    Let's fix up these //c's!

    Both machines have been re-capped, de-yuckified, de-yellowed, and are working perfectly: Now to turn my attention to this little guy... Before, the image was unstable. However, it appears that was due to corrosion on the //cs' composite jacks more than anything else. During the resto, I...

    PC Compatibility Card freezing during Win 95 install

    Have you tried the usual stuff, like reseating/replacing/removing the RAM SIMM on the card (if you have one installed)?

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    Ya, I saw that, but I missed out on the kickstarter. Maybe more will be produced for purchase?

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    yummy... All clean and the key switches feel a lot better after following @AndyDiags excellent guide. No ALPS switches for me unfortunately :( Now to clean up the other keyboard...

    Uggh, I wanna go, but I'd have to drive the 5hrs home Saturday night because I have plans on Sunday...I'm on the fence.

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    I checked both PSUs, and they were outputting good voltages. So, I hooked everything up to see where these things stand. Both machines work and read disks as they are. Keyboards are...in need of attention. The small monochrome monitor shows a clear image, but it's very hard to get stable...

    Let's fix up these //c's!

    About to start getting into this //c stuff I've had sitting here for awhile. I have no idea what condition any of this stuff is in...should be fun :)

    My little guide on RGBTOHDMI installed on Classic, Plus, etc.

    Hey...look at that :) https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/compact-mac-video-adapter.462/ Ya, didn't mean to hijack your thread. Can't wait to build my own RGB2HDMI.

    My little guide on RGBTOHDMI installed on Classic, Plus, etc.

    I found one of those in my SE, but it's inline with the analog board wiring harness instead of mounted on a PCB with passthrough connectors: Also found this thing in my Classic that serves a similar purpose: I've been wanting to build an RGB2HDMI for awhile now to try these out, but I...

    I just contacted them through their main customer support email...got a ticket number automatically assigned, etc. If you have any more "direct" contact info, please let me know!

    Well, I contacted Ergotron...we'll see where that goes. I did set my Classic on the stand, and the foot pattern is the same: So, the "conversion" kit is likely just a different mounting plate or riser that allows the Classic's bottom air vent to breath, along with maybe a different retention...

    Hey, it says "Lifetime Warranty" right here in the instruction manual ;). Wonder what they would say if I needed warranty service? I guess they'd probably point out that I never mailed in the warranty registration card that I have here 😆

    Showed my dad this thread and he was like "I have one of those "$99" Kensington slidaway keyboard stands...no box though, so probably only worth $98.99, lol. You want it?". So he's shipping that to me. Anyone know where I might find the MacTilt conversion for the Mac Classic? Or maybe...

    Only kinda related to the MacTilt, but I found this with it in the basement too: It's a monitor stand for the IIgs and IIc with space for two 3.5" drives underneath when used with a IIgs. Apparently there were removable angled risers for it to allow putting a IIc under it too...not sure how...

    MacTilt

    So I took this thing out and played with it this morning. It's definitely minty-fresh-unused-new-in-box: Full forward and backward tilt: The verdict? I actually kind of like it, and would definitely want one if I was using a compact mac all day. It feels like you're putting a lot...

    MacTilt

    I'll try to find time to take it out and assemble it. Literally forgot I had it. I do know that it probably makes my SE too tall to fit in its current home, and I'm not going to put it in a more prominent place ontop of that sketchy-looking thing with cats running around 😆 I was wondering the...

    Looks like they have another one in the background. That picture just doesn't give me the warm-n-fuzzies 😬

    Was looking for something in the basement today and forgot I had this. Anyone used one before? Is it stable or is it as precarious as pictures make it look? Suppose I should put it under my SE and find out :)
