How big's your backyard? Might be time to invest in a shed, or a shipping container

The 2 black ones in the back (visible) and the 2 silver ones deep in the handle are all you need to split the case open. Click to expand... I know. Is there any easy way to ge…

Very nice. Best of luck with the parents!

A Plus An SE 2x IIcx's A 7100 An 8100 A Dot Matrix Printer A whole bunch of SCSI gear Means I'll definitely have to have a clean out, and if I double up on either of the Pow…

Things to watch out for: 1) External drive must supply termination power (the power supply in the Plus is too feeble to do the job, so the design team decided that the external bo…

How do I take my SE apart? I know where the screws are, and I have the right bit, but I can't get to the bottom screws. Is there any common tool that I can use to open it? Thank…

Wow! 8-o I wish I was the seller. :lol:

I was loading Tiger onto an eMac. I booted off the external drive and opened Disk Utility and noticed the internal hard drive was red, and SMART status reported it was failing. I …

If you are running 128k without swapping a stack of 400k floppies you aren't living the dream!

Except that the network challenged Macs are also often SCSI challenged.

It looks good....but it'd be virtually impossible to get it to work on a Mac, unless you created a specialised version. As for prices..... The FDD Emulators go from approxim…

Anybody have any experience with these FDD emulators? Seems like the ideal solution for vintage, networked challenged compact Macs. Manage your disk images on OS X, copy them to a …

My Seele being thus comforted, I shall no longer be tempted to sell the thing.

Here's the damage (sorry about the blurry shot)... [edit: okay, I'm apparently having issues linking to flickr...stay tuned here's the link for now: http://www.flickr.com/photos/…

I might be able to provide a donor Wallstreet, if you're interested. I'm not sure what I have on hand, but I have more than one in various states of nonfunctionality and it would b…

Gott im Himmel! It's not worth real money, is it? And mine looks almost new. Click to expand... That seller's pricing policy has attracted comment before. In the new-look comm…

That's a shame - was the plastic around the hinge damaged too? Hopefully you can find a donor WSII/PDQ and transplant a new hinge on. Must have been a hefty fall - these machines…

Wallstreets have a bad hinge design, many died years ago from broken hinges that took out the video cable, and many these days have atleast one bad hinge that keeps the display fro…

After months of lusting for one, I finally got my mitts on the last of the ADB PowerBooks. It's the 300MHz model and the lot came with plenty of extras: DVD drive w/card, Wireless …

The II and IIfx do need a working battery. In these old machines, the battery actually closes a relay in the power supply to turn 'em on. A Kensington or other fan will do a lot t…

Does it work with standard HFS or do I need a dedicated "Plus" scsi drive formatted differently? Click to expand... Depends on the drive and the utility that was used to format…
