I contact Thomas Andrews exclusively via Facebook Messenger and I never have issues reaching him.

I see what you wrote in that other forum today, and you handled it nicely. 👍 I never tried to contact Thomas on your behalf only because I assumed he would reply to you, but do let me know if you ever want to persue his services because I can reach out to him about your contact attempt.

In the Resource section, I cannot find the "Mac Classic & SE" book that I linked in my previous post, but I do see these "related" PDFs... https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/apple-technical-procedures-macintosh-se-and-macintosh-se-30.66/...

I saw you were getting hassled in “that other forum” today. Some people are in serious need of tact. Just wanted to follow-up to see if Thomas Andrews worked out.

The BU406 (Q2) mounted to the metal cage is the usual suspect. Could be CR2 as well. See pages 51-52 in the following Larry Pina book: https://archive.org/details/macclassicse00larr/page/51/mode/1up?view=theater

What’s really interesting about this is that we all could simply change our date to 2040 today and see what happens. Full disclosure, even I haven’t done that yet. 😅

You might want to check with Luke to see if either his listing or his choice of DF2 diodes is in error because right now it's the same as the stock diode: In other words... Because the stock DF2 diode normally doesn't burn, replacing it with the same exact low-wattage 0.5W part gets you...

Thomas Andrews owns Amiga of Rochester and is on the East Coast: https://amigaofrochester.com/about-us/ I paid him to fully clean, recap and do trace repairs on a 5126 Backlit Macintosh Portable, and he is well known in the community. He attends VCF shows too. On that form page, choose General...

Well, darn. I'm not using any VPN and I got the 403 today while doing nothing other than entering PACMAN in the search field and initiating the search. Clicking on the "fix this problem yourself" link yields this error screen... I then switched to Firefox to try it there, but upon trying...

I install them exclusively in my SE and SE/30 machines, so I’m well aware of their low noise benefits. But I’ve never installed four in the same machine, hence my question. Furthermore, except for the noise of the hard drive, those CRT iMacs are pretty silent, and therefore, you would more...

So because the motherboard remains powered, any software that can remain running while also keeping the screen 100% black could benefit from this, right? Few will probably use an SE or SE/30 as a server, but I'm just curious if that is one example use case that may see a nice...

Fantastic idea! QUESTIONS: 1. If I open Photoshop 1.0, 4.0, etc., create a 100% black screen and display that full screen for more than 3 seconds, does your device kill the Analog Board? 2. How long (approximately) does it take for the sweep circuitry to stabilize? What's the typical "wake...

How loud are those four fans going at once, and are you using the LNA to reduce RPMs and noise?

Mine was especially warm on the right side, due to the hot degaussing component there. But even though I couldn’t feel the same level of heat on the left side, I can only imagine how hot that DL22 diode was getting.

Beyond the novelty of having an Amber CRT inside a compact Mac, how do you folks like them? Would you describe the picture as being "easier on the eyes" or "just different"?

I'm posting back in this thread today not only to give @phipli praise once again for his incredible work on the 475 Overclock software solution 👏, but I also want to update all of you 475 Overclock users about the impressive work forum member @frontein1 has done (and continues to do) in boosting...

We've already talked about RAM and VRAM in this thread, but I am replying back again today to say you (and one with an LC575 motherboard) should buy not only 60ns VRAM, but also a 60ns or faster RAM SIMM too because of the incredible work @frontein1 has accomplished today...

And for those who don't already know, the product page is found here: https://maceffects.com/products/inner-bezel-for-slot-loading-imac-g3-w-plastic-tabs

Holy cow! All the numbers are improved across the board! I'm going to tag @YMK because he is the creator of Synchr030/S which is an accelerated PDS RAM card for the SE/30. I'm also going to tag @Willj and @Jockelill who I know are following your incredible work.

Here you are...
