Congratulations... and DANG! You've got it looking almost brand new!

I can't see how anyone could FAIL to get pleasure from using such a beauty!

As a last option I swapped the power board with a HP33E.

How did you reassemble the boards. I am right before soldering the components to the board. Does the black plastic part still fit over the chips to press fit the power supply and keyboard connector to the board?

And... I think every Spice refurb needs a tape strip over the back of the LED PCB.
Looks like all those little holes allow air to get to the LEDs. And if there is any battery corrosion (or the chance of it in the years to come) those corrosive substances will find their way into the LEDs and corrupt them. Cheap insurance.
