you'd need to hack the 1400 somehow so it wouldn't try to charge them Click to expand... Click to expand... Wouldn't a few diodes do?

Sounds like quite the demo indeed! Keep your eye open for swap meets, Craigslist, and second-hand shops. I just bought a //e with disk drives for $20 from Goodwill. Click…

I will give you my advise from my experience. My first Mac was a 128k purchased in January 1984. I upgraded and continued using that box until I purchased a Mac IIvx in 1993. I …

It could be a bad ADB connector. I had these on both sides of the IIgs keyboard I used with my SE/30. I resoldered the pads but still had problems. I then replaced the cable but…

I'm quite glad I listened to my inner voice that said not to use the magic eraser on the Mac. I never realized they were such a powerful tool. The spongelike appearance is deceptiv…

I've noticed recently that whenever my Classic II accesses its HD the screen wobbles. As soon as the HD access stops the screen stabilizes. I have never seen anything like this bef…

Mine seemed awful hot too, so I added a fan at the top of the case blowing air out the handle holes. The fan doesn't fit flush, so the sides of the fan are sealed to the case with …

A bit of a switch, using the MIDI card as a serial interface. It was common to use a Super Serial card or a //c serial port as a MIDI interface by doing timing in software. I remem…

PCI. It's the last desktop machine released before the G3s.

I don't believe you can daisy chain floppy drives on the Mac. Like the eject button, the daisy chain port was included for the Apple II line. At one point Apple wanted a universal …

Lessay you are daisychaining floppy drives to the floppy port on your IIci. What is the maximum amount of drives you could possible daisychain?

I really want one of these. The best place to look is probably ebay Germany and hope the seller understands English and is willing to ship it to you. Most of the less well known cl…

Yeah... I guess I didn't quite think about it like that. I was just surprised to see a Mac motherboard in such a device. The agreement between Apple and Acuson - according to the a…

I had never heard of Apple entering into agreements with companies to basically sell rebranded Apple hardware. Click to expand... Avid? Protools? Freestyle? Axiotronic Mod…

this company bought a Q650 for a few thousand, installed some specialty software on it then turned around and charged $600,000 for it. Click to expand... Piffle. Aegis i…

I have long advised against formatting 1.4MB disks as 800K. I read they were unreliable in just about every book on Macs and wanted to see for myself. Way back in 1995, I covered …

Yeah, the contents of the HD should be pretty interesting. I don't know why I've never taken the time to tear into the machine. It has a few cards in it... I'll have to take a clos…

Congrats! New 800k floppies are hard to come by these days. Click to expand... Yeah, and trying to format HD floppies as lower density floppies is almost always unreliable at b…
