System 3 - Juliet Elysa? Damn... You should get System 6 and get more software for the Plus. A lot of things that will run on System 7 will on on System 6. 

plus is a great machine!

Aw, sorry to hear about the PowerBook. But congrats on finally finding a Plus! Especially a working one. I love mine, though I can't really do much on it due to a lack of softwa…

I had a few bad Macintosh Conquests lately.  From a local recycler I got a Powerbook 140 & a Macintosh IIcx which don't work.  The Powerbook is beyond help, the Macintosh I…

That is just plain weird. I've seen a lot of odd electronics, but never a chip-on-chip socket like that. 

Oh butts. Oh well. Live and learn.......

Here's a pic of both.

Not gonna lie... I need some of this stuff!

Before all of that is the Apple Answer Book QA. It has a beige cover, blue text with white knock outs. Content is Apple II and III. It's a three punch hole publication. The Apple A…

I think there's also a device you can buy just for doing low-level formats without the need of a ProFile card and special ROM.  I seem to recall seeing one on eBay.

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll use it for storage of one of my Pluses. I have another stored in the original box.

Yes - that case is cool!

I agree with Benson, I'd love to have a case like that for permanent mac storage.

dat flightcase :O

Is this the chip which allows to low format a Profile ?

Could you explain a little bit where this is for?

Was conquered at some stage or another so why the hell not?

Eh, it counts.

Is it a conquest if you uncover something in your own storage space? I have a workshop in my garage that's been home to my Apple/Mac accumulation for over 10 years. I'm moving lat…
