My analog board is also waiting for its recap... and I'm thinking the same!

Brilliant thank you very much!

So are IIfx PSUs different from other Mac II PSUs?

Man I love these monsters... if I only had the space... I've passed up a few 900s in my time...

Here you can see what the system sees, and the benchmarks results etc from Apple Personal Diagnostics         (apologies for the gallery images, I can't seem to figure out how to upload images directly into a post)

This is lame of me I know, but I can't actually remember when or how I picked them up - it'll have been at least 3 years in my home though

Yeah I've got drivers for the Gemini - they were already installed. The Orion card is a bit trickier but I've downloaded all the drivers. Not had time to try them. The Gemini is working great - the SE shows it has 16mb RAM!! But only 8mb of logical RAM available to the system - the rest...

Could you share where you found the installer for Compact Virtual and for GemStart 3.0? (I have the control panels on an SE but not the installers themselves) Thanks! :)

So I pulled out my four SEs that I've never given much attention to, in order to give them a thorough check up and remove all their PRAM batteries. What should I find in two of them but some pretty powerful accelerator boards! One had an Orion, from MacPEAK Systems - an 020 running at 20mhz...

That is one crazy upgrade, and some brilliant detective work! I love how all these esoteric old gems surface now and again with their own stories :D

Oh yes I'd heard about using a Raspberry Pi for tunnelling before and had totally forgotten - thank you so much for all the info and guidance. I may even get time to try this out over the holiday season :D

Serious kudos to you for all the effort! I've probably only recapped 5-10 (lost count) of my 50 or so Macs... seriously impressed! :D

Yeah, the SSL is the killer issue, thanks for the tips! Unlikely I'll go through all those hoops, but glad to know I wasn't wrong when I attempted it and concluded it was a bit too much hassle :)

Hey John, I'm really interested - what application are you using for email?

Great ideas Bunsen! My favourite is probably the frosted transparent, but if the snow white one could be more distinctive, deeper grooves, or all th way through, or trying some of Bunsen's suggestions that'd be awesome

Always nice to learn something new! I had no idea this was possible :)

Wow!  8-o  That is awesome :D

Great - enjoy! How about Through The Looking Glass: Also this article has great coverage of the earliest games for Mac: http://www.filfre.net/2014/02/macware/

Yeah if you find anything, that'd be awesome. I'm keeping an eye out too and will do the same if I have any luck.

Oh nice! I saw that one on ebay and was tempted... but I already have a 128... sadly (if you want original config) it's been upgraded to 512k like most of them surely were. If you want to get an original M0100 mouse with the squared-off connector (not sure if that auction came with one?) to...
