Got a mangy PowerBook 100. All cleaned and recapped, works well now, using the HDD from the Duo 250 since that has bad tunnel vision I currently don't have the time to treat. This had had the trackball PCB worn thru, and was coated in nicotine tar.

Was given a Classic II board. Broken slot removed for later replacement. Recapped it with new junk that was sitting at the bottom of a decommissioned pick and place. No real plans for it yet.

Got some NuBus cards: 8•24GC, ColorSpace II and ColorSpace FX, and a Toby. GWorld slots on the 8•24GC reverse engineered and SIMMs designed.

And also a 520, which needed some fixing. Both are in pretty decent shape, as far as 500 series machines go.

Had gotten and repaired a Duo 230 earlier in 2022. Got a floppy adapter for it - nope, dead SWIM in that. *sigh*. Sold Duo 230 at cost to a friend.
