I bit, you say it. I don't think it should goes for over 20$!

Considering that this computer sold at around 1200$ US in 1994, great deal, hein? That's what I saw at a local shop that sells everything used: from furniture to computers. At that price, I think the guy it waiting for the fish to come in... Funny. I wanted to negotiate a nice deal (for me)...

The cube came, as far as I remember, with the 2 transparent balls. That's what I have on mine. Cool! I have the CRT 17" Studio Display. Huge, but great resolution, even at maximum pixels!!

The color classic was originally shipped with system 7.1 and system enabler 401. So it may be difficult to make it boot system 6, unless you can use the correct system enabler.

I'll give a try to the Gigaloo for now. It is more liquid, so easier to spread where needed.

Thanks for saying so. That was really helpful!

I agree that WD40 is not a good lubricator. It is more a cleaner. First time I used white lithium grease after I clean it up. Did not remember that until now. To help cleaning, this time, I dismantle the moving arts from the drive, then put them into paint thinner for the night. That's how I...

Last report: I succeeded again to startup the computer and wanted to install OS 8 on it. While doing so, the installer told me at one point that my HD had problems, data could be lost, and blah blah blah. At that point I fire up Drive Setup and the HD was not seen by the application. Bad sign...

I may try this. A little bit as I did for the hinge repair of my eMates. Actually, I know they are 400K drive. I wanted to say, the drive in my 128K mac. I just said it the wrong way! Thanks

Hi, My 128K have some problems with its floppy drive. I removed when I received it a few month ago and clean the mechanical parts with WD40, because they were just stucked together. Impossible to insert a disk or remove it from the drive. It worked fine for a while, but the problem is back...

Hi, I have a SE/30 with shows strange behaviors. Here the list of them: First, and it always did that when I received it, when open the monitor is displaying horizontal lines for a while, then the staring chime happen (after a few minutes) and it can boot. Recently, I saw it doing that again...

As already said, the 128 Gb is the limit. I have one, and never used drive larger than 120Gb, actually, largest was 80. Now I have a 13G in it. Don't forget the 8Gb limit for the OS X partition. The Beige IDE have a problem with this. If a required system file is located over the 8GB barrier...

Yes, I did that.

Humm, still having problems here with this! Sometimes it starts, sometimes it does not. I change the HD for a 20 Gig one. I put back the memory sticks, and it booted once with the memory in. So maybe the memory is not bad, but not sure. That time, when it happen, I booted up with the OS 8.0 CD...

The way it is installed internally, it is difficult to make that mistake: the CD slots in to a special connector with adaptors, while the HD is installed directly with the ribbon cable not he front of the computer. But still, I'm not sure the HD is the only problem, as if I unplug it, I can...

Hi, I'm beginning to see the light. When I realized I had a 6360, I also saw that it has 16 meg onboard. So, I removed the 2 memory sticks, the PCI Ethernet card, the CD-ROM, the floppy and the HD. I realized at that moment that one memory stick was not well seated, could be it, but continue...

My multimeter have 5 V DC positions: 200m, 2000m, 20, 200, 1000. So, unless I do not understand something, when I put in in mode 20 (or 200 as last time) is it displaying around 14. I suppose that mean 14V! Or maybe my Mastercraft multimeter is not working fine! Also, to be sure you know, I'm...

Reading the tech manual, I was surprise to read that the 6200 series has a PDS slot. Mine have a PCI one. So I looked at the casing to realized it is a 6360 model, the only one in this series to have a PCI slot :) Still not working, but I upgraded it from one model to another just by opening...

Like I said, I'm on the setting 20 V DC, so I'm not in resistance mode (which is, if memory serve, OHM mode). What happen, is that it begans at around 17.5 then grow up to up to 20 then 1. Just tried it again, now it stocks at 14V. For a 4.5 volt battery that a lot ;) Maybe I'm doing...

Found the CUDA near the RAM slots. I think for this to work, one needs to remove the battery before, right? That's what I did, battery is removed since yesterday. But even after 30 seconds, do not boot yet. I may also try this. I tested the battery with a multimeter (at 20VDC) and, maybe I do...
