    Macintosh PortraitDisplay Recap and Geometry Adjustments

    I thought the rounded corner disappears when you have multiple displays and that edge/corner is where another display extends the desktop?

    Green Tint on VGA CRT Monitor Connected to Macintosh IIx

    There is a control panel named Gamma which might help. It’s not Apple’s, it’s aftermarket. I think it’s on Macintosh Garden. It does look like this is the sync signal on green. I have also seen a version of this where sync signals over RGB cause certain displays to lose contrast (Appear washed...

    Macintosh PortraitDisplay Recap and Geometry Adjustments

    The Apple 8*24 card will also drive it. I believe the on board video on a IIci worked for me as well.

    Kensington Turbo Mouse 5.0 Replacement Trackball — Pool Ball? 57.15mm/2.25in?

    Yes, it is a 2.25” standard regulation size billiard ball. I have been using one in mine for a while. But I did find that the one I got was so polished it was slipping on the rollers. I washed it with soap thinking it might be some oil but that didn’t help. I ended up using a blank piece of...

    Color CRT that fits in Macintosh SE FDHD?

    I tried this for a 16" Macintosh Color Display and I got scratches / rub marks on the acrylic from the screen during forming. I ended up building a jig to bend the 5mm thick acrylic I was using. This was to put a 15" LCD panel inside the 16" Macintosh Color Display housing. This reminds me...

    Color CRT that fits in Macintosh SE FDHD?

    There is someone on Etsy selling acrylic lenses for these compact Macs to put in front of an LCD. It works with @zigzagjoe ‘s kit and works with others - this seller also had an LCD kit at one point (although not nearly as complete or turn key like @zigzagjoe ’s kit) that works with standard vga...

    3D Printing & MacEffects Appreciation

    Well, I could have been totally unlucky :) possible I got a bad batch or something. But I did see afterwards there were a lot of reviews on Amazon complaining about the same issue. Go figure.

    Oh, you found those? :) That was before I gave up on the extensions. I think I had a variant for the Quadra Nubus slot covers also. But it was made specifically for the black plastic piece on the extension I purchased. I don't think those plastic pieces are universal in size.

    When you say "rightmost edge", are you looking at that rectangle from inside the case or from in front of the case? It looks like you're saying right most as you look at it from inside the case but I want to confirm. If so, I'll shift it left (when looking at it from inside the case) by 1.5mm...
