    G5 DVT unit - basket case or worth trying to get the board repaired...

    Picked up this a few years ago as "needing a new PSU", however on tearing it down the board looks like it has seen liquid and has impact damage - worth a repair? Anyone know someone in the UK who could look at this: https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/performa450s-machines.44085/post-483273

    Performa450's Machines

    Power Mac 6100 DOS Compatible

    I've been after one of these or a 630 DOS Compatible for a while, took a punt on one earlier this week and was pipped at the post on eBay. However, another came up this week so I took a gamble. Hopefully it isn't battery bombed, and my German is good enough to get it packed well...

    iPod Touch EVT (probably)

    Will arrive sometime this year (hopefully!): https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/125642660469 Looks like a very early EVT (but not as old as Jajan547's...) of the 3rd gen iPod touch (serial number indicating a May production date). Will it be the one that's effectively a second gen with better radio...

    Possibly a prototype Power Mac 4400

    Purchased this recently and it’s winging its way to me. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-PowerPC-Macintosh-Mac-4400-200-Computer-M3959-w-Keyboard-and-Mouse-/125023269582 Initially it looks like an overpriced for untested 4400, but a closer look at the photos and the sellers description of...

    Lobos board (Strange Apple ROM)

    I recently picked this 1 MB ROM peculiarity up - 4x 2 Mb flash ROMs... anyone know either what this is (other than a 1992 ROM SIMM :-), or an official rominator... ) or an easy/inexpensive way to dump this to find out whats on it? I've not seen a "Lobos Board" before. The only period Mac I have...

    IIgs Prototype

    I spotted a strange looking IIe with IIgs upgrade on eBay earlier this week and had to buy it. Here's the auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Apple-IIe-/182464335513 It arrived last night so I've added some pictures of the board to a gallery here:   Main differences so far - it is...

    WGS 9150 Zephyr "120 Mhz" EVT-1 Board

    Found this up for grabs and now conquered - must be one of a kind. Nice probably never seen out side Apple circuit board art and reveals a new apple codename, I think!

    MacBook Pro 17" 2.0 Core Duo DVT

    Latest addition to my collection! Unfortunately purchased slightly too late from a recycler, the smashed screen, surround and drives had been disposed of but the (sold as working) rest of the system was all there... but fully dismantled. All looks the part though, boards are green with extra...

    Anyone know what this is?

    I acquired this in a lot of boards a few months ago. Any idea what it is? I've tried googling the part number but couldn't find anything.

    I'm new here, so thought I'd say Hi! and document my stash

    Hey all, I'm new here so thought I'd say hi! I've been collecting for a few years, and I love macs. I initially had a small collection of Powerbook protos which I resold as I was living in a shared house at the time and needed the space. Anyways, here's my current collection. I'll start with...
