Just got one yesterday for free! Drove 45 minutes to get it. I got 6 boxes of disks with it, a bunch of software, 2 drives, and all the manuals with it. Actually, got 3 copies o…

Any of us here into the case modding scene? I have a Macintosh SE FDHD here that shouldn't be too hard to get working again, looks like the HD is blown but that's all. The case ext…
This time I'm gonna binhex them on my classic Mac before archiving. I'll set them up on an FTP. Since they're all abandonware, it should be perfectly legal for you all to snag co…

Oh man, dunno. I have a Color Classic that I did my 640x480 mod on, I could stick my other upgrade card in there. I'm at work so my mind is racing over possibilities when I get h…
