Well I'm back to working at the old Apple shop on campus as the resident Apple Tech, and just to sweeten the deal my boss gave me a LaserWriter 12/640 which appears to be in mint c…

Before I knew it, my hands, my SyQuest, my CD-ROM drive, my pristine Extended II keyboard, the SE itself, and the ADB mouse II all had the tar on them. Click to expand... …

The SCSI ID Jumper settings were actually on a sticker on the drive… [] ]'>

Are you saying that it could be risky to put jumpers on random pins hoping it will change the SCSI ID to what you want?

I'm going to my grandma's house tomorow, so i'm hoping that the Preforma 630CD i stuck in her attic when i was ~6 years old is still there! *crosses fingers*

As fake as this sounds, I already cleaned it off with Goo Gone. Still though, the real problem remains, how will I ever know what pins to attach the SCSI ID jumper cables to?

Pics or it didn't happen.

Alright, tried my best to fix everything. Hopefully it looks good!

The picture isn't the best quality, and it doesn't show the entire room. However, just about everything in the basement is from the 70s - 80s and is all in perfect condition. The d…
