I got an email from a person in my area who asked if I wanted an old "Performa type" computer, with large B&W office printer. He was located only 2 blocks from me, so of co…

Darn, I didn't think of that. It worked! Although I don't remember having to use an enabler in the past. :-/

To run 7.1 on an LC III you need a system enabler that's probably not on the installer disk but *is* on the disk tools disk. http://support.apple.com/kb/TA47341?viewlocale=en_US

After my LC III sat unused for a few months, which had/has bad caps. So I removed the ROM's and washed the board. I probably screwed something up by putting the ROM's in the wrong …

I don't know if it's a case of too many contestants or too few voters, but we seem to have ended up with no less than five RetroChallengers in the top three slots! Without further …

It was very common to see Lisa 2s sold with an external 5MB ProFile instead of an internal drive. As I recall Apple marketed the Lisa 2 in three configurations: base, 5MB external,…

MC Price Breakers is stilling selling a card that will hold a small 2.5 SCSI Hard for the IIgs. It appears the card will power the HD. Just a thought since I just ran across it lo…

Update: I used MacADT to transfer the disks, but only managed to get the same 11 which I had originally made into .shk archives. I have now uploaded the whole package to asimov. So…

They came today, now if only I had an old Mac here to put them in! (for those who aren't in the know, I'm living on campus at uni, all my computers apart from the MacBook and th…

I've got the Mac Video/ADB Version of that SwitchBox, is that what you've got there? If so, THAT is an awesome 68k peripheral conquest all on its ownesome! Click to expand... I g…

Oh, I know what they are. The reason I asked is because auto-injects don't seem terribly common these days.

I've been around, popped in here every now and then, just had nothing to say. I've finally got power in me shed, so now I can start testing, bagging and tagging the collection. I…

AusNick, haven't seen you on here in a while, good to see you're still playing around with the old Macs. Either way, not a bad score - spare drives and mice are always handy to hav…

The other week, I did the Outlook recycling joint in Mornington. No Macs. But, there are Mac Bits 1x internal floppy drive on sled. 1x internal AppleCD 300 Plus on sled. 6x AD…

Thank you for the replies. Dealing with a cranky car right now and won't be able to dive in on this until the weekend.

Ahh, yes...there really is something about the simplicity of older Macs that just seems to.....work that newer machines lack.... Click to expand... You betcha, comrade! I'…

Ohmygosh envious!! How lucky are you?!

Where do you guys find these "recyclers"? Are there any in VA? :-/ Awesome finds!

This one may not be too far away, though...I'm trying to find out. I'd like to have the 575s. Don't really want to pay for the whole lot though. Click to expand... No respons…

Hi, Sent you an email. What is really interesting is that there are other disks still out there. A quick type in Apple Disk brought back over 15K of results. Only a small percenta…

I just removed the resistors, which was incredibly difficult, my 15w iron didn't seem to melt the factory solder very well, and then just cut small wires, tinned them and soldered …
