I'm back in business after replacing the EMM board again. I only have 1 working one left, and 2-3 dead ones. :/

Yeah, they are a hassle .. but I can’t let go of the portability :) I also leave them in but check them every few weeks. I probably should leave them out but even then, I think the EMM still consumes energy so it’s still an issue. I took apart my battery. Everything looks fine inside but the...

Ugh!!! Going to open up my AA pack a little later today.

I check my laptops every few weeks to ensure the batteries haven't gone down to 0V. Found my 540c wouldn't boot last night. My Sanyo "A" pack was down to 0. But the pack was fine and it recharged and it's holding charge. My "AA" pack however is not responding. It's not detected in either...

I had been under the impression that all the Duos share the same keyboard but given I have only played with a 280c, I cannot be sure of that. Maybe @3lectr1cPPC knows?

So awesome!! and those traces are so tiny! Congrats! 👏

I didn’t like how if I caught the key at the wrong angle, it wouldn’t register a press which massively increased the amount of typos. And one of the keys just stopped working again even after using a conductivity pen on the trace.

Teaser.... 🤫

Nah, kudos go to @croissantking. :) I'm just following in his footsteps.

Watch from 39:11 (39 minutes and 11 seconds into the video). He specifically mentions what you can do if you have stretched out the heads so that they are no longer against the media. Fairly common mistake that's made while attempting to clean the heads.

Ah, didn’t even consider that it would issues parsing beyond the relevant chunk at the beginning. Thanks!

I just got the same card (as @unity) from @techstep yesterday. Unfortunately I currently don't have a means to test it since my only SE/30 has @zigzagjoe 's LCD kit in (ie. the CRT tube and everything, analog board, etc are all removed and packed away somewhere) and the video card for the LCD...

I still don‘t get it. Why not just upload your findings to Macintosh Garden, like everyone else?
