As for the Daystar Diskrunner, I know next to nothing about it. Click to expand... Same here, but I do seem to recall someone else here extolling their virtues. I'll see if I …

I am a jealous, jealous man right now. Any unwanted goodies among the haul of audio gear?

Another thing is the heat as well...not such a problem in Winter, but in the middle of Summer it gets bloody hot in a car boot...my Dad leaves his work laptop in the boot of his ca…

A better idea is to start collecting old paper currency then when you get flung back in time exchange it for gold coin. Click to expand... But you never know when you'll be une…

Speaking of stock, how about if you had bought Apple in late 2002-early 2003 when it was $14 per share? Not only has it gone up big time since then (well over $200 now), it also sp…

thats just people, were stupid! if I had my pick id go with woz or balmer, they are both a hoot, leaning towards woz but becuase I am a big electronics nut

Yeah, if you can stand having an asshole for a best friend. I honestly don't see how a nice guy like Woz was ever able to tolerate a jerk like Jobs.

or make buddies with a young gate / jobs / etc and ride the ride

You would have done much better (and cash out sooner) buying some Microsoft stock instead of that mac. Click to expand... Buy Iomega in early 1994 at $.30 per share and sell af…

According to Wolfram|Alpha, the average inflation rate from 1984 to 2008 (the latest year available) was 3.75%. $2495 at 3.75% for 26 years comes to $6500. If this auction goes o…

It also depends on whether on is discussing the inflation adjusted value or not.

Once upon a time it was worth $2495.00. How many years will it take to surpass its new price? Eventually even Model T Fords became worth more than new.

Unknown K, $400 is way too much for a 512Ke. I rarely see those even get close to $100. I haven't priced these cards lately on eBay, but assuming they are quite rare then maybe. Bu…

I didn't mean to imply it was in any way a better value than an actual Plus, just trying my best with the limited knowledge I have to explain how it works. If I were to recommend a…

$400 does seem to be a bit high, he will probably keep lowering the price over time until somebody snags it. I sometimes wonder where prices for this kind of stuff will end up bei…

Quadraman, JDW's right, if you want a compact Mac with SCSI and more than 512K RAM, a Mac Plus is the way to. There is absolutely no difference between them, except the Dove Mac Sn…

That upgrade doesn't look like it includes the SCSI controller and only has 512k on the board. The seller needs to add more pictures to make it more clear what's included.

Folks, unless you want this merely to say you've added "a Dove board to your collection," you'd be better off with a true Mac Plus. Seriously. Besides, there's a Dove upgrade boa…

The Dove board fitted over the existing RAM. I'm not quite sure how, but everything I've seen about it says it snaps into place on top of the existing RAM chips. The Dove upgrade c…

I read that as 2MB of RAM with SCSI from the auction. Was the 512ke able to go that high without a Mac Plus logic board swap?

$400?!? Dang.. He/she should have at least made it open to bidding, and started a little lower. Then he/she would be fairly likely to get that. But with a simple buy-it-now at …

The machine has chew marks on it from someone opening the case improperly in the past. It also has a noticeable deep scratch in the front plastic, just about the CRT. It is also …
