MarNo84's Collection & finds

[MarNo84]

Hi friends,

as I just discovered this area here on 68kmla - I felt that I need to give my input too

My actual collection consists mostly of Apple stuff, followed by NeXT and a few other nice things.

You can always keep an eye on my webpage and/or my small YouTube channel:

Excellent! I love looking at how people organize their stuff, and work areas. That’s really, really nice! Very maximized.

 

[olePigeon]

That is an exceptionally nice collection.  Nice job.

By the way, what is the Apple II doing on the wall?

 

[ArmorAlley]

You're right. I thought it was an air-conditioner until I looked more closely.

I suppose the answer is being pretty.

This is my very first Apple //e I got a few years back due I only really use my Platinum IIe with DuoDisk this one is "obsolete" and well, I thought it just looks cool this way too

Airconditioner ...I just fell of my seat xD

Is that a Sanyo luggable partially disassembled in the second to last picture?

 

[MarNo84]

Well it's sadly no Sanyo - it's a 286 AT clone computer I got in parts a while ago

 

[EvieSigma]

It's eerily reminiscent of the Sanyo MBC-775, an early 8088 based luggable. Though that machine had vertical floppy drives instead of horizontal.

I know well, I took it from an local ad - it was just $10 so I had no other choice

I like the Mac Classic battery-explody board pinned to the side of the bookshelf  :grin:

Nonworking wrecked boards still look cool to me and imo make great artwork. I wonder how many of us do this? I have a sheet of plywood in my basement I stick them to.

Yeah fun fact, I really tried on that Classic board :/ even restored some traces and CPU pins with wires...but didn't help much - now it's a 'classy' art thing on the wall

I did the same with some of my Lisa boards and an early Macintosh 128k board too - but good thing here is, they all still work after their repair

ah, an Siemens SPS thing I had one of these in the past too  quite cool machine!

 

[Bolle]

I wonder how many of us do this?

I do this too. I even started to frame them instead of hanging them onto the wall just the way they are.

 

[MarNo84]

a good frame can just make a huge difference on the wall I just got me a few deep/hollow frames from IKEA to put in some small stuff like the first iPhone or iPod

 

[Bolle]

Indeed. I just finished this... it's going to look great on the wall (but also was a real PITA to get done)

 

[Trash80toHP_Mini]

That's beautiful! Makes me wanna clear off my (solder side cap corroded) 840av board, electroplate it chrome or something to mount it in a frame with LED sidelighting for extra pizzaz. Backlighting the thru-holes would be very cool as well.

 @MarNo84 I love that Lisa2 front bezel you have hanging at an angle over your bench. That's the only bit of Lisa in my collection, can't figure out how to best display or hack it, but that's a great way to store it!
