    I bought two from amigakit in the end - pricey, but they work well and provide term power :)

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    I know Stephen Leary did a mass purchase of a lot of the KEL connectors, over on exxos forum, for the A1200 accelerators he was designing, I'll have a poke around!

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    The holy grail, at least for me! OK, how about the PDS connections for the Quadra machines? They look like KEL connectors like the Amiga uses.

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    The one i'd love to find is the CPU card slot for the x500/600 series.

    5v FPM DIMM's!

    These are getting surprisingly harder to find. Seriously, this haul of 4x64MB and 2 x 32MB DIMM's cost more than a 32GB DDR4 kit... But it'll be worth it! The extra 256MB is destined for my 9600, the other 64MB destined for the 7500. @Zane Kaminski - reckon you could make these with more...

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    As the title states, i'd like to compile a list of all the connectors used in Macs, and to do that, i'd like to ask anyone that has knowledge of a particular part number to add it here. Once i've got a list together, i'll make a sticky post in the relevant section. So far, from @trag we have...

    PowerMac G3 Personality Card - looking for 182 pin PERCH 90’ edge connector adapter

    Connector people are great! They still sell the 64-pin sockets for ROM's and IIfx RAM.

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    Use the PT Sans Caption for both light and dark, it's a nice easy to read font IMHO

    Sonnet Crescendo G3/400

    Not sure yet - I have my eye on a G4-500 for the 9600, but it's being sold as 'broken' despite chiming and will boot partially (hoping it's a PEBKAC issue, so i can grab it cheap!). If i get that, then this will probably end up in the 7500 - which then means i have a few other G3 cards going...

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    @Branchus , can we make the font consistent across themes?

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    A banner is definitely easy to implement, and an excellent suggestion!

    Sonnet Crescendo G3/400

    More Magneto Optical fun! This time, a Panasonic LF-3000E...

    This is part of a haul that included a Macintosh 8100/100AV and a 15" Sony Trinitron Monitor. It came with 5 x 128MB Cartridges, a cleaning cartridge and the manual and original SCSI cable. It's sooooo quiet compared to a ZIP drive, but about the same or slightly slower speed - 33MB took...

    USB Zip 250

    Except this seems to have trouble with disks....I can copy so much to a disk then it just seeks constantly and does nothing. Take the disk out, use in either of my other drives and it's fine... :/

    USB Zip 250

    From eBay, as a buy it now, with no less than 22 assorted zip disks, some even still sealed! Not bad for £45! Finally I can use my PC to transfer stuff!

    Logic Board - Macintosh Classic RAM Expansion

    So you've bought a dead mac classic. The logic board is bombed, and there's no expansion board inside. Or there was, and it, too, has incurred the wrath of Maxell. Well, you now know you can get a Macintosh Classic Reloaded board, at least, but what about the RAM expansion? Well - between...

    Power Macintosh 9600/300

    And the Radeon 7000 is now working in it! Huzzah! Just needed to do a CUDA reset and it worked first time - that was really confusing though, i'd forgotten that particular piece of arcane knowledge...
