Never before has Trash-80 been a such suitable nickname. :-( Well, since I was going to open it anyway, I hope the monitor can be relocated into place and that nothing has broken too badly.
It is definitely not Terry's fault. The computer was very well packaged with both thick bubble wrap and packing chips. He had also written THIS SIDE UP and drawn large arrows on the cardboard. Unfortunately, the Swedish post office people don't speak very good English and are unfamiliar with geometric shapes such as arrows, so it was delivered on its side. That alone could be fault enough if it has been shipped around like that. Also, the dislocated screen has signs of moist on the inside that I will need to investigate.
Oh well, even if it doesn't work it will be something to look at and discuss.. :-(
