Yeah, I noticed that one yesterday at some point looking through auctions.  The missing nuts I wouldn't think much about, since I've had some come out over time,  but that case is interesting. Especially that "Macintosh Performa" looks to be screen printed, and then below it "Performa 475" looks...

While we're on the subject of crappily packed eBay Macs,  I've been fortunate on the couple that I've bought over the years(a Performa 410 last year, and a 12" RGB monitor a couple of years ago,  both were packed pretty well),  but this reminds me of like 12 years ago, a dude had a Powerbook...

JTAG isn't just Macbook(or even apple) specific.  it's basically a protocol to test/program/verify circuit boards,  so it could be something for an laptop, desktop, iPhone, mouse, monitor.  Basically any PCB with a microcontroller on it

A while ago I swapped the CRT in one of my SEs with a amber one(from a piece of medial equipment of some sort) to move the original CRT to my SE/30 with screen burn in, and it had the same issue with the anode being on the wrong side/the pins being upside down.  I ended up just extending the...

in another thread a few people said that it could cause the CRT to implode

I didn't read the full thread so idk if you tried this or not, but can you ping A2server? open command prompt, type "ping a2server" and see if it responds with anything If not, log into your router, see if you can find DHCP Leases, and find the one for the a2server. Once you find that...

I don't like keeping batteries in my compact Macs due to the potential to leak(plus I have like, 10 of them, and that's alot of batteries), but I've noticed the mouse speed doesn't stay between reboots, so I imagine it's a PRAM setting.  Is there any software or extension or whatever that will...

Been a dry couple of months.  A couple of days ago I ordered a BMOW Floppy Emu which will make getting data to/from my 800k machines easier. Also I ordered a box of tractor-feed paper from a local seller on ebay that I'll be picking up at some point this week probably, so I can use print-shop...

Not really related to the current topic, but I finally bit the bullet and ordered a FloppyEmu yesterday.  Figure I mess around with floppy-only Macs and Apple II's enough to justify the cost

Awesome find!  Glad it made its way to a collector rather than a landfill. The book "Revolution In The Valley" is all about the making of the original Macintosh, written by much of the team,  most of which has been posted to folklore.org,  so here's a relevent story about them switching from...

I have a GS I got...at some point that I don't remember?(In a lot of Macs or something I think), but haven't done much with it besides remove the battery.  It does have a SCSI interface card in it, so I should pull it out and start playing with it

I installed one in my SE/30's floppy drive last week, and the quality seems pretty good,  alot cheaper than  that other ebay seller too

I did that a few days ago on mine too!

Those look fantastic!  I've been needing to pull out my SE/30 to diagnose an issue with the floppy controller, and this is going to help a ton vs the old schematics.

Looks good now, thanks!

The folder says to request access, not sure if you intended it that way or if you meant to make it publicly viewable

Nice find! Congrats!

Same here
