512ke rare? — #22
A subject of some humorous debate on Cubeowner.com. What is a Cube? Original? Certainly. Hot-rodded? Those who have a "daily driver" cube have all hopped up the CPU and GPU, instal…

I have no intention whatsoever to bid on it, nor did I post that to encourage anyone here to bid on it. I was merely using it as an example when talking about the overuse of the w…

JDW, that auction is interesting...
It's not TOO far from me (~160 mi,) so I think I'll bid on it. (And so we don't get into a bidding war, I bid an amount that will make price+s…

When I spotted this Mac 512ke auction, I couldn't help but remember this thread. The seller is basically selling a Mac Plus but he is pitching it heavily as a 512ke because he fee…
Deep IIci rejuvenation, possible ROM select problem — #25
For those 68k diehards that see this and think that I've sacrificed the authenticity of this logic board by removing the original PROMs and installing newfangled socketed PLCC Flas…
LC II Buying info? — #13
but there was never really a call for a dual-floppy LC since most color software took up more than one 1.4MB disk, especially those that came out right after the LC was released.

Deep IIci rejuvenation, possible ROM select problem — #24
UPDATE
I have acquired some PLCC-32 to DIP-32 adapters and installed them in place of the onboard ROMs of this Mac IIci.

If you just want a functional compact Mac, then you would be better to get a 512k or 512ke motherboard until you can manage to get your hands on a 128k motherboard. The 128k is a v…

It's my understanding that the SegmentLoader only read program segments FROM the floppy disk, and didn't write them back to the disk. Is that true?

I have to say that it will be a lot of work to get that board back to original condition or at least functionally original. The missing chips will have to be found and if the RAM o…

With 128K the OS is forced to swap out program segments to the 400K floppy, and it is SLOW!

To get the board to work (as 128K) you need to plug 74LS244s into the 2 big sockets, and resistor packs into RP2 and RP3. The resistor packs need to be 10 pins each with 5 individu…

How do you know if its the orginal Macintosh M0001 model? — #29
Your Mac shows 512K because it has the original 64K ROMs most likely. You actually have 1.5MB of RAM installed, it looks like. The mobo RAM chips have probably been replaced upgrad…

I have no idea if the 128K SIMMs work with any Mac. I suppose I could try, though. At worst, it'll beep at me. (I could try it in pair with a couple known-size SIMMs, it would b…

Agree with H3NRY. Almost all upgrade cards required 512K on the motherboard. However, correct me if I'm wrong H3NRY, a few bypassed the logic board altogether? It would be the exce…

The SE/30, with its eight banks, could do 1.5 MB, as 4x256 and 4x128, although I don't think 128s were officially supported, and were exceedingly rare. (I think I have two of them,…

I recall the Plus supported 256KB SIMMs and 1 MB SIMMs, in any combination of pairs. So 2x256 (which would be strange, since it's lower than it shipped with,) 4x256, 2x1MB, 2x256+…
