You might want to re-post this to the M.A.R.CH. list ( 
midatlanticretro at yahoogroups.com ).

If you live in proximity to Wall, NJ they're having a workshop weekend next 
weekend where things like your Osbourne are being repaired.

My Osborne 1b decided to let out the magic smoke a few weeks ago, so I ran 
out of smoke.
Need to reload the smoke, but need to identify what a component is

It's the component that says "0,1mF @X" on it.
On the side is says (I think) f0=4,9mHz 250V ~MP - so it has a capacitance 
value and a frequency.

This particular O1b is special to me, as I've had it since about 1989.
Also happens to have the Osborne Compac pocket modem, has an OCC dd upgrade, 
and a Nuevo 80-column upgrade, and a later ROM I burned to EPROM.
