I know it wouldn't be authentic but, unlike the keyboard (which would need key caps), the Apple teardrop ADB mouse comes apart and paints up real easy with black for-plastic paint.…

Love the Mac TV, nice one.
I have a spare black mouse, but I'm in Australia...
Also, there are at least two of us here in Australia that have imported a Mac TV now but not sur…

I'm very much a fan of the 5400 and even moreso the 5500... There was a lot of machine in them for the money, with a decent video controller as well, and they were actually decentl…

According to Mactracker, the 5400 needs 70ns dimms, and the 5500 needs EDO. That may be the source of the confusion. Or maybe the overlap in speeds: Mactracker says the 5400 goes …
I would assume that if you put faster RAM in, it will just run at the slower speed if that is all the machine can handle. But when I used to service PCs, there were always some ma…

I think that with RAM speeds, unless you go too fast, you can go faster (but not slower) than the recommended. In fact, it'll make your system faster. Go ahead with 60ns 168-pin DI…
So I'm trying to clear up some confusion.
According to Low End Mac, EveryMac, and just about every other site I can find, this machine needs 70ns 168-pin DIMMs.
However, every we…

There is also the possibility to fix that 7.x bus error in software somehow. I did that on my Mystic but totally forgot what you had to do.
Edit: now that was easy... http://colou…
I seem to remember just removing a resistor fixes this. I never did the video upgrade to my classic and it boots OS's before 8 just fine.
I think this site details what I'm talkin…
Hi folks....
I have not done the 640 X 480 mod to my Color Classic yet. I would like to take a 575 logic board I just bought and plug it into my Color Classic. Can I do that wit…

Kensington made the Turbo Mouse from 1986 for the original Macs and for the Apple II (presumably with mouse card). Features include two buttons for left and right handed use, and a…

Once, I needed a drive cover for an SE. I didn't have an extra, but I did have a scrapper platinum IIe. I used a coping saw, files, and sandpaper to cut a makeshift one from part o…

Cut the @$$ end off a micro-floppy and hot glue it into the slot so it looks like it's been ejected. If someone has a clear/translucent micro-floppy to sell you, add LED edge lit H…

It would not print the right colour, it would be pure white. But if I were to buy a drive cover off of eBay, for example, it would be a different colour anyway, since my case is s…

3-D printing with ABS filament is very cool, but does it come in the right color? Is resolution high enough to re-create the subtly texturing of the SE's Case?
If I can find my mu…
