As long as we're talking TAMs, if anyone has the pen/pencil set from the TAM that they want to sell, let me know. I think that's the one piece I'm missing from the "set".

The guy with all the parts in The Netherlands is on this site: http://www.xs4trade.net/index.php?cPath=1_5_22. I refurbished 2 TAM's in my time. I've got a lot of software and manu…

PM me if you find one.

But I don't care about the keyboard layout, I only care about the spelling!

CS is passive, the C is active.

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…

What kind of speeds are you getting when copying files from/to the SATA drive? Even if I copy a file from one location to another on the same SSD drive, I get like 2-3MB/sec. I tho…

Damn! Sorry to hear that. As technight said there is a reason. I am just surprised the fuse did not simply blow again.

In my opinion, the Power supply is a modified 6500 unit. I was given a Powermac 6500 and only kept the Logic board, wiring and PSU because they all were close to the TAM's one. I…

The 575 was always the pick of the crop for me... Has the nice Sony screen still but has the '040 in it so still quite usable. As a series though, the 5xx are still probably among …

I still would like to get one of these. I have the TV and I finally found an LC580 but the screen just isn't the same on the 580.

I like the case a lot.

Nice! I know some dont care for these. But one of em it near the top of my list.

Just added this to my collection Macintosh LC 520     The 68030 is too slow to play Doom but it does run Master of Orion well enough.    

You try another known good working drive? I would hope so.  Otherwise, did you check the DMA lines that bounce between the SCSI IC, GLU, and VIA?

I checked all traces going to/coming from the SCSI IC, they are fine.

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. 

Time to check traces between the SCSI IC and the SCSI header. They break at the IC. 

Well, Usually when a fuse blows. 90% of the time that doesnt mean stick a new one in it and try again. they blow for a reason. Well, now you found out the hard way. Think twice! …

The voltages above were the ones coming from the pwr supply. With the RAM they are -5V (6), -11.77V (7), +5.04V (12,13), +12.71V (14) Molex are 12.33V and 5.05V RAM was maybe ju…
