Congrats!!!

Thanks @jmacz !

Ain't this a pretty sight?

That is awesome with the M1297/M0401, AEKI and older adb mouse! I have the M0401 and AEKI with mine as well but no longer have the older mouse as I gave it to a friend. Will get another one sometime.

Right on! I like to keep my peripherals period-correct to the system. I will say all those Brits who keep showing off their Kensington Turbo Mice will eventually make me get one for the IIfx!

Haha, I went overboard with those turbo mice. I have three of the 5.0, three of the 4.0, and one of the 3.0s.

Glad I could help!! Hopefully it all holds up. That memory module is probably fixable don’t throw it away!!

The problem with them is... I keep forgetting and turning it upside down.

That's a terrible affliction that only has one cure...send the Turbo Mouse to me!

I told it too, but it doesn't seem to be listening to me.

I just found out about this thread. I seriously envy you. I'm aspired to rescue stuff again, but every opportunity I have doesn't seem to work out. ;_;

Sometimes it's just a case of coming back to things. If I'm struggling with a machine I put it to one side and come back to it when I have new ideas, or even skills

Any failed repair is just more project opertunities. Besides, working on them is the fun bit. It's always harder to work out what to do after they're finished!

The man of the hour himself, ladies and gents!

Will keep the 4MB SIMM. Any PBX updates?

And thank you very much @alectrona2988 !

haven’t messed with it short of removing all the screws. Need to fire it up, but VCF East stuff comes first!

Another good choice for a period correct setup... M1298 and M0116, with the correct A9M0331 mouse.

 

[ClassicGuyPhilly]

Very nice looking IIfx system you have there @volvo242gt

Likewise, @ClassicGuyPhilly.
