    Intel iMac from work...

    I agree entirely. I wouldn't be where I am today had it not been for my parents encouraging my insatiable curiosity for all things computer/networking growing up.

    Macintosh SE - moving data in and out

    Well I would hesitate to give a 100% answer without seeing it for myself... Based on my own memory, and supported by this article: http://chrislawson.net/writing/macdaniel/2k0329.shtml - I believe all Apple-manufactured 1.44MB floppy drives are capable of 800K. I know that Mac OS X has serious...

    Macintosh SE - moving data in and out

    I remember copying the PC Exchange control panel from a 7.5.x machine to a Mac running 7.0 or 7.1, many moons ago... And it worked. I wonder if that's all it would take? I wish I remembered if it handled long filenames!

    Macintosh SE - moving data in and out

    Hmmm... Lots of ideas, here are my thoughts so far. What kind of machine are you looking to exchange with? That might help narrow down the best solution. My ideas here are more general. Possibly - the functionality of each LT-to-Eth device can be different (one-to-one bridge, many-to-many...

    MicroQuadra!

    According to this (from http://www.vectronicsappleworld.com/profiles/69.html), the keyboard was the customer's choice at that time - they used an Extended II for the official photo shoot, but the customer could have chose any Apple keyboard available at the time.

    Boiling old plastics, De-Yellow, Regain Flexibility ??

    I haven't boiled, but I have a bit of a related story... I set out to clean up an LC-series lid that had various crayon/marker/scuff marks/etc on it - my approach was: 1. Goo Gone on marks, let soak 2. Rinse/scrub Goo Gone in running hot water with sponge 3. Thoroughly wash entire case with...

    Appletalk between IIc and Classic II

    Or the IIe with an Apple II Workstation Card - which, unfortunately, will not help on a IIc either...

    Need help pointing to strange video problem on SE/30

    > :( Seriously?? The man puts huge effort into what has become both a very needed warning and valuable resource, and you whine about clutter?? Whilst yourself offering very little of value?? As far as I'm concerned, the "Caps!" threads should be stickied -- but that's not my call to...

    SE video signal from motherboard to CRT

    Exactly - that wiring harness is for both power to the logic board, and video from the logic board to the analog board.

    Schematics - Mac IIsi and others

    In this case, the author of the schematics still has direct commercial interest - he is selling them himself actively at the link posted above by bbraun...

    The Definitive Guide to Connecting your SE/30

    I thought the SE/30 had a built-in 68882 FPU on the logic board? My impression is that the FPU socket on SE/30 expansion cards are there for use in the IIsi which doesn't even have an FPU socket on the logic board.

    Macintosh LC III Overclocking, 25Mhz to:===>33Mhz

    Oh really? So does that mean this method ends up changing the Gestalt ID? What shows up in About This Macintosh? LC III or LC III+?

    Out-of-business sale conquests

    Yeah I'm in the same boat... 40 minute drive (with no traffic) to nowhere near where I need to be, my weekend is packed, and weeknights there's traffic to contend with... Argh!

    Out-of-business sale conquests

    Hey I saw that ad, want to go since it's nearby but it's out of the way and I have a busy weekend going on... What's left in terms of lizza boxes and beige powermacs? Have they had much interest?

    Does Apple II actually use -12v rail from PSU?

    According to several sources (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disk_II#UniDisk_5.25.22_and_Apple_5.25_Drive and Google your way around the rest...), Disk II controllers and Apple 5.25 drive (Or UniDisk 5.25) controllers are completely compatible. Conversion cables exist in both directions...

    Autograph/signed case value

    From my relatively small sample size, having seen the insides of 15-20 SE's, I'd say it's about 50% that are signed. Certainly not "OMG SUPER RARE L@@K STEVE JOBS C-2 AUTOGRAPHED!!!", but special enough that my "I'm keeping this one" SE is signed.
