I read about the TAM over on MacTalk...very cool! Good score on the 7600 too, apart from the 80MB HDD, it sounds like a nice machine, especially for free.

Happy mac tee — #2

Is it possible to ship to Australia? I like the nice, simple design but 15 Euro is a little much for a plain silkscreened t-shirt in my opinion. Is the shirt/printing of a particu…

From memory the 750/750AV fixed a lot of the problems with the 1710/1710AV, and had an updated CRT with a slightly better dot pitch.
