should be
able to handle these rigs for some time to come. My concern would be losing
a custom chip on the CPU board, but again there a quite a few of these gems
being parted out and boards are available.
