Goodbye, I guess. To be honest, I'm not a fan of the goodbye threads...Seems really attention-whoreish, in my opinion. I'm probably the only one that feels this way, though. Cli…

Shred, were your tapes NTSC or PAL? If Apple shipped PAL tapes to Australia (the prudent choice), then I have no business bidding on this. I really don't want to dig up the old P…

... how do I get termination power from the drive itself? One of my newer SCSI drives (9GB) has such an option, but not on the IBM 80MB drive. Click to expand... The HBC (the …

Farewell.

You're not.

Goodbye, I guess. To be honest, I'm not a fan of the goodbye threads...Seems really attention-whoreish, in my opinion. I'm probably the only one that feels this way, though.

Congratulations! http://lowendmac.com/oldmac/compact2.html and http://www.preterhuman.net/texts/computing/Apple_Service_PDF/68k_Macintosh/macintosh_se.pdf will be useful for t…

You were nice and always brought a sense of humore here. We'll miss you! And I wholeheartedly agree with your advice. After I buy a PowerComputing clone and a Macintosh IIci wi…

WOW!!! Nice! I love when people get those deals like that.

What a score! :O The machine sounds like a beauty, I hope she serves you well!

Hi, Sent you an email. What is really interesting is that there are other disks still out there. A quick type in Apple Disk brought back over 15K of results. Only a small percenta…

I just had to share. I've had a string of bad luck with a 2400c I had so I bought a cheapo "parts machine" off of eBay awhile back and thought it'd be good to change out the boards…

I was like that before I got married. Between work and home life I don't really have time to go around and collect computers anymore. At one time I had about 20 compact Macs in m…

CORRECTION The screwdriver was a 150x3mm flat blade (200m length would have been better but I couldn't find one)

I have to agree. The PowerBook 140/160/170/180 was a nice piece of industrial design. The way that the battery door acts to lock the case halves together makes it impossible to d…

I remember throwing a heap of those self-paced training videos out about 10 years ago. I still have the certificates for successfully completing the "self-track" courses. (You to…

Success - I’ve managed to open her up without using a torx screwdriver! A 50x3 mm flat blade does the job nicely. Special thanks go to http://home24.inet.tele.dk/ccadams/se/torx.…

It's just happened again. I can confirm the system is 100% unresponsive when it happens. It doesn't respond to ping, there's no sound and an external display doesn't do a thing. Wh…

What does SCSI-probe say? Click to expand... Tried SCSI probe, but it looks as if the drive isn't connected at all. Drives generally have a variety of jumper-controlled …

Check the power connector for cracks in the solder to the pcboard. Check the voltage at the drive under load if possible or atleast check to see if there is a voltage dip when runn…

You burned out fast didn't you (joined at the end of 2008 not even a year).

The capacity of the drives do not really equate to power consumption. Personally I would connect them to a known good computer/enclosure and test them like that as well as check t…

Dear 68kMLA Community, My times on this forum have been wonderful. I have enjoyed learning about the vintage Macintoshes from all of you, and I would not be in this position with …

What are the GB sizes of the drives in the order that you replaced them? It is possible that there isn't enough electrical power to run the drives or there is a problem with the p…

Great, thanks for the responses. I will open up the SE tomorrow and attempt the transplant. I expected that I'd need the SCSI cable from the Classic II, so I've held onto that an…
