Once, I needed a drive cover for an SE. I didn't have an extra, but I did have a scrapper platinum IIe. I used a coping saw, files, and sandpaper to cut a makeshift one from part o…

Cut the @$$ end off a micro-floppy and hot glue it into the slot so it looks like it's been ejected. If someone has a clear/translucent micro-floppy to sell you, add LED edge lit H…

It would not print the right colour, it would be pure white.  But if I were to buy a drive cover off of eBay, for example, it would be a different colour anyway, since my case is s…

3-D printing with ABS filament is very cool, but does it come in the right color? Is resolution high enough to re-create the subtly texturing of the SE's Case? If I can find my mu…

They have 3D printers at the school I work at. It's pretty cheap to print. For example, I printed a case for my iPhone, it cost $0.55. I'm not sure if there is a 3D scanner there,…

I don't know if they ever made one specifically, but there were adapters out there.  I think our own member bbraun has/makes an adapter to connect ADB to pre-ADB Macs.

Did Kensington ever make a trackball for the Mac 128k/512k/Plus? I much prefer trackballs to mice with my classic Macs and have a couple ADB models for use with my SE/30's and even…

The 575 was always the pick of the crop for me... Has the nice Sony screen still but has the '040 in it so still quite usable. As a series though, the 5xx are still probably among …

I still would like to get one of these. I have the TV and I finally found an LC580 but the screen just isn't the same on the 580.

I like the case a lot.

Nice! I know some dont care for these. But one of em it near the top of my list.

Just added this to my collection Macintosh LC 520     The 68030 is too slow to play Doom but it does run Master of Orion well enough.    

Another question I have is around how to burn CDs such that they can be read by the LC 520.   I tried burning one on my Mac Book Pro but I keep getting a disk not initialized error…

I would never ship an LC5XX variant in the same box.  I would remove the CRT and front bezel, ship it separately.

I would not trust shipping one at this point. That being said, at least one is in Australia. A member here has it.

Unfortunately it will be 575's  only for me in the forseeable future... Unless I take a trip to the states. lol

The man's got some taste

Nope not a special version, you just need the correct system enabler installed, which for a 520 is System Enabler 403. You need to make a boot floppy with a blessed system folder c…

I'll be back. I just have to... go and do... a thing. Over here. yes...

I recently got a Macintosh LC 520.  It has System 7.1 installed but it contains a whole bunch of old garbage & extensions so I wanted to do a fresh install.  However when I…

When I was doing it I found a tutorial online on how to do it and where to apply the lube.  I can't remember the address but if you google it you may be able to find it.

Well, I tore open the external floppy disk tonight and got the mechanism unstuck by using small dabs of WD-40.  I have to hold the eject button open to insert/eject disks, but at l…
