It's just called 'Kids Typing' by Bright Star Technology 1993. I have been playing the Links Pro a lot!

My daughter has taken over it for now but I will be restoring it when I get my staycation from work

Yes will do. Will get it later today

Thanks - will probably pick it up Monday and start tinkering with it

Sounds good I will probably pick it up and have a new toy to play with.  I'm hoping the Floppy Emu works with it also.  

A neighbor is selling an LC575 Macintosh machine for $125 or best offer. It has the original KB/Mouse, CD ROM and comes with some educational software.  It has OS 7.5 on it. It has a network port but I am not sure if this is just an Appletalk, or can I use it to do TCP/IP networking. Attached...

This is the glue you want: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006O8EJO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Also, just leave the case out in the sun for 2 hours, most of the yellowing will go away.   very nice find!

strange..  Maybe just need to open it up and reconnect everything really good and look for cold solder joints or obvious things.  But who knows, could be caps on the analog board starting to go bad.   

Nice, looks like you will have a fully restored machine

After partially sliding out analog board, there are two soldered wires (red/black see pic)  preventing me from removing board from assembly. How do I get to the connection on the assembly to remove them. Also how do I remove hard drive?  Yes I looked at service manual but didnt see it

Great news. Glad it all worked out. 

You just insert a small flat head down the end of one side of the battery cover and gently lift the tab and lift it up.  You can try to clean up around the cap(s) with rubbing alcohol for now. 

Thanks guys glad you mentioned the limitation of one partition. I would have been scratching my head!

How do you create a system picker at boot time? I would like to have a couple OS options considering partitioning is easy and HD space is cheap

The chances of a new battery leaking/exploding in an indoor climate environment  are almost none. It's only if you have it for 15 years and forget about it,or store it too hot or cold. 

Even more important is to remove the battery if it's the original. If that leaks, your computer will be dead

The networking will solve your big file issue. I run 'filezilla' on a PC on one folder, and use 'fetch ftp' on the SE/30 to transfer files that I put in the PC folder Those wifi extenders can be configured a few ways, but it looks like the n300 ethernet port is an extended port. So you should...

The board looks like it has room even if longer, but I emailed the seller to ask for the pin to pin length to see if it would drop into the holes for soldering. Below is one that may be shorter.   The existing one I measured to be 1.25" or (3.175cm)...

I saw another close up with the same ones you have and some had a 104 written on them. we used to use these in electronics. They were almost always 0.1uF and are called 'decoupling' capacitors used for every chip to keep noise down You would be safe to use that value. 0.1uf 50v axial.

The cap looks to me like a 0.1uF 50v based on a Google of 'macintosh se logic board close up' and they had the yellow ones with a 104 marking. What are the colors on the ones you have?
