Cheers for the infor guys! Yes I must admit I am loving this whole SYstem 7 on an LCD experience... beautiful! This 1501 was chucked in with my current G5 when I bought it and …

Basically any Dell UltraSharp is a great choice, they tend to pretty much take any input.

Hi Schmoburger, Like you I have a 15" LCD (NEC white which matches the 68K machines nicely) which suits my needs perfectly well, along with a 10" Lillput VGA LCD for bench testing…

Welp, took a dive and it paid off... Never has System 7.5 looked so great! { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", …

Heck, I've run my Quadra 700 on a 32" Bravia! You just need the right converter and monitor. I've also run it on two different 22" LG monitors.

As the title suggests, I am jonesing for some info regarding the use of modernish TFT displays on pre-PPC Macs, as I have a couple of VGA adaptors and limited space. I assume the o…

Well now ya seen one! 337-0001 is the Apple part number for the 68000. Not super common though, just like the ones that also have an Apple copyright on the 68000. Not that i wou…

I have seen the Motorola and Hitachi 68ks but never one with an Apple Part number on it on a 68K Classic. Not saying that they don't exist,  but I never seen one. I've also seen a…

Blank? That's really annoying. Companies that don't properly label their parts should be shot.

Nope. In fact I found another chip just like it today when going through my stock of 512k spares. Apples got these where ever they could it seems. Some think the purple ceramics ar…

Looks like your CPU was replaced at one time or another, it does not look like an Apple/Motorola 68K to me (see below). Pins 7 & 8 are the High/Low Data Strobe and Pin 45 i…

The 68000 on one of my Mac 512k's seems to have had three pins connected to something at one point.   Curious if folks can guess what device/upgrade might have originally been i…

Im trying to make a somewhat comprehensive list of compact Macs and the many, many variations. I noticed that the Plus normally carries the model M0001A. But I see there is a varia…

One of these days I'll make it there.

KansasFest 2015, the 27th annual Apple II convention, is scheduled for July 14 –19 in Kansas City, Missouri. Rebecca “Burger Becky” Heineman, a prolific computer game programmer, d…

Bad solder joints. There's a thread somewhere on here about that problem with some photos of which ones you'll want to freshen up.

Yeah they look like platinum, one is slightly yellowed. Also, one of them I sometimes need to smack a couple of times to get the crt on. Any ideas what the problem is? Just a loose…

Even more impressive is that you got two keyboards and two external hard drives!! Are they both platinum?

Well done! That's what I call a good trade!
