Seems more of a private hack job than something SONY would do because: (1) there is heat shrink on it (atypical for a factory build), and (2) capacitor leads ought not to be extended like that. The photos don’t show where both capacitor legs connect. And zooming in on the heat shrink in you...

Intel Mac users, here are the exact steps I use just now to get Eric's Intel Build Attachment to launch on my macOS Monterey 5K iMac: Launch Terminal Type the following WITH A SINGLE SPACE AT THE END: xattr -cr Switch to the Finder but keep your Terminal window in view. After decompressing...

The sheer amount of work that went into this project is stunning. What a beautiful result! This is genius level stuff, @Sideburn. You should be very proud of that accomplishment. Bravo! 👏

Atari 130xe laptop? Wow. Not an Atari guy at all, but I’d love to see a photo of your handiwork, either here or in our Atari sub-forum.

@Sideburn Prices be darned. Sales like your fully assembled kit have meaning. It just needs to get in front of more eyes. Because I recently bought a Pico Mac Nano and Maclock which I had planned to show in a forthcoming video, with your blessing I’d like to mention this thread and your video...

@Sideburn I kind of know how you feel. I put together a recent Yahoo auction for my employer in Japan of a complete G4 Cube system with 1.2GHz accelerator installed and tested, along with a clear mouse rebuilt by me (took 6 hours), cleaned keyboard (also took hours because it’s hard to open)...

@Sideburn I found your EBAY store here: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?&_ssn=sideburnstudios Just wanted to post the link so everyone has convenient access. Wow. I see you have not only the sticker sheets but a complete build of your Maclock conversion too!

Holy cow! That's a fantastic reproduction. You know, I just took delivery this week of my own Maclock from Aliexpress. I spent the last few weeks trying to find a vendor who still included the original Apple logo sticker sheet because most have stopped including it. Finally found a vendor...

Oh my, how lovely! I hate to admit it, but I have a huge number if 3.5" disks, but only two disk holders. Having an awesome-looking holder like that would really be neat. Looking forward to seeing the final holder after painting and with logo affixed!

After watching the two videos by @KennyPowers , I was just wondering if there would be a way to make the background dead space (all four sides, outside the game area) be black rather than white? I must admit that I've been so busy lately, I've not had time to try it out myself yet, but I've...

Privately, yes. But if you re-read my post in this thread today, you will see that when I tested it on my Intel 5K iMac today, it didn't work. Just wanted to mention that. That's why I had the same issue as @djc6 . At work now. No time right now to test your new file. Will later.

I tried the following URL variant WITH NO SUCCESS, so @eric needs to edit his earlier post to fix that URL: https://github.com/erichelgeson/fatdefrag/releases Previously, when I was given the opportunity to beta test this software in private, I was able to use the following steps with success...

Even though it would be nice to have a looser hinge that easier on the plastics, I won't tear apart mine because I know I'd screw up something by doing that. I will just pray that my CM + epoxy fix holds. So far it has. All the gory details of that plastic hinge repair are found starting at...

I didn't get a good answer, so a thousand thanks for tagging me in this thread because I might have overlooked it! What are the exact steps to disassembling the clutch? Looks hard. 😅

I love it when people educated me. Thanks, @muse . And thank you, @ClassicHasClass and @joethezombie and @sunvalleylaw !

Yes, I found the answer in the GEOS docs back in February when I discussed the matter with others in the C64U FaceBook group... LINK: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1249159557042604/posts/1307070134584879 I was 13 in 1984 and the Macintosh 128K was our first family computer, which I...

C64OS never found favor with me, in part because I never had a C64 of any kind when C64OS first came on the scene, but even now I'm not so interested because it seems like a super low-rez 40-column character-based "pseudo GUI": In stark contrast to that, GEOS, despite its flaws, offers a...

Abandonware, I guess. But the fact remains I’ve not seen any videos about anybody ever having used it, and YouTube existed prior to 2010. So maybe Wheels should be classified as vaporware instead? You’d think that with all the millions of C64 units sold back in the day that the retro Commodore...

Found at what URL?

I spent my first month or so with it trying to figure it out because I had zero experience with one. I then started fiddling with GEOS, which led me down the rabbit hole of problem solving, since I don’t have a compatible mouse. I suspended my work on it so I could release my first PowerBook...
