Something has to be said about the Wallstreet's line of devices, at least the second iteration. I scored a nice one for next to nothing last year and have given it only recently love and attention. The screen is still phenomenal. I've hardly ever enjoyed a screen so much as with this model...

How a little retro mood can get someone into liberating again :D Found a Wallstreet hyped with the following specs: 13.3 inch screen & 300 Mhz G3. Low-end-Mac DOESN'T list a Wallstreet with this configuration. Does it exist? Either it's a 14.1" Wallstreet II with 300 Mhz, or in fact if...

So, got a bit into a retro mood this past weekend and decided to use my 1400er with Word '98 to type an endless paper for school. So far, so good. Neither Word nor OS 8.6 has let me down for the whole 17 hours marathon on Sunday (talk about deadlines and procrastination) ;) Any objections...

From tinkering with my older Macs I got pretty used to doing things the classic Mac way. Naturally, I decided to install OS 9.2.2 on a newly acquired 466 iBook clamshell. It got full RAM (576 MB). While I love the consistency of OS 9 with the older system software, I am slightly irritated with...

I'm wondering how popular the LC III was (or not)? Reason, I don't encounter hardly any of them where I look. Even on ebay they seem scarce. I figured, I want one of those since they fit neatly on the desk I use for my PC (and hence I can hook it up to my monitor with the adapter), and...

Sorry folks, but when I got the Torx screwdriver today, I couldn´t resist. Opened the Mac. Figured how to get out the board. ALL CAPS LEAKING! 8-o I´m washing it clean now! Needs a week or so to dry. You can read about my preparations on my blog. Any constructive comments welcome. Hey, I...

Okay, I did some reading yesterday about the SE. Seems the SE was the improved Plus. It works between 10-20 % faster, option for internal HD, later models with Superdrive, PDS slot, "better" cooling. Improved on almost all aspects. But, why does it only support up to 4 MB like the Plus? Or...

Okay, I have the opportunity to snag a working 520C for a "donation" to the college. Any opinions of what I should give? Having seen them on Ebay between 45 to 100 $ with Buyitnow. If one is lucky one can get one for less with a bet. Since ebay prices are most likely always inflated, I would...

Just wondering, could one originally order a Plus with already 4 MB shipped from factory? Or did only dealers upgrade them? Are there any visible signs if a case was opened? Thanks

Just wanted to announce that F7274XTM0001A is back to active duty officially today, April 9th. I picked it up in Canada a while ago, and stored it until yesterday. I was always looking for a compact to use actively as a backup writing station and thought this Plus will just do it. Came with...

Hi guys, I'm looking into buying a Mac Plus/Se/Se30 or Classic and a Laser Writer or similiar for some productivity tasks, esp. word processing. I've never owned a classic Mac but I like the idea of a very compact and cheap system, easy to backup and doing what I want it to do without crashing...
