Hi All,
It is fine to work on the boards live, removed from the card cage. I do it all the time and never had a problem; as you surmised, the power supplies also are routed to the boards through wires.
JH it is awesome that you finally have an '80! I and many others are looking forward to your insights as you delve inside it. Enjoy the heat and the wonderful smell!
