First things first, you must use a SCSI Zip drive on that Mac. Parallel port Zip drives require a parallel port, which is only found on PCs, if you connect a parallel port device t…
Who can tell me how to hook an external Zip drive to my Performer 630CD? I have access to a Zip 250 external drive but don't know how to hook it to my Mac?

No sweat. I really appreciate this. As for versions, I think System 4.1 was the last version to support the 512k M0001, am I right?
Whatever is supported will be cool.
Thanks aga…

I have one of the early "unbitten" bags, too. There must have been a run of at least a couple hundred, because my Apple][ is a late '77 rev. 2 motherboard with color killer and 6-c…
There are notes on the digital schematic of which parts are not present on the 128K board. The two boards are alike except the RAM array on the 512 obviously has 256K chips instead…
And that's why I posted links to Rescue My Classic Mac. Were all pretty busy and/or aren't prepared to burn a disk at any given time. Charity only seems to go as far as convenience…

I seem to recall reading in the manual for the original Macintosh that the numeric keypad plugged into the keyboard port on the front, and had two RJ-12 jacks - one for the connect…
Brilliant!
What does the numeric keypad plug into? Serial port?

The numeric keypads are actually connected in a chain with the keyboard on the early Macs. Yo…
