    Different Macintosh in Original User Guide?

    The standard feet on my units here are not even installed.  The feet that are there really look like the ones on my the Apple II series, and even on the bottom of the ProFIle drives and maybe even the Disk II's.  As for the faceplate, I had not noticed that yet.  Interesting input everyone -...

    Different Macintosh in Original User Guide?

    Thanks everyone for your input.  So here are some questions answered then: Trash80toHP_Mini:  The buckets on mine are textured, but the vent ports are all smooth and shiny.  I still have to get that really long Torx 15.  Once I do, I will post take apart photos here in this topic. I have to...

    Different Macintosh in Original User Guide?

    Thanks for the insight PB145B.  I am likely going to keep one (although with age maybe the electronics go bad who knows), and sell one - yes.  Trying to figure out starting bid.  I have had these for over 20 years, and never gave them a second thought until now.  I am going through my collection...

    Different Macintosh in Original User Guide?

    Macintosh Portables Dead

    Thank you all for your input - it certainly gives me a lot to test and attempt to solve.  Thanks again.  Will post my findings and success if you are at all interested.  One of the units is a pre-release unit so that may be my first one to work on.  It has a serial number, but a big bold sticker...

    Macintosh Portables Dead

    Thanks LaPorta, “it even ran off the replacement battery” - by this I mean that the unit continued to be powered when I unplugged the AC adapter.  In the unit I was running my 6V battery. I think that this batter is good.  6v 5mAh, same kind in my kid's electric ride'em car.  In fact, here is...

    Macintosh Portables Dead

    Hello, I know that there is much discussion around the Mac Portables and their woes with powering up.  So much information, in fact, that I have become lost in it all and have no idea where to start.  So, if I may, some simple questions, and some directional guidance required. I have several of...

    Early Mac LC proto?

    Even more strange , EveilCapitalist, is that that second floppy port would work!  I did this experiment years ago by attaching a second floppy to that unit and knocking out the faceplate - taking the space where the HD would normally go.  I also left the HDD connected.  So my hacked LC had a...
