These issues aren't so major, but i'm after some ideas as to why they may be occuring.
1. When powering up the Mac from a Cold Start (such as turning it on after being switched of…

The 650, like the other Quadras, didn't actually come with a monitor, you had to provide one yourself. Typical monitors that were used on it included:
- The Macintosh Color Displa…
So this quest kind of died out this winter. I haven't really found too much more info, but I have an update. My 2400c lives again! My Mac OS 9 installation (or something :?: ) wa…

Hi all,
Did the SE/30 have diferent chimes over time?
Mine has the usual "Macintosh II" chime, just as stated in Macracker for that model. But this sounds wrong to my ears, in re…

What would the Centris 650 original monitor look like? If it didn't come with one, what would the monitors for that time look like? I would answer this myself, but Archive.org ha…
Some people view the gas and time spent running around looking for machines is wasted, I think it is part of the fun in collecting.

I don't collect thinking of profit down the road, and didn't notice the auction had free shipping.

$50 a machine, not exactly the best deal in the world considering shipping charges. I guess if you were local it might be worth it.

Lovely machine, especially when you add a full '040, 1MB video and lots of RAM. Plays DOOM-era games and of course great performance with apps. Speakers are going iffy on mine thou…
I'd always wanted a 575! When I was quite young I was begging my parents for a Performa AIO but all we found on sale was the 550, we bought it for $990, REFURBED. It did the trick …
I always thought that the 575's were the fugliest macs ever. But I really would not mind owning one and especially at that price! The Price is right!

Yes, I fear that your TiBook has developed a problem with the BGA joints under the graphics chip. This problem is unfortunately widespread (the early iBooks were infamously prone t…

The LC 5xx line is indestructable! I have a clean LC 580 with 52 MB (max) ram, 3 GB HD, System 7.5.5 and it runs any 68k app with ease. Never had any issues with it.
I just got a 575 a couple of weeks ago from AnalogKid. I love it, the screen is crisp and it with After Dark running it has been a great distraction for my new kitten. :lol:
In my book, the Color Classic or G3 AIO wins the "fugly" contest.

I like the CC. I just wish it could do 640x480 standard. The "Mystic" CC with VGA hack is…
