Yes I fixed mine with lube, just don't over do it

Sounds like a good candidate for recycling heavily damaged/busted up case plastics using olde school techniques: Cut texture matched flat panel section of case to fit SE's floppy …

Man, I never really knew I needed this until now. Would be cool to have one to cover the floppy slot actually.

You have a 3D printer? Nice. I don't know of a 3D model of the drive cover, but if someone has an SE drive cover and a 3D scanner, they could scan it in.

I have never built one, but the idea of making one (and getting some soldering skills in the process) for less than US$50k or whatever a totally beat-up Apple I usually goes for. (…

I agree with Macdrone. Apple Utility HD will format the drive if it is working. That is a Big if. What kind of noises is the drive making? Anything other a constant high pitched w…

Well you can try Apple HD utility on a system 7 floppy.  But I am gonna jump out on a limb and say the hard drive inside is stuck or dead unless you know it was erased.

Also, you can use the patched Apple SC HD Setup to format ZIP disks, and the OS will treat it like a regular hard disk. The only disadvantage of this is that ejecting is now a two …

If you plan on using a ZIP drive you will need the Iomega 4.2 driver in order for it to boot the Plus. That also brings up some questions about formatting with third party utilitie…

Aren't you a monkey?

Seems cool to me. I wasn't trying to make a monkey out of you.

Well the reason I wont settle for an emu for developing software is primarily a reason I didnt want to mention, but as ur painting me in a shade of grey, I will mention i would lik…

This thread is fully of weirdness.

give it to me for the postage Click to expand... We can all find inspiration in this man's ballsiness.

The postage cost paid by me of course..

give it to me for the postage (shipping) and i will port lwip to it. Failing that, sent it to my frined in North Carolina so we can set up a terminal dial in type of arragenment s…

The Portable was not finally included in the lot. But there was a lot in the lot, anyway, if you know what I mean.

Does the portable even work?

As for the Daystar Diskrunner, I know next to nothing about it. Click to expand... Same here, but I do seem to recall someone else here extolling their virtues. I'll see if I …

I am a jealous, jealous man right now. Any unwanted goodies among the haul of audio gear?

Another thing is the heat as well...not such a problem in Winter, but in the middle of Summer it gets bloody hot in a car boot...my Dad leaves his work laptop in the boot of his ca…

A better idea is to start collecting old paper currency then when you get flung back in time exchange it for gold coin. Click to expand... But you never know when you'll be une…

Speaking of stock, how about if you had bought Apple in late 2002-early 2003 when it was $14 per share? Not only has it gone up big time since then (well over $200 now), it also sp…

thats just people, were stupid! if I had my pick id go with woz or balmer, they are both a hoot, leaning towards woz but becuase I am a big electronics nut

Yeah, if you can stand having an asshole for a best friend. I honestly don't see how a nice guy like Woz was ever able to tolerate a jerk like Jobs.
