Given the state of the plastics on the 5200/5400 (and others) we're all going to need something like this eventually. Yours has a nice Fisher-Price/Play-Doh sort of color scheme going for it

I purchased this a little while ago and quite enjoyed it. Can recommend. Thanks David!

BTW, one of our members here is selling a few keyboards at a price you'll certainly not see on Ebay. If I thought I might need a keyboard in the near future, I'd jump all over it.

Your 630 has 4mb soldered in, with a simm socket that will accept up to a 32mb simm, so yes, you're maxed out. The 630 came in a CD configuration which used an internal SCSI connection, so that's an option; also there's an external SCSI connection, so bluescsi or zuluscsi or any of the others...

These guys have a wide range of adapters for iPod flash storage. At a quick glance, the oldest models I saw were 3rd gen, but maybe they have something for 2nd gen. Given the scarcity of click wheel iPods, maybe it would be worthwhile to install an OS X partition to support somewhat later...

My Portable is unlikely to ever be... ported; it's mostly for display and occasionally to mess around with. So I don't want to have to maintain batteries, even relatively long-lasting and low-maintenance ones. I guess there's a lid for every pot.

I expect it should be fine; the voltage is the critical bit here, right? My (very limited) understanding is that voltage is how hard it can squirt the power, ah (amp hours) is the capacity of the container. But I could certainly be tragically wrong. In the interest of providing alternatives...

All this was a lot easier back in the day when we all just exchanged floppy disks and lots of folks had lots of various macs that could readily talk to the Plus. All of that is different now; newer systems just don't exchange information the same way, and even the basic assumptions of how a...

One of the tricky bits to watch out for is if you're booting a Plus from a Zip disk with version 4.2 of the boot driver on it, but then stick that disk into your G3 (or whatever) which has a later version of the driver loaded, it will automatically over-write the 4.2 driver on the disk with...

So, not SimStapler. https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/simstapler

Or YOU create an STL and release it

I understand Amiga of Rochester at least in the past has done that sort of work for people. https://amigaofrochester.com/

Could be that trying to connect to the VPN which is no longer valid is causing the hang, and also preventing a normal internet connection. I'd reset all the network configuration and find whether there's an app or extension for the VPN and disable it. I've never dealt with a VPN and don't have...

Trying and failing to connect to a network service can seem to take forever before it times out. Maybe something like that is going on

Coincidentally, in the last week I've watched like three or four different videos of people working with old machines with Miniscribe drives. In every instance, one or more heads were stuck to the platter. Attempts to fix resulted in the head torn off. Not saying this will happen to you, but...

Funny, I just ran across a TokaMac Iici accelerator and have been trying to find the software for it, if there even was any. I saw you had cloned the TokaMac LC. Have you ever come across anything helpful for the Tokamak Iici?

You can also look at the Quadra or Centris 610 or 660av. Nice pizza box like the 6100 but with a 68040, and does not need the fancy video adapter the 6100 series needs. They use SCSI hard drives that can be readily replaced with a Blue SCSI or Zulu SCSI adapter for not a ton of money. I...

Back in the day, someone sold a package of Turbo Mouse compatible balls that had different colors and different weights ranging both lighter and heavier than the OEM ball. I liked the heavier ball. I'm happy to know that a standard billiard ball will fit.

This came up about a month ago: https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/imagewriter-ribbon-cartridge-problems.45840/ TLDR: NOS is a crapshoot; you may get one that's just fine but there are others that are disintegrating. Links were provided for some New New Stock which work just fine.
