Wow - the Synthdata (www.keyboardmuseum.com/ar/s/syda/syda.html) really 
existed??  Do you at least have some schematics for it so you know how 
it was wired into the CS80?

Paging Kent...     Good luck, though. I can't imagine the amount of work 
it will take to find the parts and rewire it. And then fix all the 
problems!  With it so torn up, I'd definitely re-cap / replace CMOS 
chips while you're doing the work.

As sad as it sounds, I'd probably go this way :(   If you do part it 
out, I'd be up for some of the boards and a lot of the hardware / case.

Yikes - I'm going to be ill...

Good luck and keep us up to date with your progress.
