[NTLK] MP2100 repair, help needed

[Matthias Melcher]

I received my super caps - I used the original specs because those were easily available - and replaced one in the remaining failing MP2000. Unfortunately this did not fix the non-start issue. It likely does fix the issue where the Newton forgets time and date, but I can't verify that yet.

My oscilloscope is ready and I will do a more thorough investigation as time permits.
