Um... the LC III cant run OS 8... can it?

avoid goop off, I melted a gameboy with that stuff

Try Goo Be Gone or some other glue remover. Adhesive will keep any whitening chemical from hitting the plastic.

My old Mac SE, which I just finished de-yellowing, has a sticker stain. The sticker itself was from an aftermarket computer upgrades store, and the majority of it was transparent. …

Yeah, 7.6 isn't THAT different from 7.5.5.

About the OS, if you're going to use the newest OS it can run, get a copy of 8.1. No, wait, NetBSD . You would be SERIOUSLY wasting your time with 7.6, 7.5.5/7.1 is the way to …

TransMac will work too.

I've used RetroBrite, with fantastic results.

Yeah, otherwise known as Retr0bright. I haven't used it myself but IIRC some members here have had success with it.

I've heard of using a mix of Oxy Clean and hydrogen peroxide to remove yellowing. Not sure of the specifics but it may be worth googling/binging/yahooing etc.

Most Macs could not handle 8MB 30-pin SIMMs. The path for most, with a few notable exceptions, was 256kB, 1MB, 4MB, 16MB. That is, fourfold increments. Some left off one end or …

I assume they would have, as they made 16MB 30 pin SIMMs.

I have about 6 ADB keyboards and Mice. I get them for free a lot of the time. If you need them they can easily be found on freecycle, at least in my area.

Did they even make 8MB 30pin SIMM's? That would have been an ungodly amount per stick back in the day. Not too mention very expensive. I once paid $300 for a 4MB stick.

I have what I need or I would have bid on it.

I actually got sniped on that lot the last time it was up. xD

People have been looking for these off and on: ebay #160354370085 look like 512k ones. Cheap.

Sorry about that. :-x On .img files, you can use the Floppy Image program here.

That looks fantastic, I'll give it a whirl tomorrow. thanks!

The trouble with that though is that I've already got a metric crapload of 8MB 72 pin SIMMs that I'll never use, and that I can't see of being much value to anyone else, either. N…

Dang, really sorry about that. D: Good thing they're not hard to find at all.

I got them today...they have 4 NEC 4218160-60 chips on them each. From what I can gather, I think they're 8 MB SIMMs. Great. I seem to be like a magnet for these things, it seems. …

I had to turn 32 bit on for it to use the CD drive. It's working now.

maybe http://www.chrysocome.net/rawwrite I use this to back up the OS disks on our digital pianos, which are not dos / windows formatted and it works fine for those

You can easily purchase an USB floppy drive (extremely cheap) and make the floppies on OS X to make it easier. Click to expand... I could, but is it that much harder?
