Greetings fellow SE Reloaded peeps. I've been involved in one of these builds, about 9 hours into things with all going well....except for a couple of small parts that I still need to get [the kit I purchased with sockets, had the wrong size 28-pin connectors...too narrow]...but that part is...

@eric You'd certainly have me as a tester! I have both Slabs and Cubes with BlueSCSI's fit into them. If you want or need more, there could be some engaged on the nextcomputers.org forums as well.

Hi @davewongillies. Thank you for the information! Although there may be misery in the desoldering and re-soldering of all the pins, there will be joy in the knowledge that not only is the rust stopped, but in the case of this first keyboard -- no more outdoorsy nonsense will be contained...

Greetings fellow Mac Tinkerers. This may or may not be the right place to post this - but since this keyboard will be used with a Compact Mac, it seemed the right place....so here goes... [/rant starting] For something that's so explicit, as to search for "Apple Keyboard M0116 key switch...

Hey there. The items you seek are on Mouser. In JDW's words, "NOTE: Product photo on Mouser is wrong but Description correctly says "4 Positions."" Female: 538-15-31-1046 Male: 538-19-09-1049

I have to say...when I discovered Disk Jockey...my prayers were answered....not only for building Mac images, but images for the beloved Black [NeXT] hardware in my stable. Absolutely amazing stuff. I look forward to the next set of enhancements! @OneGeekArmy Thank you for such a wonderful...

Hi Anden! Thank you for a point in the right direction and for the information. I did a bit more research on Applied Engineering and their line of accelerator cards. It didn't dawn on me to even consider them, since I associate AE's accelerators with the Apple II, the TransWarp GS really. I...

Greetings fellow Mac Heads and Vintage computer enthusiasts. I'm undertaking the fun journey of an SE Reloaded build. The SE I purchased was from eBay and listed as 'For Parts'. Thankfully, it wasn't just for parts. When disassembling things and getting into the insides -- I discovered a...

Retrobright - a far, wide-ranging and interesting topic...with people out there who have differing methods and opinions on how it should be done. JDW put it best, "In the end, what matters is the result YOU get, or in my case, the result I get". With that said, some go for the 'chemical free'...

As for sites that have NeXT software...there are a number of them out there. Some with demo-only software, others with full-on versions with license details. Be aware that some of these may or may not be available any more. fsck.technology -- https://fsck.technology/software/NeXT/ on...

I'm a bit late to the game on this one...but you can do a quick and dirty NFS setup using a Raspberry Pi and OpenMediaVault. I had exactly the same problem, I can download stuff from sites using my modern-day computer, but how do I get it over to a NeXT? Once I figured this one out, things...

Taken from another post on the subject of displays... There are a couple of options out there in the wild for using non-period-specific VGA displays [that support SoG] with NeXT hardware. First, from DrakWare - the NeXTBox. With no sound support, it'll let you plug the standard NeXT cable that...

Another late to the game posting....but there are a couple of options out there in the wild for using non-period-specific VGA displays [that support SoG] with NeXT hardware. First, from DrakWare - the NeXTBox. With no sound support, it'll let you plug the standard NeXT cable that goes into a...

Hey @Drake. Definitely a pleasure. WiFi for NeXT won’t work though. 😢 it’s based off the SCSI version produced by Dayna back in 1993. Could be fun though trying to write a WiFi driver. 😁

Definitely recap your NeXTstation. There is a comprehensive guide on what's needed to do the job. If you have soldering skills, it can take a couple of hours, but certainly worth it. I just got done recapping a Mono and Mono Turbo slab and a Cube logic board. Happy that they're done. Slab...

Greetings. If you're a member of nextcomputers.org, check out the post in the NeXT Black Hardware section, "BlueSCSI Settings". This will give some helpful setup tips when getting started.

Greetings. Getting to this REALLY late in the game...but.... I've been using BlueSCSI v2, both internal and external with 4 different NeXT boxes -- 2 Cubes, 2 Slabs [Mono and Mono Turbo]. All four of them have the identical 'drive' setup': HD10_512 NeXT_OS42.hda. [2GB] HD20_512...
