    Backlit Portable 5126 — Is your backlight this dim?

    Have you thought about doing an LED CCFL replacement mod, rather than messing with old CCFL's? I know this is the wrong size, but they do make them for smaller screens: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/295196267562 For further watching, oh look, its a Sharp LQ series LCD used on powerbooks:

    Cracked Hinge on Mac Portable

    I wonder if @Stephen may be able to assist, recently in the discord server he showed some 3d printed metal hinges... May be possible to model these and have new ones printed?

    Dell R520 - The expansion continues...

    First official C64 in 36 years

    Rob did a fantastic job of the clones. It's because of his work with the A500++ project that led me into learning sprint layout, and later the reloaded boards...

    PSU for SE & SE/30 trips breaker on 240VAC?
