Sweet deal! I used LC 5xxs at school often.

I always thought that the 575's were the fugliest macs ever. But I really would not mind owning one and especially at that price! The Price is right!

So the floppy drive on my IIci is acting up. When I insert a good boot disk, it just sits there with the "?". No X, no "This installer will not work with this Macintosh", etc. Wha…

My LC 575 (well, Performa 578 if you want to get technical) gets daily use. As beachycove said, it's practically silent. I love it! From an aesthetic point of view, it's one of my …

I think they were great machines. Some do not like them from an aesthetic point of view, but in the flesh (plastic?), they actually look a great deal like the Color Classic. The sc…

How big of a room would a Macintosh 128k fill if you expanded every single microchip so that each circuit path is the width of a thin piece of wire? My estimate would be that each…

Speaking of Usenet, where is comp.sys.mac.vintage or the equivalent? I've already got comp.sys.apple2. :-* The thing I love about Usenet is that there are no rules; only eterna…

Hmm, this topic has certainly made "progress" and I find it fairly amusing. I will put my real 2 cents in on the matter, even if I end up just reiterating what has already been sai…

This thread is going wayyyyy off topic, I think replies should not be allowed any more : I hope this problem gets resolved.

If you don't like the lounge don't read it - simples. Without a forum like the lounge where people can let of steam an talk off topic the other Mac related forums will become far …

Ahh, fond memories. My first Mac was an LC 575... paid $250 or so for it, used. That was back in 4th grade. Have fun with those! :beige:

Mac OS PLUS X. Stick a mini in there. Or fix it.
