I remember throwing a heap of those self-paced training videos out about 10 years ago. I still have the certificates for successfully completing the "self-track" courses. (You to…

It's just happened again. I can confirm the system is 100% unresponsive when it happens. It doesn't respond to ping, there's no sound and an external display doesn't do a thing. Wh…
Dear 68kMLA Community,
My times on this forum have been wonderful. I have enjoyed learning about the vintage Macintoshes from all of you, and I would not be in this position with …
If someone here is bidding on this, please let me know. I will try to win them, but if there is an Australian member about to purchase these and they are willing to upload them, t…
Either way, it'd be great if someone here was to buy them and put them up on youtube or something - if I had some disposable income I'd be doing it, but I currently have no access …

After a night of test installations today I managed to install a stable version of 9.1+ onto a 7200 with Sonnet G3/400/1MB L2/224MB RAM, ATI Rage, 1GB Harddisk and a TEAC CD burner…
Yeah stupid me, I meant tip. Some of the joints are quite small. Tomlee: Yes data suggests otherwise. I may actually be selling the Classic 2! I got an offer from Classic Mac 500
I always liked working on my PB 170 (when it was alive) but I absolutely abhored my PowerBook 190. That thing broke so often, it was not even funny. I lost my homework everytime i…
