    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    I've heard a lot of good things about Joe from a lot of people, so I'm leaning pretty strongly towards going with him! I think I'll FINALLY find the time to respond to him today... Yeah, I saw that thread about the SE/30 Reloaded. Luckily, this is far from my first time dealing with JLCPCB and...

    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    Good idea, I'll make an account on hacker news and start answering some questions. And wow Joe, you're actually the second person who's approached me about potentially being a reseller! I don't have a problem with that at all (in fact, that would be great), but there's just so much happening...

    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    Wow, this is a lot of demand! Maybe the 100-board order that I was considering isn't so far-fetched after all...

    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    Got it. As I mentioned, it'll all depend on demand, but I'll try to stay under your $150 figure if I can!

    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    Yeah sorry, I probably should've put the questions closer to the end! I'm notorious for talking waaayyy too much in my posts sometimes... To answer @stepleton's question about the price, I really can't say yet because it depends greatly on how many I end up ordering, which of course depends on...

    The Apple Lisa Inside an FPGA!

    Over the past 8 months or so, I've been working on implementing a fully-functional Lisa inside an FPGA, and I'm happy to announce that I'm just about done with the project! I've designed a custom board that contains the FPGA and all of the Lisa connectors and interfaces that you need in order...

    Lisa PCB Silkscreen Font

    Thanks for all of the suggestions guys! If we're not able to find the original font from Apple's CAD package, I'll definitely look into the Fontographer thing. I hadn't considered recreating the font using the original text as a template, so thanks for giving me that idea if all else fails!

    Lisa PCB Silkscreen Font

    Hi guys! I asked this same question on LisaList2 yesterday, but I figured I'd post it here too in case anybody can help. I've been working on replicas of a bunch of Lisa PCBs lately and so far I've been able to get everything really accurate to the originals, with the exception of one thing...

    Apple Lisa No Video

    All of the PSU voltages seem to be fine.

    Apple Lisa No Video

    I checked/reseated the connectors and they seem to be making contact just fine. What should I try next? I'm guessing the problem has something to do with the lack of the 300V and -100V voltages or the 5V bus that is too low.

    Apple Lisa No Video

    I have replaced all of the capacitors as well as the TDA1170 chip and nothing changed. I'll check the connectors right now to make sure that they're making contact. Do you have any tips on getting a multimeter probe down on the bottom part of the video board? It's really hard since there's a...

    Apple Lisa No Video

    I have an Apple Lisa 2/5 that was working fine up until about a month ago. The screen started randomly collapsing to a horizontal line and eventually got to the point where it was unusable because it was a horizontal line all of the time. After a few weeks of troubleshooting, I found that the...

    Mystic Color Classic Repair

    I just received a Color Classic with a Performa/LC 575 logic board (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Apple-Macintosh-Color-Classic-MYSTIC-computer/233213293063?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649) and I am trying to get it running again. I tested the computer with my...

    Macintosh Quadra 700 Battery Leakage

    That is very strange. The link still works fine for me.
