I know it wouldn't be authentic but, unlike the keyboard (which would need key caps), the Apple teardrop ADB mouse comes apart and paints up real easy with black for-plastic paint.…

I have a spare black mouse. I dont need it, but not sure if I could part with it on the cheap.

Bought mine from someone who had imported one from the US. So that's at least two in Australia!

Love the Mac TV, nice one. I have a spare black mouse, but I'm in Australia... Also, there are at least two of us here in Australia that have imported a Mac TV now but not sur…

I'm very much a fan of the 5400 and even moreso the 5500... There was a lot of machine in them for the money, with a decent video controller as well, and they were actually decentl…

^----  i agree the 5400 is a good machine, its like they finally did it right.

I love the 5400s.

According to Mactracker, the 5400 needs 70ns dimms, and the 5500 needs EDO.  That may be the source of the confusion. Or maybe the overlap in speeds: Mactracker says the 5400 goes …

I would assume that if you put faster RAM in, it will just run at the slower speed if that is all the machine can handle.  But when I used to service PCs, there were always some ma…

I think that with RAM speeds, unless you go too fast, you can go faster (but not slower) than the recommended. In fact, it'll make your system faster. Go ahead with 60ns 168-pin DI…

So I'm trying to clear up some confusion. According to Low End Mac, EveryMac, and just about every other site I can find, this machine needs 70ns 168-pin DIMMs. However, every we…

You could use transparent filament, then run an extra LED from the HDD to the floppy cover.

Kensington made the Turbo Mouse from 1986 for the original Macs and for the Apple II (presumably with mouse card). Features include two buttons for left and right handed use, and a…

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…

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.
