It's not mine; it's one on eBay. What does that mean if anything? My memory is it 'chimes' or beeps once and then the cursor (or apple-pong thing) going back an…
Just finished a recap on the other Mac IIsi I have. Almost there but not quite. Power supply turned on and clicked for a while. Eventually the PSU got it little…

So what I thought was a junker 512k might be a prototype. I started to strip it for parts, but I noticed some weird things. For starters, both the bucket and th…

Well, Here I am. Up to no good again. Can you see what I am doing so far?
There was a lot advertised on newton talk today. Someone had been looking for a battery case. He may have one. But it looks like he only wants to sell the lot.
