Eleanor's sitting proudly on its customized, primo spot the AppleDisplayUnit™ . . . . . . but with the Portable's lid open you can't see the worm logo on its NASA property tag. 😐 edit: TEASE! :ROFLMAO:

WOW! Nice thread, but could use a bit of refinement? "Holy Grail" would be the unattainable or near-unobtanium: quest for the real deal - Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. "Eleanor" would be the object of insane desires, but something one might actually get their hands on: Gone in Sixty...

You really know you love your LCIII when you replace the 4MB onboard memory chips with 8MB replacements. Runs faster than those very cool sneakers. Nice! :D

Here's the one that rocks my mechanical KBD loving world in pre-ADB beige: Here's the new playstation under construction with the Drexel branded Plus and beige goodness: Posting this because my Platinum ADB version is stored away while I rebuild the old setup without the tall bookcase...

I have the KBD from the IIgs on hand for fiddling with equipment. Great feel/tiny footprint on the bench. Like as not I use the AppleDesign for its very long straight cable on my KVM setup. It's not nearly as bad a folks make it out to be, but not all that great either. NOT a fan of the AEKs...

Can't tell you how much I'm impressed by both your design and installation throughout. I spent a couple of years dong Kitchen Design in a Big Box and can only think of one suggestion for you. Being an inveterate tinkerer/sometimes professional in many related fields including the design and...

Thanks, that's what brought my notions back closer to the fire. :) Took one glance again and now am wondering how flexible the thinnest single sided PCB might be if cut in a comb pattern dividing pads for flex-contact up along IC legs with RA Headers installed in the thruholes pointing...

Never thought of that. 🤔 I have a beautiful set of Japanese pull saws for that kind of detailed work. But it's a rough cut kinda thing, an extension to the wood/plastic/metalworking power tool bench sitting opposite under the two corner windows of my apartment's living room. You can see one of...

Very curious to see the differentiation between the two cards. Given the info I posted, I'm willing to bet at least a nickel that the 2x5 header is single bit resolution over an EGA connection as mentioned in that product intro article. 🤔 https://old.pinouts.ru/Video/EGA_pinout.shtml

Might that be the one mentioned in a thread over at the MLA? ISTR the designer saying it was a one use kinda deal at the time. I posted that first pic over where that was mentioned. Like I said, nice community project?

I like to keep mine close at hand in the work areas. These are stacked nicely behind the two sided, tucked under the shelves general purpose workstation. Front side looks better, now it's a neat lineup of compacts across the front, a couple tucked behind along with a baby Pavilion. Pics...

Been a bit, but just ransacked my MLA pics archive. This is what needs replacing with something more workable for the 10cm Square PCB era/card development era. That was a wonderful, fairly mass produced kluge at the time, but not doable in a short run in this day and age. Besides, it was a...

More info from p.44 of the 2019 archive I did of my MLA attachments.***** So those connectors may not be what you had though? Treat the center section of that 2x8 header as a VGA HD15 breakout to see if the stars align? Don't recall the issue date of that article, but the year of Lapis...

Let's start with this curiosity? I see what looks like an ISA Standard Cable for a Multifunction I/O Card's breakout, but it's not and it's seemingly very strange. Don't recall a DE-9 cable hookup with 11 IDC signal lines implemented . . . ever? 10th pin on header is for D-Shell ground...

How about posting a pic of your card here for this Whiskey Tango Foxtrot degubbing session? Which version card(s) do your guys have? I now clearly see two and three interface header connector types on the two prototype setups. So many puzzles here . . . playtime! 🤪

Revised edition answer: Any Control Panel for multiple displays for SE and earlier Compacts pre-7 will be third party IIRC. TLDR: Going through the thread I picked up on that bit I had addressed, but a little context never hurts? Radius developed the first version of such a control panel for...

Congratulations, great to see it coming to life! :)

Sorry, visual thinker here, so sillyscope experimentation results and conventional shematic diagraming only compute with much too much effort if and when they do in my noggin. I can "see" the I/O flow of systems, but it's more like a plumbing/hydraulics blueprint the way I process things...

That would be the answer to my question, which was badly put. Looked, but didn't see a picture or diagram of the PCB with the physical location of the connector types labeled last night. I was the one who suggested the Extron Scaler. ;) TTL would need to be converted to an analog signal, no...

Which connector are you using there? That's an analog signal? That's the funkiest looking thing I've ever seen using that scaler?
