    A takky Mac…..

    I watched the video with my wife from start to finish - was blown away by the quality of the work all around - was wondering if the outer case pieces would work in a real Mac Plus chassis...

    Macintosh Portable horror story

    Yeah China still doesn't like Japan from what happened in 1934...China uses that period to justify a lot of their behaviour.

    Where to get ZIP VRAM for NuBus Radius DirectColor video card

    Most DRAM in the same packaging are the same type of DRAM - JEDEC defined pinouts at least. Very few, if any RAM manufacturers choose to ignore the JEDEC standards.

    Where to get ZIP VRAM for NuBus Radius DirectColor video card

    Here are some - pricey though: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264261264395 These are a bargain for 3 pieces: https://shop.tvsat.com.pl/en_GB/p/3pcs-TC524256Z-10-1MBit-CMOS-Multiport-DRAM-ZIP28-TOSHIBA/21158 Looks like almost all 1mbit ZIP28 RAM is 256k x 4-bit multi port DRAM. OKI MSM514262...

    Logic Board - Macintosh SE Reloaded

    Hi Peter, I'm sorry I have no boards left, I gave up stocking them a while ago and deferred to Maceffects in the US as that's where 90% of the interest was for them (as you know not many macs in Europe by comparison). The latest version adds an extra pin header for an additional address line...

    I was taken advantage of by an internet confidence trickster.

As @Yoda points out above, TD has ZERO finances to fight any kind of legal case...

    Identifying and confirming fake 68040 CPUs (especially the L88M mask)

    I wonder if someone (*cough* @alxlab *cough*) would try and make a similar "socket blaster" to use the low voltage 040's in regular machines, as has been done for 486 machines

    My first Mystic is being mystical about working.

    Moving from the Lab's software section to compact macs, as this is nothing to do with software. Please can you be mindful of the categories your threads are being posted in.
