Looks like I will be :) I recently discovered that another forum member lives less than an hour away and needed to downsize their collection. After making a carefully prepared and well researched presentation to my wife, she gave me the green light to go pick these up: There's a 128k, 512k...

FWIW, I've seen versions of this card with the 020 instead of the 030. There's one on ebay right now: There are some noteable differences between that card and the card in the first post: U4 is populated resistor at JP1 instead of JP2 20Mhz 020 vs 33Mhz 020 (though maybe running the 20Mhz...

Upgraded my 6100 with a GUIDED MISSILE :ROFLMAO:. Grabbed this (hilariously marketed) slot blower fan for $2 at VCFMW to see if it fit under the 6100's HD bay. After removing the slot bracket, it's snug, but it fits perfectly: It's quiet and blowing a steady stream of cool air from...

Looking at the blurry image of the top of the 2-slot card from the manual, it looks like there *might* be an IC or two next to the slots. I think I see some legs on the edge of the image that aren't part of the LC board: Here's the full page from the manual...

So I actually got my hands on the 25yr old invoice from when my dad bought this thing: It confirms that he bought it without the accelerator (he likely already had it), which is probably why it didn't include the dual-slot PDS adaptor. People smarter than me...how hard would it be to create...

Got the MacEffects keyboard installed. For anyone wondering if it's compatible with the BMOW drive switcher, the answer is yes. If you have the drives swapped so the internal drive is drive 2, you just need to switch to slot 6 drive 2 in the keyboard software when reprogramming the keyboard...

Hope this doesn't derail the thread, but I love the signed and graded comics on-display! Here's some of mine...no desk picture because my desk is currently a disaster 😬

I just ordered the MacEffects keyboard...no more mushy hairpin switches!

Love those old cocktail cabinets! Here's mine that I built back in 2007ish...it's a MAME cabinet, so not really a "restoration". I bought a Midway cabinet from a local arcade and kept the original art for simplicity. Just built a custom control panel and made a matching overlay for it...

I had a great time at VCFMW! I was hoping to come back with less stuff than I brought...that did *not* happen :LOL: Finally got my hands on the A2 RGB monitor I've always wanted but would never risk shipping:

Not sure mine was "broken", but I took it apart to retrobrite anyways, so I recapped it and gave it a once-over while I had it apart since I'd prefer to never take it apart again. It sounds dumb, but first thing to check would be the composite jacks on both the A2 and the monitor. They're often...

I'm just curious if the attached image works for either of your Classics with a BlueSCSI connected internally. I had similar issues about a year ago with my Classic and it turned out to be the SCSI driver that was being used. I never tried connecting my BlueSCSI externally at the time though...

I'm going for my first time this year.

I recently got an Old Net WIFI modem and just got it working with one of the Executives using myterm. Most of the work was getting the downloaded myterm binary copied over serial to the Osborne (getting the serial port configured right, converting to hex, converting back to a binary on the...

I got an Osborne 1 awhile back that I just finished restoring. Here it is next to one of its Executive brethren right after I got it home. It mostly worked, though the B drive was hit-or-miss and it was just really filthy and yellowed. I also didn't want to run it too much before getting...

So an official BlueSCSI 1.1 firmware was just released that includes @jokker 's changes to support this CMS card. I flashed it and was able to get my //e booting ProDOS off of a 32MB volume :) Then I set about trying to add termination power to the CMS card so the BlueSCSI wouldn't have to...

Here's mine:

Yes, there's a TTL buffer board in the middle. I didn't assemble my own board(s) like you did. I bought pre-assembled boards from Aaron at Retro Hack Shack. So I got the 12bpp RGBtoHDMI board, the TTL buffer board, and the analog board in case I ever want to play with that.

This thread was a huge help getting my own RGBtoHDMI up and running...what to buy, finding a Pi Zero, printing a case...thanks!
