Well, that's got me thinking of what I might get up to one cold winter night next year....

I do, however, have a Mac II -> IIfx upgraded machine, so it is a IIfx in all but badge (and power supply, it seems), but as I have only 8MB of RAM in it, I have decided to …

I kind of like OS 7.1 best on a IIfx with 32MB of RAM, the lesser Mac II's can run OS 6.

Great story and the IIfx sounds a well-loved machine. I have a couple of 8600 604ev PowerMacs (at 300MHz) also, and think they are fabulous machines. I do, however, have a Mac II …

Why not just switch the key caps? Presumably you don't have to look at them if you're touch typing...

The IIgs keyboard and all IIe (not just enhanced) keyboards also have the bumps on D & K. IIe IIgs

I remember discussing this exact subject with a fellow Mac user back in seventh grade when ADB keyboards were in the process of being phased out. Apple's ADB keyboards had the bump…

Seconded on the carry case, and I wouldn't mind having a set of manuals either.

I did some image-flippin' after I snagged the SE/30 MoBo piccie, threw it onto HP_Mini's upstairs 32" LCD "Monitor" to examine the Keying on the /30's PDS Connector as compared t…

Very cool, 4SP! I need to fire mine up just to see if it still works. :?: Any o'youse gots just the Case, an extra DOA Luggable, or a Numeric Keypad to downsize your collection…

Cool! I don't remember if mine ever worked or if I ever even cracked the case. It was a freebie from the Salvation Army Thrift Shop near my Sign Shop. If the SE/30 has a "standard"…

A great site I found somwhere around here: http://macgui.com/downloads/?cat_id=56

1. Try a different SIMM. The one you tried may be bad. 2. The LC 550 only supports 32 MB SIMMs. There could be something in the way the 64 MB SIMM was constructed that makes it …

I know the font, and have one of the free clones. I just have no design talent whatsoever for trying to recreate the image.

Upgrading the power supply by replacing the appropriate components should be possible. One would just have to double and triple check that their entire design is correct, even bein…

Google "Macintosh Garden" and "Grenier du Mac".

I found in ebay a sonnet nubus g4 at 360mhz. Is it faster that sonnet crescendo g3 at 500mhz? I saw that you can install it in performa 6116.

+ 20" Apple ColourSync display, methinks (+ software, etc, etc) Oh one more thing: a legit CD of OS 9.1 - a first for me! JB

Thanks! I lucked out a few years ago and got it for $25 from Mac Shack in Boulder and did a full restoration on it except for the space bar, which I will probably RetroBrite at som…

All links seem to be dead now :-( i love those games such a great collection. Damn

I just want to say, I think that Portable looks mint! :O

I guess it was too much to hope that the voltage regulator could be replaced with an off-the-shelf 3-pin 5V or 12V regulator... My 5125 will probably need another battery rebuild …

H3NRY, I'm using a 7.5V supply at 2A. Would that be sufficient, or should I go for a 3A one instead?

What's the average lifespan of an SE/30 Analog Board after it's been put under that kinda load, BTW? Click to expand... Since the SE/30 has a PSU separate from the Analog Board…

Course, the SE/30 was never designed to take a Nubus card. Presumably this also means any back panel connector soldered directly to a (Nubus or IIsi-only PDS) card will end up buri…
