Thanks Phreakout! I tried booting the SE/30 from a floppy while holding down the shift key, but that didn't do the trick. While I'm waiting for your OS disks, is there any method …

Interesting. Huh. Just for kicks, try rebooting again, but this time hold down the Shift key. This will prevent any extensions or the like from loading. If this doesn't wor…

OK guys, excellent suggestions. I have some good news and some bad news. The Macintosh Classic I have now is indeed a Classic 1. Following Phreakout's instructions, I successfully…

No, the issue at hand is that you're not supposed to change that extension (even if it seems as small as image. to img. no matter what. phreakout's suggestion is very good (I forg…

Dita, did you say earlier you have a Mac Classic, recently acquired? If so, is it a Classic 1 or Classic 2? If it's a Classic 1, then try the following: Step 1: Restart the Cla…

Just got one yesterday for free! Drove 45 minutes to get it. I got 6 boxes of disks with it, a bunch of software, 2 drives, and all the manuals with it. Actually, got 3 copies o…

While I am awaiting Phreakout's OS disk set, I recently got my PC back up and running Windows XP. Since I can now read and write floppy disks, I checked out JLW's detailed post reg…

This was my first computer ever. I LOVE them. It was still my primary computer up until December 1999, when I bought an iMac.

I would look for Office 2004, and not any earlier version, mainly as MS has a free utility that allows you to read docx etc. files in it. That alone, apart from numerous interface …

Thanks. I may be able to snag an upgrade disk for that. Should update from a Word 98 product, I would think...?!?

A very solid patch has been released for all relevant devices and it works fine.

You have two Key Lime iBooks! :O Very nice...definitely a machine I'd love to get my hands on one day Click to expand... Those are very pretty. But I like my blueberryBook.
