I wonder if he would be concerned about the toxic fumes that thing is likely to be emitting? I think ebay would have something to say about that. Maybe someone should report it. }

I'm not entirely convinced this guy is terribly concerned with the historical accuracy of the listing.

I'll try the battery and see if that does anything.

I sent him a message correcting some of his errors. Let's see if he allows it to be displayed publicly and what his response is.

Are you using the final version of the IIe workstation software?

I would second the opinion that having that thing in your house and breathing deeply around it wouldn't be a great idea. Looking at the video I'm somewhat puzzled about what their…

That sucker reminds me too much of HAL with its omnipresent eye... :O

Does it not boot even if you wait a really long time? Is the battery good? You could try zapping the PRAM and disabling the memory test.

What a lovely piece of toxic waste. And I do mean waste. Not only is it a waste of a 512k....but with the molten plastic, damaged CRT and all, having that thing around can't be hea…

i will try to open mine later to actually see its logic board just need to go out and buy a torx screw driver. will post some pictures later or tomorrow.

A few weeks ago I got a 9600/300. It has a strange malady. When you power it up for the first time, it bongs but doesn't boot. When you turn it off and power it up a second time, i…

That's 3 TB of files! 8-o Click to expand... If they're dual-layer DVD-ROMs, factory-pressed, that's 6 TB. Which is also one of these. (They have an 8 TB model now, too, whi…

I found a photo of the 18 disc changer and it does use three cartridges of six. I also found this This one can hold 720 DVD's or DVD ROM's. That's 3 TB of files! 8-o

There was a refrigerator-size changer that used 2 drives and 48 of those 6-CD magazines at Goodwill last month. 8-o Quite the monster jukebox!

Thank you. I couldn't remember which pin it was which carried the video signal.

Yes the analogue board is the same. You need a 400K drive and ribbon cable (it can't use all 800K drive cables), a 512K logicboard with 64K ROMs, and of course a 512K bucket (with …

Well, nice try, but I wouldn't take these theories to the bank just yet. First the 512Ke is not all that common. It replaced the low-end line about 4 months after the identical 51…

I found an LC520 motherboard and I need to replace the capacitors. Problem is, the markings on C9 have corroded off, so I can't tell what value it is. Does anyone have any high-res…

I found from decoding the serial of one of my Pluses that it started life as a 512k (not 512ke) and I was thinking of changing it back. It seems I can get everything but the case b…

I loath the term "rare" simply because the use of it is sadly not rare on EBAY. Put the "rare" label on it and you can deceive more buyers. Seriously. I hate that word. "Rare" …

I have a 200ish CD Rom version made by some other brand. It's the size of a desktop tower and has 2 CD readers build in I think

Because those models are actually ridiculously common. The 512ke is in that strange place where it's definitely not "common", but it's not exactly "rare", either. Or, at least, it…

How does that theory account for all the Pluses, SE's, and Classics that are ALWAYS on ebay?

What a terrible thing to do to a mac xx(

My guess would be that it's lack of rarity is why it's not appearing. Click to expand... Ditto.
