Is it a conquest...?

Is it a conquest if you uncover something in your own storage space?

I have a workshop in my garage that's been home to my Apple/Mac accumulation for over 10 years. I'm moving later this summer, so I've started to go thru things and am rediscovering some cool stuff.

The first is an Apple technical service manual from 1985. It covers the Apple II series and the original Mac.

The second is a hard flight case for a compact Mac.

Was conquered at some stage or another so why the hell not?

I agree with Benson, I'd love to have a case like that for permanent mac storage.

Yes - that case is cool!

Yeah, I'm thinking I'll use it for storage of one of my Pluses.

I have another stored in the original box.

Before all of that is the Apple Answer Book QA. It has a beige cover, blue text with white knock outs. Content is Apple II and III. It's a three punch hole publication. The Apple Answer notes that I own mostly date to 1984.

My Apple Service Tech Procedures (072-0228) is a later volume (April 1989), with Mac content. It is another three punch hole publication with a blue/white cover. Volume 2 is similar and records later Macs.

I also have the "Apple Preferred Components" book, circa 1990. It outlines electronic components to be used in Apple products.

Not that I solder particularly well...
