I’ll just throw my two cents in here. The instructions here are a bit outdated, but they work well. http://mac128.com/

This could also be useful with your setup. http://68kmac.com/Mac128/Mac_128_Update/Entries/2007/9/1_Formatting_800K_MFS_Disks_With_64K_ROMs.html

It's amazing. All of this was discussed and discovered on these very forums over a decade ago. But it appears the search function for the archive of posts from that time has been disabled? I guess I've been gone too long. Sad that so much useful information has to be rediscovered. But then...

You don't need an OS X virtual machine, what works better is something like a Mac OS emulator like Basilisk II, or SheepShaver for Windows.  There's a few tutorials here, geared toward a Mac, but they will give you the idea: http://www.mac128.com

I thought the issue was that you couldn't write to it? As I recall, Apple had a means for reading the contents from the drive to copy your files off of it from an SE, but not to continue writing to the drive.

No worries ... Have just seen this misnomer perpetrated for far too long. Here's another breakdown that covers the transition. http://68kmac.com/Mac128/Mac_128_Update/Entries/2007/1/2_The_%22Classic%22_Macintosh.html

Need to nip this one in the bud. There is no "Snow White" color. That refers to the name of a design language created by Hartmut Esslinger. The Apple // was beige, but the Apple //c was a color called "fog" which also marked the debut of the Snow White design language. The Mac was only ever...

This may help ... Formatting 800K MFS Disks With 64K ROMs There are numerous threads discussing this as well, but doing a search doesn't seem to pull them up for some reason. 

Very surprising. On a related note I just checked eBay prices on Mac 128ks and they seem to be selling for record low prices. Entire systems with original box and packaging selling for less than $1,000. Working units selling for $200. And now 128ks in the trash. What's going on here? Are people...

I knew I had done a mock up like this ... obviously mine essentially reduces the current iMac design down to a 128K Compact Mac size, which I would be just as happy with as the mock-up design being discussed in this thread, and would have far fewer balancing issues. It essentially achieves the...

Well one problem I see immediately is there's no way to machine the channels to run the wiring to the power cable. I also don't like the idea that the FaceTime camera, speakers and mic are located in the slot. And why make the the entire thing generally taller than the original? And the angles...

Congrats! That didn't take you long!

e-mail Eric Rasmussen on his site. There's nothing on that site he hasn't personally confirmed himself. From your initial list you are not accounting for the 240V Plus. This is it.

Are you replying to me? I'm not talking about motherboards ... you say there are no M0001APs yet there are ...  This is worth a read if you haven't previously seen it: https://68kmla.org/forums/index.php?/topic/13990-those-more-rare-compact-variants/

Most Apple printers will work with the 128K as long as it's supported by System 2.0/Finder 4.1. The LaserWriter 7 driver from System 6.0.8 is compatible all the way back, so there's a benchmark by which to guess which printers should work. Most were not serial protocol, per se, but rather...

This is a helpful link as well ... http://www.earlymacintosh.org It's going to be different for every revised software release. If you haven't considered it, part numbers are going to become a factor in whether your boxed set is matched and dated or just a collection of random parts...

If the board only needs to be compatible and you're not looking for a finished machine, then you can use any board from the 128K through MacPlus without changing the connector. The SE logic board is also compatible, but you will need to re-wire using an SE connector. The reverse is true for the...
