Who has a set? What's the sound quality like? As far as I know, they were originally intended to compliment the Apple IIGS... Were they ever sold outside the US? Also, going through photos, some have an Apple rainbow logo and others have an Apple rainbow square...? Any ideas?

So we all know that a LOT of 512k Macs were upgraded to Mac Plus during the mid to late 80's, via "upgrade kits" that Apple released... That means, you still find an odd hybrid Mac that consists of a 512k front bezel (+CRT and analogue board) with a Mac Plus rear bucket and logic board. I have...

I've found a possible Mac conquest however it's located in Delft Netherlands!! What a long shot, but is anyone within reasonable distance and can help me out at all?

Had a wanted advert locally for an M0001ED (Platinum) and had a phone call. Usual deal - "I've got one but you must take the lot." Turned out the M0001ED was actually beige (damn) but he had some other interesting bits so we haggled and struck a deal. The stash: Macintosh 512k (M0001E) -...

Wow, this week has been pretty good so far, conquest-wise. Last night I picked up a few gems from a collector who is moving interstate. Highlights were: A working Mac SE with an Apple carry bag!! It's awesome. Even has a little removable Apple pouch for floppy discs and another for the...

Well, none of it is particularly inspiring however it's a conquest none the less... On my way around to my Sisters house (visit for her B'day) and spotted a lonely Mac SE on the curb side. Pulled over and jumped out and there was also a pair of 6100's, a pair of 7100's and a Performa 6360 so...

Loaded up my panelvan with a whole stash of Apple gear Saturday, only just finished sorting through it and packing it into shelves in my shed before it got dark. As these larger conquests tend to be, it was all free. The guy used to own an Apple repair centre locally. Parts: stack of logic...

Over the weekend I picked up a Macintosh 512k ED which has been gutted and unfortunately had the handle chopped out as it had previously been converted to be used as a Macquarium!!! :O Anyway, I still bought it (read: saved it) for $65 8-o which is obviously a lot of cash for a very dead...

This long weekend gone I managed to get myself the following: Blueberry 350MHz iMac - working Blueberry 400MHz iMac - not working Snow 500MHz iMac - untested Flower Power 600MHz iMac - working Dalmatian 500MHz iMac - working all for a total of $200 (which I think is pretty good)! The Snow...

Hey folks, I'd like to say a public "thank you" to a fellow 68KMLA'er (TheNixer) for my latest conquest. I've got myself a Performa 200! I realise it's "just a re-badged Classic II" but I had to have one in my collection. Another terrible photo, I know.

Finally got my hands on a Platinum Macintosh ED (512k). Powers on to the over-voltage crowbar. Hopefully it's repairable, I'll have a look sometime though I'm not overly worried, just glad I've finally found one. A quick cleanup reveals it's in good cosmetic condition other than a few small...

Ok so I know there's a fair amount of info on the net and on 68kmla regarding decoding the Sad Mac error codes however, I'm stuck... I've a Mac 512k here which is in fairly average cosmetic condition and it starts up without chime and shows a Sad Mac with the number 02A000. Any ideas what this...

Was anyone else watching the Performa 200 on ebay? Did it really (legitimately) sell for this price? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/110760042917?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_500wt_1222

Most will know about the mammoth conquest jsarchibald carried out and shared with us in July - viewtopic.php?f=3&t=16410. Anyway, I've just recently returned from the same property thanks to jsarchibald putting me in contact with the owner. I am lucky enough that the company I work for has...

Just this morning picked up: SE/30 with Ethernet card PowerBook Duo with Apple branded carry bag 9600/300 G3 Server (300MHz tower) with Apple SCSI card and Apple Ethernet card PowerMac G4 MDD (dual 1.0GHz) iMac G3 Graphite 600MHz iMac G3 Dalmatian 500MHz pile of MISC Apple cables and a...

I have a couple of early Macintosh 128k's (with just "Macintosh" on the back). However they all have International analogue boards pn: 630-0108 with red PRAM battery compartments. Anyone know why these particular Macs have red battery holders? I've not seen any others like this, all my other...

Does anyone have one of those more "rare' compact variants? Is anyone willing to put up a picture or two of theirs? Specifically I'm thinking along the lines of these modes: Macintosh 512ke platinum Macintosh ED Macintosh ED platinum Macintosh Plus ED Macintosh Plus ED platinum Macintosh...

Picked up a cosmetically immaculate 400MHz Titanium PowerBook G4 last week, wasn't powering on and needed CD drive replacement. Had a spare 500MHz one at home, working but with a smashed screen - made one out of the two. New specs are 500MHz, 768MB RAM, 20 GB HD, DVD-ROM, Airport - not bad for...

Been inactive a little while on the forums, but added two items just recently to my conquest list. Was lucky enough to pick up a PowerMac 7600/200 with a Sonnet G4-400MHz processor upgrade, 1GB RAM (8x 128MB), Sonnet USB2/FireWire400 combo card and an additional video card with DVI and VGA all...

Been a bit inactive recently on these forums, only due to work commitments... However, i recently picked up a HAUL of stuff for the sum of $20 (not including fuel money to pick them up though...) some working some not: 7200/120 9500/120 with a zip drive, LaserWriter IINT and 20" Apple...
