Look on eBay for a unit with both slots filled. Or make me an offer for mine!

Inspired by many movies on the Internet about opening up a Lisa I decided to take of the top of my former Lisa. As maybe some older members know I acquired one some years ago. It i…

Bought myself an ATX power unit! Now studying the way to connect it.

Says out of stock but you can email and ask - I'd be pushy.  When I emailed about their 180mhz 3400c main board, they just said out of stock:  http://www.pchub.com/uph/laptop/344-2…

Very rare to find indeed. And I've heard...stuff...about the Newton Sales upgrade, so if I were in the market I'd try to find the Newertech part.

Hello guys, I found a very nice IIgs with monitor and drives. I works great, but I can't connect it to the RGB screen as I don't have the proper cable. Does anyone have a spare t…

Super! Thanks very much for the power information. I will try to get an ATX power unit.

[Obviously that was partly off-topic but the same holds to the Restore CD.  Does the license with that software pass through the individual buyer or through the machine - can that …

Apparently the editing just expired.  [i actually missed your eBay suggestion - that's also part of my fascination - buying an almost certainly used copy... would that convey the l…

I understand why you'd think that this is piracy.  However, though the copyright office doesn't seem to have anything filed on System 7... (http://cocatalog.loc.gov/cgi-bin/Pwebrec…
