I did not, mostly because I would not know what I was even looking at - I thought I had heard of others having similar issues in the past but couldn't remember what they said it was. Cracked solder connections was what I was trying to remember. Thanks! I posted in the Trading Post to see if...

That is a good idea! @CC_333, Do you by chance have a known good AB?

Haven‘t tried thumping it, haha. But as mentioned, if I touch the “voltage” screw adjustment on the analog board, I get a glimpse of an image (with the brightness turned all the way up). Definitely sounds like an analog board issue, but not sure what part (or if it is as simple as the...

I am sure this has been posted about before, but my lack of technical expertise doesn't even know what to search for. I have an original mac - Last week it worked fine. This week, when I turned it on, I got nothing on the screen. The boot chime sounded as normal, and when a disk is inserted I...

I am not even sure how to check for a processor upgrade without cracking the thing open...

Here are some pictures of the connectors:

It is definitely an internal card. The port has been "hacked" into the place where a security cable normally would go. I am loathe to open it up to look because I have no idea how the card fits in there and I don't want to damage it...

Ha! Unfortunately my son had dibs on the truck =p

One of my new Mac Pluses driving the Radius Full Page Display. Pretty cool - I have never seen a compact mac driving an external display before...

I’m picking up the Cinema Display, peripherals, radius full page display, and other stuff next week!

Huge haul today. The attached picture shows just some of it. I need to go back next week to get the rest. This is an Apple collection a pair of college professors (one of whom has since passed) accumulated over the years. Everything is in *pristine* condition. When all is said and done, it...

My wife's uncle found out I was a fan of vintage Apple equipment so he sent some boxes over.  A complete, working, Apple IIc machine, complete with all the manuals, a joystick, something apple branded called a "modulator," an ImageWriter, and some sealed 5.25 inch floppy disks!  He bought these...

Hey all - Does the PRAM battery in the G3 Wallstreets pose an existential threat to the machine like the PRAM battery in the 3400c and other machines?  Based on where and how Apple buried it, it doesn't seem like any leakage would affect the innards of the machine (so long as it was left laying...

Anchor Electronics in the South San Francisco Bay area has 4164 RAM chips, but I don't know what, if any, difference there are between those and D4164C chips. http://anchor-electronics.com/price-list.pdf Where are you located?  I have a 5V RAM board from my spare (re: board needs to be...

Someone in the Monterey, CA area is selling a 128k with a "Gemini" 020/030 processor upgrade -- there aren't any pictures of the inside, but I guess there was at least one company called "Gemini" that made such an upgrade? https://monterey.craigslist.org/sys/5928855151.html

Awesome news!

My friend was also, apparently, a very active member of BMUG and was responsible for putting together their CDs.  He gave me copies of a 1995, 1996, and 1997 BMUG CD.  No idea what is on these -- will have to check them out!

A friend of mine who found out I was a fan of older Apple products gave me a stack of Post-It -type notes in the form of the Mac!  He says he got this at an Apple event in the early 80s.  

Thanks for the great idea;  I'll pick one up!

Which CF reader do you use on the Wallstreer? That's a great idea and would save me from having to burn CDs.
