The Mac IIsi I have came with a network card. What I'm trying to do is get it to either work with my DHCP router, or at least let me configure the network address. The only reference I can find is this page: http://www.simonstl.com/projects/tcpip/mac/mactcp.html Unfortunately, when I follow...

I have several Macs ranging from Mac 512K to Mac IIvx. Only a few of them have working SCSI drives and I have no actual disks. What I would like to do is install my Blue SCSI in them (I may build several if this works out well). So I'm looking for a place to download various systems, apps...

I'm sorry if I am way OT here. Last year, I designed a 65C02 computer and had some boards made.  It worked very well and I was very happy. My next move was to design his 16-bit big brother using a 65C816.  Seemed like a logical choice (still is, really). However, there was something pulling...

So I just bought a (new to me) Macintosh 512K for $60 (USD).  It came with the 512K (dur), keyboard (original), mouse (IIc mouse) and 400K external floppy drive.  Oh, and a non-Apple bag to carry it all in. The computer has a small crack in the case on the top-right but I think I can eventually...

Will the Apple Mouse IIc work on a Mac 512K without any adapters or conversions? I finally have one and I may swap it out between my IIc computer and my new 512K. Thanks!

I just got a 512K Mac with keyboard, mouse, external floppy and carrying case for $60.  I'm very excited. :-) Other than having SEVERE yellowing, there's a 1" or so crack wrapping around the top-right of the case.  On the front bezel (not the main case). So, any ideas on how to fix that?  I...

When I boot my SE/30, I get a screen with horizontal stripes.  Nothing else.  No beeps, either. First thing I did was recap the logic board.  I believe I did a good job but I can double check (even though I've triple checked already). Tonight I replaced UE8 (74LS166) with a new one.  Actually...

It looks like I have am empty Mac Classic case.  The inside frame was corroded beyond repair.  So it's literally the front panel and back case.   So, other than an aquarium, what do you guys recommend I do with that case?  I never get into the whole emulator or RPi setup but since the case is...

OK, so back in January (2017) I bought a Macintosh Classic on eBay for $12.75.  Picture showed a checkerboard screen.  But the user said "for parts".  So I thought for $12.75 (and only $12 to ship!) what the heck... So I get the Mac and it was in rough shape.  The seller actually just put it in...

I know this topic comes up a lot.  But my SE/30 is having issues. Known problems: 1) Horizontal stripes (nothing else) 2) No audio at all 3) Heavily corroded. Here is what I've done: 1)  Cleaned as much green corrosion as I possibly could with vinegar, scrubbing, IPA, etc.  No noticeable...

I have this Mac SE/30 that was in pretty bad shape.  I'm going to recap it hopefully soon. But after really looking close, I'm seeing this green "fuzz" all over the place.  Pretty much every where a capacitor was, a nearby chip has the corrosion all over the pins.   I'm really wondering if...

I just received a nice IIvx. I'm just starting to collect the II series and my first hurdle is video. Is there a video card (Nubus I suppose?) that will allow me to use my IIvx with a standard cheapo VGA LCD monitor? Standard VGA is good enough for me. Thanks!

Hello all.  First time poster. I have a Macintosh SE FDHD that will not eject a floppy disk.  I was able to format one disk so I think the drive works but when ejecting them, they get stuck.  So I have to use the manual way. Are there any tutorials for cleaning and lubricating those drives?  ...
