Macintosh SE: My first compact! — #3

The velco strips could have been for one of those screens that keep people from seeing what you are typing (or for a paper holder that mounts on the side of the case). Click to …

Macintosh SE: My first compact! — #2

Very good price. The velco strips could have been for one of those screens that keep people from seeing what you are typing (or for a paper holder that mounts on the side of the ca…

Macintosh SE: My first compact! — #1

I finally got my first compact Mac today, a SE Dual Floppy :lol: . It came in a SE box, to my surprise, though unfortunately it is a SE SuperDrive box not a regular SE box. T…

Lead on some older hardware — #1

I am told that later in the week I am going to be given a (dead screen) Mac Plus, a matching external HD, a IIfx in a Mac II case, a wide carriage ImageWriter printer, an early 21"…

SE ROM In Plus — #8

except for a serial mouse. Click to expand... I've never known a Macintosh with a "serial mouse". Where does this mythical beast fit it to the picture? Click to expand... W…

Personal LasterWriter 300 — #2

On any list of dreadful Apple printers, the LW 300 will find a place... For drivers, you'll need to provide feedback about OS versions that you plan using. If you are running Syst…

SE ROM In Plus — #6

I'd expect any SE/Plus ROM combination to fail. The significant differences between Plus and SE are ADB and PDS, although I imagine there are tweaks around serial and sound too. P…

SE ROM In Plus — #5

Cool experiment though. Now we know for sure what happens. Click to expand... Yes. It makes me wonder if there is a pin incompatibility or a software one. I should have put th…

Personal LasterWriter 300 — #1

Scored a personal laserwriter 300 at a church rummage sale for $5 over the weekend. I don't know if that is a good deal yet, as I have not tried it out but for $5 I figured I'd ro…

What do you guys think? — #11

Wow, $40 is a bargain, really. I guess it's different over here (they never sold outside the US) but I paid a lot more than that for my system. Although it was more complete and i…

SE ROM In Plus — #3

chances are you'll just get a very unhappy frowning mac in the middle of your screen. Click to expand... Not even. No bong, just garbage on the screen.

SE ROM In Plus — #2

Anybody tired SE ROMs in a Plus? Any reason not to try in terms of risking damage? There is some software that will only run on an SE. My SEs are packed away or otherwise disassemb…

Get an Apple 2, a Commodore 64 or something else that uses a TV for its video output. Matter of fact, a C64 or the much more powerful C128 painted black and set up as if it were th…

Congrats! You now have a very rare piece of apple hardware! I was going to say to lower the price to 40$ as I think that is the golden price before something gets to expensive. I…

Thanks fellas. I went ahead and offered $40 for it, and he accepted. As it turns out, he's a collector too and has a COMPLETE Macintosh TV with original box, remote, documentation…

I'd grab it. As Mike said, Mac TVs themselves are far from common. Only 10,000 were made, maybe a quarter of which would still exist today, and they were never sold outside of the …

I would try to pick it up. Mac TV's themselves aren't exactly common either. A black ADB Mouse could be fabricated in the mean time. Just paint a good condition, but yellowed mous…

I saw a complete (no docs/disks) Mac TV system sell on eBay for around $30 before shipping a couple years ago. That buyer probably thought it was worth $80 to him. On another mor…

Only if you realy want one. The ones worth money are the units 100% complete and original with all docs and software. I have a LC 550 (same unit just not black) and to be honest it…
