You're worried about getting zapped and now you want to stick a fork in it? Sounds like a good way to get zapped to me. Better use plastic. ;)

Relax. Just close your eyes and it will all be over soon... er... on second thought keep your eyes open and take your time. :)

Skeet? :)

Thanks Tom! I did get a bit more work done today than I have the past couple months. :)

Nice pick up!

Duo Keyboards are notoriously crap. I've owned 3 Duo's (270, 280, 2300) and the keyboards were crap on all of them. My 2300, the only Duo I still have, has the wrist rest from an older Duo. It has a trackball instead of a trackpad... which I prefer.

Not to foster your unintended hijacking, but that's not a half-bad idea.

Whenever I pull one of my II's out, I always find myself playing Lode Runner.

Nice! I'm gonna have to put some thought into a project...

Nope, not exactly plug and play. You could always get a 5.25" PC drive and plug it into a Windows box and transfer the files to a 3.5" floppy. Although, I'm not exactly sure what your project is... If the point is to get a Mac to read a 5.25" DOS floppy and not just get the files transfered...

I don't have anything bad to say about ANY of my 11 compacts... 2 Classic II's among them. The SE/30 just happens to be my favorite with it's 2 ADB ports (I plug my barcode scanner into the second port), large memory expansion, and ethernet card. The Classic II is a nice machine. Enjoy!

Let me guess... the first thing you did was open MacPaint and write "hello" on the screen. :)

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. I'll have to tear it apart at some point, if for no other reason than to see what blew. Not sure what I want to do with it. For now it's sitting outside... it was really smelling up the house.

I would pull the batteries out of any computer that you are not regularly using. I have lost two PM 6100's because the batteries exploded destroying the motherboards, power supply, and cases. If the battery is registering under 3.3v, I wouldn't hesitate to clip it. If it is still good then I...

So, I hooked up one of my IIgs' a couple hours ago and started playing with it. I poked around the Startup Disk a bit, made a backup copy, then went immediately into Lode Runner, everything is working fine. About ten minutes ago I hear a loud POP! Everything is still on... Lode is still...

Ooooo.... Good Luck! I've always wanted one of those...

Does your System heap use 2 MB more when in 24-bit addressing mode than it does when in 32-bit? http://lowendmac.com/trouble/32bit.shtml

8-o

I didn't really think about the LC being a bit different, but I guess that would make sense since it supports dual-floppies. Your correct the 605 and 475 use the same board and (without looking it up) I'm pretty sure the gestalt ID's are different.

Well, that clears that up. :)
