That has to be the most complete 128K set I have seen. Great job. ...I would love to see (decent) scans/photos of all that Picasso art.  ;)

SIT is a Stuffit archive file. These were common on Macs. While the PC world mostly used WinZip and ZIP files, Macs mostly used Stuffit and SIT files. To expand SIT files you need either Stuffit, or the free version of it (Stuffit Expander). As you have a 68000 Mac AFAIK the last version you...

...Is it possible to put the Tsunami ROM in a 9500? Any benefit of doing so?

...If you put Stuffit Expander 4.0/4.5 on your SE/30, then you will be able to open .sit files. You won't be able to open sit file made with later versions, but most software for that era Mac is available in the older .sit format anyway. No HFVExplorer needed. Please note: There appears to be...

This page describes the different versions of the Mac Plus ROM. Most revisions were to fix SCSI issues. AFAIK all ROM version will work in all Pluses. It is probably best to have the latest version, though I don't know if any of the fixed issues affect newer devices like the SCSI2SD or the...

AFAIK the last version of Stuffit/Expander to work on a 68000 (SE/Plus/etc) was 4.5. Version 4.0.1 was the last to work under System 6.

AFAIK 400k/800k disks store extra data on their disks (tags?). This data is not copied by the later versions of Disk Copy, and since some old stuff used this extra storage part of the disk is lost when you copy it with a later version. For 1.44MB disks either should be fine for copying.

There are 28 pin DIP IC 'test clips' like the one listed here, but not only are they $8 each plus postage, but they are likely too high to be usable inside a Mac.

...If the links are still available but the page leading to them is gone, are we allowed to make a 'mirror' of the URL links from the old page and post them here?

...In regards to an MMU on a 68000, it seems the slighly upgraded version (68010) was capable of using an MMU (68451).

What about making one with the boot beep from a later model Mac?

...If a dishwasher does wonders for mac internals I wonder what it'd do for mac coverings?  ;)

Does anyone know the part number for the plug that connects the early logic boards to the analog board cable? Also, does anyone know the part number of the socket that is mounted to the board (the one in the picture)? Thanks in advance.

AFAIK the 2 RAM slot board is the board used in the LC 580 and Performa 640. It has 2 slots, as well as the GIMO (I/O) ports for the DOS card connectors. I've heard people saying they've seen the board in LC 630s as well. It typically only had 1 RAM slot and missing the DOS card connectors. I...

Great find Compgeke! ...I wonder how much lighter that Lisa 2 is compared to one not missing all the internals.

Just adding to my info above, I'm sure I remember the creme developer used to be in percentage, but now they list it in vol. You can get 20, 30 or 40 vol in either 200ml or 1L bottles. From what I've read its best to get the highest concentration as you can water it down later if necessary...

Haven't tried it myself but came across http://www.amiga.org/forums/showthread.php?t=51985 when I was looking a while back and seems you can get all the stuff here (assuming there is a Priceline near you). They sell a 12% peroxide solution that you can buy in a big bottle for larger jobs.

Why not just try the lowest setting possible (3x @ 66mhz?), just to see if it boots at all. You can worry about the perfect settings later.

Just wondering, have you tried the floppy cable in another mac as well?

...A bit off topic for the 'FPU card' side of it, but AFAIK the expansion slot on the Classic II also handles the external ROM slot as well (up to 1MB IIRC). If you're designing a board at all, why not include the potential future ROM upgrades by including a ROM socket as well? I'd love to see...
