Of interest to me is the Disk2FDI which does not require any special hardware. It requires A Pentium® processor or better and A free parallel port, preferably from a dedicated PCI …
Just one thing to remember about trayloading iMacs: If you use it regularly, expect the monitor to lose its flyback transformer within a year or two. I gave away my Rev. B (same th…
Does anybody have any experience using Disk2FDI or Catweasel?
Both products claim they can make disk images from a 400K & 800K GCR floppy, Catweasel claims to even be able…
Ya know, what that looks like is an original "Macintosh" sticker from the back of an early 128K. Maybe this was upgraded to 512, in which case you got a new "Macintosh 512K" sticke…
Weren't HyperDrive labels red text? I'd bet that is a dealer's sticker. I can't make out what the label on the auctioned Mac says. It's likely that if there was once a HyperDrive i…
It is most likely the analog board/ flyback transformer/ some other mysterious item in the dark depths of the machine that is faulty, as fiddling with the jumpers as per the variou…
Yeah, that's what all the hype over the hyperdrive is about! It's an internal hdd for
the 512k.
I believe JDW has one.
Check the flickr 68kmla group you'll find it. Or

Well it could be there. T…
careful. It might be the inverter itself. I have had cases where you push on the inverter and it will work. Usually a cold joint, but I would go find an inverter. it should be c…
I used to see tons of these on curbs. Back when I wasnt into collecting computers. This one was manafactured in 9/8/98.
I check the system profiler and it says 2 MB of SGRAM.

I like the puck mouse too. Still use a few on occasion actually too. As for whether or not the Rev. A iMac is rare, I doubt it. Pretty sure those things sold REALLY well back in…
I have spotted this one for a while. It was finally brought to me today. Its in like mint condition! Perfectly white where it need to be, and a really nice CRT. The admin that I wo…
Guess not? Well take a gander at the piccies and decide if it's worth looking into:
Here are the unimplemented pads on the DuoDock II MLB:
Here is a shot of the Duo MiniDock's …
. . . since you've got the 300 Mhz board in the 5400, there's nothing that the 6500 really has to offer that the 5400 doesn't, apart from a tower enclosure, one extra PCI slot, …
After a long an arduous few hours of almost totally dismantling the 500 just to replace the hard disk and putting it back together it worked. Briefly.
The problem now is the scree…
I believe it is a Mitsubishi Diamondtron CRT, but I don't know if you can just yank one out of a Mitsubishi model or not. And again - there's a good chance that the Mitsubishi has …
