Had a horrible time trying to find out what was wrong with it only to discover after a lot of messing about it was my us/uk adapter had died for the charger so the battery was just…

Very interesting...I suppose if the voltage is correct it may work though. I know this is somewhat off-topic, but since car batteries have been brought up, does anyone know of a g…

Aargh! I got all the screws out, but I can't get the case off! It seems to be sticking near the spacebar, in the center front. Any good ways to get the case off? Click to exp…

Apple IIc just arrived! (Minus the power supply; I'll have to contact the seller to ask about that) It certainly looks yellow, and it's a bit dirty, but otherwise the keys seem g…

How do you charge this thing if the main battery is dead? Remove it and plug it into the wall?
