Got the MacEffects keyboard installed. For anyone wondering if it's compatible with the BMOW drive switcher, the answer is yes. If you have the drives swapped so the internal drive is drive 2, you just need to switch to slot 6 drive 2 in the keyboard software when reprogramming the keyboard...

Hope this doesn't derail the thread, but I love the signed and graded comics on-display! Here's some of mine...no desk picture because my desk is currently a disaster 😬

I just ordered the MacEffects keyboard...no more mushy hairpin switches!

Love those old cocktail cabinets! Here's mine that I built back in 2007ish...it's a MAME cabinet, so not really a "restoration". I bought a Midway cabinet from a local arcade and kept the original art for simplicity. Just built a custom control panel and made a matching overlay for it...

I had a great time at VCFMW! I was hoping to come back with less stuff than I brought...that did *not* happen :LOL: Finally got my hands on the A2 RGB monitor I've always wanted but would never risk shipping:

Not sure mine was "broken", but I took it apart to retrobrite anyways, so I recapped it and gave it a once-over while I had it apart since I'd prefer to never take it apart again. It sounds dumb, but first thing to check would be the composite jacks on both the A2 and the monitor. They're often...

I'm just curious if the attached image works for either of your Classics with a BlueSCSI connected internally. I had similar issues about a year ago with my Classic and it turned out to be the SCSI driver that was being used. I never tried connecting my BlueSCSI externally at the time though...

I'm going for my first time this year.

I recently got an Old Net WIFI modem and just got it working with one of the Executives using myterm. Most of the work was getting the downloaded myterm binary copied over serial to the Osborne (getting the serial port configured right, converting to hex, converting back to a binary on the...

I got an Osborne 1 awhile back that I just finished restoring. Here it is next to one of its Executive brethren right after I got it home. It mostly worked, though the B drive was hit-or-miss and it was just really filthy and yellowed. I also didn't want to run it too much before getting...

So an official BlueSCSI 1.1 firmware was just released that includes @jokker 's changes to support this CMS card. I flashed it and was able to get my //e booting ProDOS off of a 32MB volume :) Then I set about trying to add termination power to the CMS card so the BlueSCSI wouldn't have to...

Here's mine:

Yes, there's a TTL buffer board in the middle. I didn't assemble my own board(s) like you did. I bought pre-assembled boards from Aaron at Retro Hack Shack. So I got the 12bpp RGBtoHDMI board, the TTL buffer board, and the analog board in case I ever want to play with that.

This thread was a huge help getting my own RGBtoHDMI up and running...what to buy, finding a Pi Zero, printing a case...thanks!

After finding external video adapters in both my Classic and SE, I've been wanting to build an RGBtoHDMI. Well, I finally got my hands on a Pi Zero and all the other parts, printed a case, and assembled one. @Mu0n 's stickied thread was a big help. My 030 Classic came to me with this...

I installed the CP/M card and BMOW drive switcher and can now boot from an external floppy drive, including a FloppyEMU: I'm having trouble tracking down a compatible version of WordStar. I did use cpmtools to copy the binary of WordStar 3.3 I have for my Osborne Executive to a CP/AM...

This is a catalog of Applied Engineering Apple peripherals from 1986.

This is the user's manual for the Applied Engineering Z-80c CP/M card for the Apple IIc.

Monitor is recapped, retrobrighted, and working great: I initially had an issue with the external brightness knob being unreponsive (could still adjust the internal sub-brightness), but that quickly got sorted out with some help from people on Discord. Turns out the brightness potentiometer...
