Love that amber SE/30. I dug up your old thread about it, I never realized those were so easily swappable. Those white phosphor screens are the absolute weakest element of the compact macs. I feel vaguely uncomfortable the moment the screen fades in, PTSD from the awful headaches I used to...

Incredible hoard!

Interestingly, here is a French White M7803 with 'F 658-0235' on it! Like Chris said, thanks for sharing your collection with us in such detail, really beautiful (and helpful)

Its a shame the store didn't get archived. Apple seems to be allergic to showing peripherals when they present the machines or in their ads to help figure this out: )
