Tempest, Would you be looking for a black terminator? A couple of days ago, I found my old one (got rid of the IIfx some time ago). John

Awesome :lc:

Thank you very much for your efforts and this info. A friend of mine is working on constructing a comprehensive timeline/graph of mac models and prices over their respective lifeti…

According to the hard drives article (page 120) in December 1990 MacUser, "the Mac IIfx differs from previous Macs in that it requires so-called black terminators with built-in fil…

I've got the December 1990 issue of MacUser to my left. In the introductory article for the IIsi, LC, and Classic, there's a table of the "New Mac Family" The following prices and…

It would appear that both power supplies are good, and the 3rd power supply that Tempest sent is good as well. This is the one that tested bad before. I'm thinking that the bad c…

I use the AA and AAA lithium which are usually around 1.55 volts when new.

Sounds like an FPU card. I have one for my LC.

I thought the 68882 was matched with a 68030, but it can work with a 68020 too?

Would I have to solder the wires to the existing battery socket? If I could attach the wires without soldering, that would be better. Click to expand... In the case of machines…

NICE!!!!! We should make smilies for all the popular macs. Like an iMac G3, Quadra 840AV, etc etc...

well that would be for any LC that has a 68020 or 68030 CPU that doesnt have a CPU on board... should be LC and LC II - LC III(+) had a socket for a FPU onboard, right? oh and they…

Looks great !

I dont have a problem with buying batteries online, but only from certain trusted places, random google hits and ebay are just too loaded with half battery half led weight for me t…

Do I have to use surface mount capacitors? Or could I use one that's the same rating, but just solder the wires to the pads? My hands shake too much and I have the hardest time t…

Do you have any pictures?

The discontinuation date of both SE models is a topic that has caused much confusion in the vintage Macintosh community. The SE/30 remained in production until October 1991. In fa…

I got a brand new SAFT 3.6V lithium online for a good price. My multimeter shows its perfectly good.

I got 1990 issues of MacUser requested from the storage facility an hour ago, and should have them in 3 hours from now. Hang tight. Click to expand... Excellent! Thank you so m…

Tempest and I made an agreement for him to send me 2 broken Mac II's (one somewhat gutted) in exchange for repair and recap of his IIfx logic board. I basically paid to have the s…

In a box of parts, I have a 16MHz 68882 in a socket on what I think is a right angle LCPDS card. It is a small device, shaped rather like an LCPDS network card, but that could just…
