So on my original Macintosh LC (the one I just rebuilt) it refuses to play nice with any external SCSI device.
The weird thing is that internal SCSI works fine, and it boots off a…
1: No, I'm pretty sure that Microdocks never had SCSI. However, if you're talking about a Minidock, then everyone of those had SCSI, and they are not rare.
2: All Duo docks (regul…
HEY EVERYBODY! MY NAME IS RICHARD, AND THE REASON I AM MAKING THIS POST IS THAT I WAS WONDERING SOMETHING ABOUT SCSI "MICRODOCKS" FOR POWERBOOK DUOS. MY QUESTION IS ARE THEY RARE?

Please go pick this up now! I'd gladly reimburse for a couple 57X's next time I'm over there.
Also a $5 IIgs, some early PMacs ... good day for vintage computer buffs!
So before I came here, my Macintosh LC (my original one) had to be parted out because there was only a grey screen on startup and the floppy drive was totally dead. (it wouldn't re…
Nice score on some great gear!
I've always had a special place for the case styling of the 81/8500 series of computers. A nice looking mini-tower, with power under the hood.
I ha…
Eh, don't feel that way. As long as the HD's not a Conner, it should be perfectly fine. In fact, these drives pop up on eBay sometimes.
I even saw a lot of 14 2.5 SCSI hard drives…
This look interesting as well:

I've contacted the guy about the pricing and availability.
Is the 40 MB 2.5 SCSI HD a Conner? If so, then those weren't very reliable and had a tendency to die, so I'm pretty sure the HD's toast.
The reason why it has no SCSI power connec…

A 2.5" only needs +5VDC so that should be easy enough. You can get pinouts of drives at http://pinouts.ru/pin_HD.shtml
I was just looking online and there are adapters available. …
Hi,
I've looked at what I have, and I'm unsure how to follow this project. Let's see:
I reopen my IIgs and looked inside it. There is no such thing as a way to get a 3.5" HD powe…
I had a bit of time yesternight to look at the Apple Macintosh CD which is for the 7200, 9500 and a few other Macs. It's dated 1996 and says that it has System 7.5.3 on it. However…

***Correction***
The PPC is a 7300/180, not a 7200. Its running a version of system 8.
***Update***
The LC 575 also is running system 8, but a bit less hapily than the 7300, won…

It's a coincidence that you mention that, because I've had the CD for years now and never could use the OS (just the assorted goodies like Gerbils and what-not). I have not tried i…

After i picked up my 8100/110 several months ago, i had no monitor to use with it. On sunday, i found someone on craigslist selling a 7200 with monitor and a bunch of accessories, …
To be frank, I'd stick with System 7.1 and not touch System 7.5.3. Your Macintosh Classic II will feel slower with System 7.5.3.
50-pin hard drives (which your Macintosh Classic I…
There's an electronics waste/collection place by my house, and every once in awhile, I check out what's in the dumpster behind the building. So far I've acquired a Netpliance I-Ope…
If you want a copy of the original 7.1.2 for PowerPC, I think I just found my OS disc collection, and could image the disc for you. (Only the very first set of PPCs could run 7.1.…
