    PowerCache Card in IIci -- Why So Slow?

    Wasn't there an app called something like "Memory gobbler" or "grabber" or "eater" that did this for you on the IIci?

    IIci with no SCSI

    Also, IIci can be funky with termination power, at least on the internal connector. If you are doing the external device only, I think you need at least a passive terminator on the internal connector.

    400K Floppy Drive Issues

    I found that a drop of xylene (a solvent you can get at a hardware store in the US) does a good job of dissolving the dried up grease on these drives. Just a drop or so from a cotton swab should do the trick. Do this in a well ventilated area! I found that isopropyl alcohol doesn't do a good...

    Macintosh II & IIx replacement battery holders

    In these machines, isn't one battery for the startup circuit, and the other for the PRAM? I didn't think they were both feeding the same circuit, but I could be wrong! :)

    I'm pretty sure the BLU author is on the lisalist2.com forums. Might be worth asking there

    Lisa Sun20 drive questions/revival

    Surprise!

    Well, I do have the Xenix install media, but yeah I want to find again what poking around I did on this machine back in the day.

    Surprise!

    Was working on the Franken-Lisa today, and was able to revive one of my dormant Widget drives by transplanting the top two boards - where the data cable plugs in and the read/write board below it. The target drive would never come ready, and another Widget sounded like something scraping...
