Duo 280c keyboard problem — #3

Could be oxidation on the ribbon cable where it connects to the mobo. Unlatch the connector and wiggle the cable, then latch it again. Good luck. Yeh, the Duos are heavy as iBooks,…

Strange board on Mac 512k — #5

That's a most peculiar board. There are RAM chips it looks like, and it takes power from the MB power connector. Could it be a video card designed to drive a standard 9-pin CGA mon…

Icons for old machines in Specs pages — #13
