Before I knew it, my hands, my SyQuest, my CD-ROM drive, my pristine Extended II keyboard, the SE itself, and the ADB mouse II all had the tar on them. Click to expand... …

So without a fan I would be concerned about damaging components in the PSU due to excessive trapped heat....Apple included a fan with the SE to try and avoid any reoccurrence of th…

The PDP-7 was an 18-bit machine. Click to expand... No, it was 16bit but could address 256Mb of memory with 18 address lines. A 6502 has 16 address lines but that doesn't make …

Wow, I had no idea that the box would be in that nice of a condition. 8-o

The PDP-7 was an 18-bit machine. Has a "real Unix" ever been developed for any 8- or 16-bit machine? Doesn't seem a big stretch to run in 16 bits. Click to expand... The orig…

As of this morning, $99 in plastic money is $82.28 in paper money.

The SCSI ID Jumper settings were actually on a sticker on the drive… [] ]'>

P.S.: please be so kind to share your results for the Q630 here.

Check with Mike Richardson on this board. I believe his outfit offers a capacitor replacement service and it might be more affordable than the Ebay company you found.

That's a nice looking job 4seasonphoto. Thank you for posting it. The ChipQuik is a bit of overkill for capacitors, but it will make them easier to remove using just one solderin…

Are you saying that it could be risky to put jumpers on random pins hoping it will change the SCSI ID to what you want?

$99 :O 8-o > :-/ Click to expand... How much is that in REAL money? jt [)] ]'>

It's a shame you are not local, otherwise I would have bought it from you. A 160+ mile trip is a bit too far for an SE, seeing as I already have one as well. Good luck with the sa…

The components in the SE's PSU are placed very close together, most of the capacitors touching. I would think this makes it more difficult for air to travel through the unit. Anoth…

I've got a lot of the RadiusWare diskettes and manuals, some for monitors as I was looking for all the docs I could find for the Radius FPD that I never got. But most info/software…

Well part of the problem is the enclosed PSU. So the extra airflow is really needed, IMO, to help cool the enclosed PSU. Click to expand... This is an interesting quandary. Fi…

Good luck!

I'm going to my grandma's house tomorow, so i'm hoping that the Preforma 630CD i stuck in her attic when i was ~6 years old is still there! *crosses fingers*

Love the wood paneling Click to expand... I agree. I love wood paneling, gives the room a nice warm feeling. I hate drywall, makes the room seem so cold and impersonal.

I use Apple IP Gateway (available from preterhuman.net) Click to expand... So how do you get "Apple IP Gateway" from preterhuman.net without using the Hotline/KDX clients?

I could be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure these are not available online. Although I don't actually need these manuals, it would be nice to look through them, and to keep them for a…

Well part of the problem is the enclosed PSU. Before the SE, the PSU was exposed on the analog board. But with the SE, Apple used a Sony PSU unit which has its own case and PCB, se…

For your information, I have now put the SE on ebay: ebay.co.uk item number 110426302841 the full reference being http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1…
