Never heard of that, but it doesn't seem beyond the realm of possibility. I've seen reference here and there to different internal HD projects at Apple that all eventually fizzeled out after Widget/Profile.

Carrier board is fine :)

Will be watching to see when the SCA variant(s) are avaiable!

Very likely a bad power supply block. Not hard to replace. It's the same part as used in HP Laserjets of the period. My old notes say these are the suitable part numbers. Of course, you can recap/repair the one you have. RG9-0205 RG9-0319 HP SX-ACPM-B

Funny, mine did not have ears, either. I have a bunch of various in a box somewhere. If I find some that work and can send a set along, I will.

Oh - not so sure about that :)

A little thread necro, but look at what I found in the teardown pile at Free Geek Twin Cities! Fastpath 5R - basically two FP5 boards in a rackmount case. I never thought I'd see one in the wild. Bummer is that it has only the 10Base-2 modules. Would love to find/trade for either the AUI...

If you have spares, I'd happily pay for a couple plus shipping to me. If not, I'll just go ahead and order up the stuff and make my own.

Congrats!

Free Geek Twin Cities recently got a donation of a Franklin Ace 2200, but unfortunately without they keyboard. I thought I would ask here in case anyone might have a spare or know of some other solutions to at least see what the functionality is of this guy. I see some older posts on VCF.org...

Yes - CubeOwner was awesome

Run picky software on picky hardware? What could go wrong? :)

NIce! Thanks for the hard work! Sparc will be fun :)

Oh good! I have one of these and many of the pieces, but haven't taken the time to figure it all out. This will be both a guide and a spur to action!

Bringing this thread back - the whole internal Outbound connection card/cable/etc. for the Mac Plus showed up on eBay. $1700...

Good to know! I'm OK for now, but will hit you up if I ever fall down this hole again!

They look cool - I remember them from back in the day. I seem to remember that yes, they were almost IBM compatible :)

Glad it found the right home!

Oh yes - done and done! :) I had thought I removed the battery from my ANS, but a new logic board/CPU/RAID card later were the price for not checking! Was able to source the logic board and CPU as Apple parts, but had to get a generic Mylex RAID card and move over the Apple specific ROM from...

Nice! Be aware that with the battery out (which is a good idea, ask me how I know) the NVRAM may not hold the boot device string. Make a note of it if you can. For example, with my ANS with RAID card, the boot command is boot pci1/dac960/sd@8:aix You can set this in NVRAM with the setenv...
