    SE/30 8/159 - $100 on eBay

    Ah, got it. I don't have any test equipment, though, so no buzzing here. But thanks for your response.

    SE/30 8/159 - $100 on eBay

    Themk, I'm not sure what you mean by "buzzing," but thanks for offering. I'm not too serious about making my card work, though. It was a long shot that someone would have the granddaughter card as a spare, but I thought I'd ask. I messaged olePigeon a while back about some SE/30 Ethernet...

    SE/30 8/159 - $100 on eBay

    Getting back to the original topic of this thread (ahem)...   ;D I finally acquired "the tool" so I could open the case and take it apart: And what do I find? A Daynaport E/SI30 Ethernet card! ... But no breakout card with the ports. Argh!   So close, yet so far. Perhaps a kind soul on...

    SE/30 8/159 - $100 on eBay

    For the overall condition of the unit, I do think I got a good deal. Compare with: http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-APPLE-MACINTOSH-SE-30-COMPUTER-M5119-WORKS-/292095695658 I wouldn't pay $230 + $110 shipping, yet 15 people are watching that one and none tracked mine despite being essentially...

    SE/30 8/159 - $100 on eBay

    I picked up this one over the weekend: http://www.ebay.com/itm/222486106965 It just arrived today, and it's as advertised: nice bright screen, clear sound, very few blemishes with mild yellowing, booted right up. The only drawback I found is apparently the floppy drive was replaced at some...
