You could return it to the bin, after appropriate rendition of "The Last Post". Does it have an external SCSI connector, and do you have an external SCSI CD-ROM and appropriate co…

I know this PB wont run X, But at the moment it's running mac os 9.2 Cad French I am trying to find the owner of the computer as i found it in a recyling bin in my town, the com…

I gave up trying to figure out why, but it appears to be related to the lack of hardware handshaking in the SCSI implementation uniquely used by the Plus. Click to expand... In…

Yeah I am thinking that when we move, I will have a super modern white table with shelves and setup the mice and keyboards so that people can use them. Currently my macs are either…

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…

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.

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…

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.

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…

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…

I was going to mention the Plus's lack of internal termination, but LCGuy beat me to it. Try to use a short SCSI cable to the first external device and made sure that the device n…

If you're going to use the hard drive with the Plus exclusively, you're best to format it with an interleave of 3:1, which you can do in Hard Disk Toolkit, or I'd imagine most 3rd …

The donor has found the keyboard, which I can collect tomorrow. There is ein Gott im Himmel, evidently.
