Mac Plus abuser

[Apostrophe]

This guy should know that using physical force on a Mac will do NOTHING to speed it up...

Er, are you sure thats the right video? I fast forwarded a few bits of it, but all I could see was a guy booting up a Plus and running some games on it.

What I find strange is that this was uploaded by the same guy that did that video of opening his Classic - I'm assuming you may dislike him for some reason, and are trying to badmouth his youtube videos here?

Oh, come on! I'm not nearly as immature as you seem to think. No, I hadn't realized that it was the same guy, but I distinctly saw him slapping the Plus near the middle of the video. Never mind, it was just a matter of small interest, but I assure you that I don't hold grudges against people who play games on Macs.

Serious LOL. Just the thread to brighten my day.

Yeah, smack that mac into submission. Just kidding. Seriously, if the connection to the analog board is loose, could smacking the side of the mac improve the picture?

Doh! EIther pin 1 on the analog -> logic board cable has a bad solder joint, or something is up with the two resistors involved in focus. That poor Plus needs care and convalesence, not abuse.

Yeah, smacking the right side of it will temporarily bring the picture back. Luckily my plus doesn't seem to have the picture problem.
