Hey all. I purchased a Mac Plus keyboard, and it happened to come with a mouse and 4mb Mac Plus. :) Completely unexpected was a "MacFan" in the top of the unit. It appears that the whole thing was sitting in an attic box for a l-o-n-g time because it took a lot of strength to slide it off, and...
Hi all. Looking for info on external speakers that were made to connect to the Mac Plus/512 series. I was thinking I could find some historical info on aftermarket items that match the color and form factor, but googling for "mac plus speakers" doesn't exactly give the results I need. :)
I'm...
Wow, Mr. Pigeon. That is great info. Thanks! I am looking to 3d print or otherwise find a box/case to put next to the Mac to hold Floppy Emu and Raspberry Pi, want it to all look matching. Much appreciated.
What is the official color code (is that a Pantone number?) of the Mac 128/512k/Plus? Looking to 3D print a case/holder that will sit next to the Mac, and want the colors to match. I have seen it called "beige" and "putty" but wondering about the specific code for realistic match.
Or is there...
Hi. I'm coming in w-a-a-a-a-y late on this. I have a 4mb Mac Plus and a Raspberry Pi. I would love to get the Mac to display some fun things like weather/time/etc in a screen saver, with data gated/synced via the Pi. What do I need to get started? Please excuse my lack of clue. I went through...
Hi all. While I was a ][ user starting in 1980, I missed the classic/compact Mac era. So now I am coming around and reading All of The Things (TM) when it comes to the Mac Plus, and it seems like the need for a fan is 50-50 in what I have seen, with many saying that the air flow was never good...
Being quiet and cool is a must. At the risk of sacrilege, does anyone think there would be appreciable benefit to cutting a 2 inch hole in the back of the case near the "dead air midpoint" and putting a grill over the hole (to keep cat paws out)? Looking at a video from I think it could be done...
eBay seems to be full of money gougers/opportunists when it comes to retro items, so I'm hoping I can find someone "in the family" as my first choice. I'm open to using eBay as a secondary alternative.
Hey all. Looking for any place that sells (putty/beige) Mac Plus keyboards or mice or 4mb upgrades, I acquired one without any input. Would rather not do eBay. Actually if the keyboard is from a 512/128 that would be better since there is no number pad and would be more compact on the desk. I do...
As paulhagstrom.1921 mentioned, that content belonged to a very long-time giant in the Apple II community. It would be great for the community and maybe the family for a benevolent buyer (quick somebody call Richard Garriott?) to get it all and catalog it and then use it or distribute it. This...
