Ladies and Gentlemen, I still cannot find the quote button in this forum. Did it get eliminated for some reason? I've opened this forum in FireFox and Safari but I still cannot s…
Regarding the dead PMG4:
The reason it isn't responding, powering up or waking from sleep is due to the Power Management Unit getting a bit screwed up. To fix the problem, I woul…

Can you give some links of the 6v lead acid battery I should buy and exact specs?I understand nothing regarding electonics and electricity!

JDW, be that as it may, I think we tend to lose a little perspective around here, due to our nostalgic love for these little B&W compacts.
I was around then, and 9" B&…
The 68020 was usually mated to the 68881. I'm not sure if they can be interchanged or not. The card is probably for the LC II and III/III+ (or maybe just the III/III+ if the connec…
Great points, JDW!
A comment worth pointing out about the SE/30--according to the fourth edition of the Macintosh Bible, Apple was rumored to have been thinking about re-releasing…
if I look off the network settings for the G5 Tower that auto-connects, is there a way i could manually enter that info in on the G4 MDD?

Yeah, I wouldn't doubt. I think that was the initial reason it was disconnected in the first place, I guess I just "happened" to revive it for a few months. And I've had an AWEFUL …

The power supplies on that model are known to fail, so that may be what died. As for ethernet, sometimes the computer won't autonegotiate a suitable connection with the central hub…
Is it just me, or is the "quote" button missing from our forum today?
Anyway...
Also, bear in mind that the Classic II replaced the SE/30.

probally, this was still during the time where the computer industry was really just snagging everything off of the shelf (the mac is about the end of that era, after that you star…
yea it should not be hard to add the termination, but resistors alone do nothing for noise, you need a rc network
by the time you figure out what noise is present and do the math …
I haven't looked at the specs, but it's probably not a big deal to change out the internal terminator packs with the "proper value" of resistor to create an on-board Black Terminat…

Do you use two (3.1V) or three (4.65V) to replace a 3.6V PRAM battery? Or are you referring to replacing the 4.5V square PRAM batteries as pictured above?
I did a couple of years ago or so to an SE/30. And I had years and years and dozens of entries and exits to Plus's and 128/512s behind me with no neck snapping. Sigh.
BTW, I fou…
Gottcha. Well I went to work on it today (finally), and the machine is dead. I always kept the computer in sleep mode while I was logged in and the computer was locked, and apparen…
