Somehow I'm pretty sure I managed to score a working LC575 motherboard with an ethernet card onboard, and it is supposed to arrive in the mail later this week! It has been a dream …

I did it for a IIe a number of years ago. I mounted the drive under the IIe keyboard and made up a custom cable. Instead of mounting the SCSI cards DB25 on the back I ran it inside…

I like them both, personally. As for the "Teardrop" mice (Apple Desktop Bus Mouse II), I find that the older ones have a better click to them...probably because the newer ones have…

I have a II GS with an Apple SCSI card hook to an external HD and ZIP drive. For the moment I have to disconnect the ZIP because it is somehow interfering with the HD, don't know w…

Hi, I have a II GS with an Apple SCSI card hook to an external HD and ZIP drive. For the moment I have to disconnect the ZIP because it is somehow interfering with the HD, don't k…

the thing i dislike the most about goodwill in our area is that they dominate the thrift / second hand store market, theres like 1 junk shop in my town that almost sells computer s…

Man I wish our goodwill doesnt suck, I asked one day where the computers were, they said downtown, so I called downtown and "the public is not allowed into that area" bogus Clic…

I hated those mice, so uncomfortable. Give me a tear drop mouse any day of the week. Click to expand... My opinion on that is of the complete opposite - the feel of the button …

Good work. Must feel nice to use it.

Good to see another LC back up and going. The case looks to be in very good condition.

Nice work. Looks good on your desk. I hated those mice, so uncomfortable. Give me a tear drop mouse any day of the week.

That Y-cable is either for the LC IIe card (probably so, since it's on the drive) or it's a Power Mac 6100 DOS cable. Click to expand... Yeah, I think you hit the nail on the h…

This one should have been relatively easy. I have to admit though, it took a few hours to make it work properly. I liberated this machine ages ago in a non-working state, but only …

First, I snagged an "Apple 3.5 Drive" in very good (physical) condition. I believe this is one of the drives that could be used with either an Apple IIGS or an early Macintosh - i…

"the public is not allowed into that area" Click to expand... Perfect opportunity to become a criminal, and it's for a good cause too.

While I was out running errands today, I stopped into a Goodwill store that I don't usually visit (it's all the way across town from my usual routine), but this visit paid off with…

Alright, I'm sure that I can use the caddy in a IIcx now. Thanks everybody!

Olde-mac-milt usually carries HDD cradles for the IIci/IIcx/Q700, which he groups together. I have one of each of those Macs, and can verify that they use a common (with minor var…

The IIci and IIcx do use the same kind of mount, 700 should also since it is in a IIcx type of case.

Alright, thanks. I really want to secure the hard drive so I can run the Macintosh IIcx sideways without worries.

Probably so. They're not needed, in any case, unless you just like having the hard drive secured.

Could a Quadra 700 hard disk caddy be used in a Macintosh IIcx? I have my eyes set on a Macintosh IIcx on eBay which is missing the hard drive and the caddy, and I have a Quadra 70…

Alright, thanks! I doubted it, but I was just curious.

Nope. Most likely given it is labeled "SuperDrive" it was merely a computer Apple used internally, probably on a secretary's desk. The SE FDHD came first and except for the label c…
