In a box of parts, I have a 16MHz 68882 in a socket on what I think is a right angle LCPDS card. It is a small device, shaped rather like an LCPDS network card, but that could just…

Ah, thank you for that insight. I hope I can find an online database that contains those magazines or if someone here has access to an issue of either publication around the middle…

Hardware sequencers are pretty tight, it's true. What model/s are you considering? If you want to keep computer-style sequencing as an option, have you considered an Atari 540 or …

One need only reference old MacUser or MacWorld magazines during that period to determine price and price stability from debut to EOL. I have those magazines at my parent's home i…

That's what I'm not so sure about. The SE/30 got canned in Oct. 1990 after only being introduced in Jan. 1989. I figure by May/June of 1990 Apple knew where they were headed with t…

*Looks at his Classic 2* *Decides not to reply*

apple-history.com has $4,369 in 1989... presumably the price wouldn't have changed much by 1990.

Does anyone know what a basic SE/30 would have cost in the first half of 1990?

I just did last month. I got a 20mb SE with a 68020 accelerator installed and was trying to get it apart because the accelerator wasn't seated securely in the slot. I yanked on a c…

I recently received an old 400mhz blue and white g3 from someone and intended to use if for some pre-OSX stuff I have. I managed to get it to start up, and was able to boot from th…

The only one I ever snapped was totally on purpose, with a hammer, while building the Macminitosh. Kind of fun, though! But I'm always afraid whenever I have to use some force…

I came very close on my Classic II while refurbing it. I am rather hesitant now to monkey around inside my Mac now unless I have no other choice...

OK who here has snapped the neck of a CRT during a repair attempt? Raise your hand! lol My first classic Mac, an SE. I did this a few years ago. SNAP! I was bummed. Well I fo…

Turned out to be leaky caps! Cleaned it up and it works. But I snapped one cap off so I ordered a set of caps to replace 'em all.

I want to get down to a couple of ms of MIDI jitter. So far I'm at about 5ms with my computer setup. I'm now only recording simple note on/off events to make sure nothing is cloggi…

You will be limited to the number of tracks you can run on a Classic. Performer is the best of the lot in those days. But you will run into the same problem if try to jam too much …

Because MIDI latency and jitter on modern computers is a problem. I've been contemplating in either get a dedicated hardware MIDI sequencer or an old Mac for MIDI sequencing, so I …
