    I Bought 8 x 16MB SIMMs from tindie.

    siliconinsider usually does a great job. I have 4x4MB SIMMs from him in my SE/30 which work great! The SE/30 however is very picky about RAM. Did you install them correctly? What are the symptoms?

    Mac 128K & SE/30 Trivia Question — A Shocking Truth

    I didn‘t hear that either, but I have heard that the SE / SE/30 have shockingly thin wires, causing significant voltage drop.

    Well, if I believe the rumours, the 128k must have the thicker wires 🙈

    SMC ROM Simm programming

    I‘m not quite sure if this is a helpful answer, but I use my TL866II+ with modern macOS using minipro. Maybe the T48 is also supported..

    I Have A Stupid Question...

    There is no point, except for aesthetics. Just put your screen into stand-by mode or switch it off.

    Found my Oscilloscope?

    I‘d just go for a decent USB scope.. Or a Saleae logic analyzer, which also has analog inputs.

    BlueSCSI v2 Pico - Low cost, open hardware, fast SCSI device!

    You can probably read the IP address from ARP packets (or even send your own requests to the Mac)

    BlueSCSI v2 in a Performa 5300 CD?

    Instead of a BlueSCSI, it might be simpler/cheaper to use a generic IDE to SD adapter.

    Is this socketed?

    I‘d assume it‘s soldered. At least the same variation of the ‘030 was soldered in my SE/30. I believe the golden ones are socketed. Why do you want to remove it? Is it a battery bombed board?

    Looks like there were a few commits on GitHub in the last months, so progress is probably just very slow..

    Has anyone succesfully removed a grill vent from the top of a Compact Mac?

    I‘d go for high quality resin printing. Maybe make a prototype using your own printer and then order it from Shapeways

    SE/30 Reload

    With JLC, I payed around $200 for five boards with bottom side populated. These were plain green boards with no gold finish though.
