Nice score. If I remember correctly, the S-video cables are pinned differently than the ADB cables, though. Might be safer to mask off the metal parts of the connectors on a 590-0616 ADB cable, then use black plastidip to change the color of that cable to match the MacTV. Otherwise, for a...

For me, probably the IIgs upgrade kit machine I sold for $150 in 1995. Even though I wasn't using it much anymore. If I had the storage space, I probably would've stored it away and brought it with me when we moved from our previous house to our current house.

Same with my 242 Turbo. Back in the day, it was a quick car. Now, it's one of the slower ones. And, like your 300D, it's mostly mechanical. K-Jetronic fuel injection (same setup used in the gas Benzes of the 1980s, but less electronic), so only chips are in the fuel pump relay and in the...

I think you'd like them a lot, especially once they're installed. Got the Volvo version on my car. Large improvement over the stock lamps it had (granted it also had the small rectangular 4x6 headlamps when I got it. Yeah, NM seems to be an area where I wouldn't expect much fog. Re: the rack...

^That could work. Even though I'd personally keep it red - less work involved, since the door jambs and underhood areas don't have to be resprayed. I would definitely consider swapping to the european composite E-code headlamps, though. Gives the car a more unique appearance, as well as...

I'd be tempted to leave it the stock color. That dark red does look classy, even though it does make the car a little hotter than a light color does. With respect to licensing, it does qualify for NM's horseless carriage plates, or, alternatively, 1985 vintage plates, on collector...

It's faded silver. It's going to be sprayed properly in Volvo code 19 "Diplomat Black" paint, so it'll match the rest of the car. I will, however, leave the underside of the hood silver, that way I'll have more light underhood for working on it, especially if I'm on the side of the road at...

1982 Volvo 242 Turbo. Bought it from a friend's brother in 2016 for $500. Been fixing it up ever since. Mechanically, it's pretty much where I want it. Cosmetically, needs some rust repair being that it was a NY car for many years before heading west to Washington state. Also needs paint...

^Yep. Either a PlatPlus or a regular SE would be best... For an SE, I'd probably go with a FDHD or SuperDrive model. That way, it does have some forward compatibility, while still being able to run software that'll run on a 128K (barring those pieces of software that *must* run on a 128K...

@eric Sure, not a problem.

Apparently was too buggy for Apple to introduce it with the IIsi, LC, and Classic machines. So, it's extremely rare. I haven't tried to run it on a machine yet. Need to make some floppies of it, then I'll try it out on either the SE or the IIci.

Chris, Got any zip drives lying around? That might be the best way to go, since it seems like your 190's floppy drive may need some work, hence the reason why the VST drive can't read floppies initialized on the 190 and vice versa. Wouldn't need to use the ethernet card.

I do see that Surplus & Sales does have a Mac/IIgs printer cable available. Interestingly enough, the brand name has some connection to a virus we've been dealing with for over two years... lol

Allows the 33MHz 68040 I got from @k24a1 to run at its full speed, instead of at 25MHz. The resistor at R151 is removed and a resistor is added at R152 on the bottom of the board.

Likewise. I've owned pretty much everything I ever dreamed of owning when I was younger. Settled on a SE dual FDHD (er, SuperDrive) for my 68000 desires, a IIci for my '030 needs, a Centris 650 (that will eventually become a Quadra 650 once a resistor is removed and a different resistor is...

I'd see if I could find a SCSI cable from an 8600 or a 9600 that's being parted out... It'll have a lot of connectors on it, but it'll be more reliable, IMO. I bought one for my B&W G3 from a used computer reseller (RE-PC in the Seattle area). Am using it with an Adaptec 29160N SCSI card...

Another thing, if you move the AB to LB harness at all, does it restart? The harness in my SE has some wires that look to be damaged. If I move it into a certain position, sometimes it'll just stop, either freezing, displaying a checkerboard, or nothing at all. Normally that would be a sign...

^Should be about two minutes. My IIci takes about a minute and 48 seconds to show video.

If I remember correctly, most iMacs used the 3.5" SATA drives, so, you can run anything that a pre-2013 Mac Pro uses. Back in 2020, I bought a 1TB spinner for my 2008 Mac Pro for ~$35. Is the one item I still have from that computer. Will be going into the 2009 Mac Pro 4,1 I'm picking up next...
