I think "holy cow" is appropriate. Nice score. :)

@Durosity Here's an Amazon link with the ISBN and stuff. Here's a PDF copy you can view on Archive.org. And here's a Disk Image of my copy.

Great job with the case badge. If you find any other Macs with accelerators that are missing their badges, just let me know. I've scanned in a large collection of them and converted them to vector. Would make importing them into CAD and extruding them for a 3D printer pretty easy.

@Durosity And the "Art of Darkness" book that came with more modules.

Why, so you'll have it when you buy a sealed copy of More After Dark!

If it matters at all, as a non-programmer, I discovered that the AI coding agents will actually produce useable code for THINK C. I tried for many, many hours to get it to do anything for CodeWarrior with zero success. I think it's because the code it steals for THINK C is, by necessity, clean...

Yay!

Oooo, neat. I like that tilt n' swivel design study with the wood accent on the keyboard.

@finkmac Nice sleuthing. The .cpt is just a picture, but the executable looks to be correct. :) Too bad it's not a disk image, but it's a start. Should be a bootable floppy disk. Perhaps I can reconstruct it. Thanks!

If this is the kind of iMac with a magnetic screen that's easily removable with a suction cup, then you can try the RAM trick. On some models of Intel Macs, removing a stick of RAM to change the total amount of RAM and booting it will also remove the firmware lock. Incidentally, I also kept...

I've read that the already premixed "Heavy Hammock" you can get at stores (PPG1027-3) is a very close match to Apple beige. Here it is next to an actual paint sample of Apple beige from a touchup kit direct from Apple.
