    Where can I buy 128MB SE/30 RAM?

    I got the SIMMs I used to upgrade my IIci to 128MB off the 'bay. Cost was around $80, plus shipping, and the dreaded sales tax. Brand new memory.

    Kitchen demo & remodel

    We have the same faucet here at our place. Just a heads up about it... Sometimes, it will dribble out the spray holes, instead of just using the aerator. If I depress on the switch that goes between the two modes, it will usually stop dribbling for a bit. Sometimes helps to also depress the...

    iivi No Chime, No Video, Recapped and working Power supply….Help?

    Yup, pretty much. Just have to add the slot for the SIMM, then program one and drop it in. -J

    iivi No Chime, No Video, Recapped and working Power supply….Help?

    You can add a ROM SIMM slot, then use what I was recommending. The solder pads are there.

    Mac Plus floppy drive not happy

    They work pretty well. Eject motor is a little louder than it normally would be, but, at ieast the disks eject properly again. Installed one in my Centris 650's floppy drive's eject motor assembly.

    iivi No Chime, No Video, Recapped and working Power supply….Help?

    ^It should work. Not sure which chips you'd need, though. If the ROM SIMM socket is installed, you could get away with one of @dougg3's SIMMs, programmed with the ROM dump files you found.

    What Beige Apple ADB keyboards/mice am I missing?

    Looks like Eric has a M3501 (the AEK II), just doesn't have it pictured. Instead, his M0115 is shown.

    Joe's Mac Racks

    Nice setup. I haven't gone there yet. For a while, had a Mac/Apple II closet, back when I had the 2012 conquest, but am now down to a closet shelf where my C650 is currently residing, while it waits for a replacement eject motor for its floppy drive, and the Mac table, which is where my...

    Mac Plus floppy drive not happy

    That does sound like the ZTS isn't lined up correctly. I would crack the case open again, take the drive out of its bracket, then place it on something that's not metal, so it doesn't provide a dead short when the power switch is on. While the computer is powered up, loosen the screw for the...

    Mac Plus floppy drive part

    Yes, you may have to. All three of my Macs needed to have the adjustment taken care of, even though the sensor was never moved by someone prior to my servicing the drives. The eject problem, might be a board issue - I do have one drive in an A9M0106 external case that will not operate an...

    Mac Plus floppy drive part

    This may also be somewhat pertinent after the drive is assembled again. https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/superdrive-floppy-maintenance.549/ Might need to adjust the zero track sensor as well, as described in the above thread.

    Macintosh 512k restore

    Nice. At least now you know what needs to be done to use the later 590-0167 cable with a black label 800K or a 400K drive.

    If the nubus slots are dead on any of the boards you're working on, follow @pfuentes69's advice and replace the 74ALS240 chip below C16 with a new one. Here's his thread: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/problem-with-iici-and-nubus-cards-solved.317/ -J

    Ultrasonic cleaner appears to have killed my Quadra 650 board....

    Yep. the 650 boards have both. Same with the speaker headers. I'll have to look at my 650 when I reinstall the hard drive into it and see for sure, but I think the ROM simm slot on it is empty, so it's running on the onboard ROM chips.

    Ultrasonic cleaner appears to have killed my Quadra 650 board....

    Most 650/800 boards I've come across have had the heatsink that clips onto the socket. I once received a base model Quadra 650 board (4MB RAM, no ethernet, and a 33MHz 68LC040) that had the other style heatsink that clips onto the chip itself. @lobust If you want your Q800 to think it's a...

    Power Mac 6500/250

    Cool. Glad it's working. Battery-wise, I'd be tempted to wire up a triple AAA holder and mount it somewhere away from the board. That way, you can use more common batteries to get the 4.5 volts necessary and not have to worry about the stock 4.5 volt alkaline battery deciding to let its acid...
