I don't know a lot about electrical type stuff but I'd bet there are probably some other options out there for these flybacks on compact Macs with 9" screens. As these Macs get older and older and CRTs and flybacks probably completely out of production by now, it's getting harder to find...

I just bought a G3 233 for $100 that I'm gonna use with Vicomsoft Router to connect LocalTalk to Ethernet, plus it has SCSI and I can get a cheap PCI usb card to bridge SCSI/USB. There's even an internal Zip dive. And it's still cheaper than an Asanté solution!

If I could find one for $20, i'd buy it too! I'm pretty much off of buying things on ebay lately. Inflated pricing and misleading listings. "Here's a piece of paper I found in the garbage with an Apple logo on it! Only $5,000! L@@K Steve Jobs!"

You should totally sell some of these. I'd buy one.

only one on ebay right now at $99 https://www.ebay.com/itm/334190931064?hash=item4dcf54ec78:g:rFUAAOSwpI1hct8-

I would like to see a cap guides section for sure, They are spread out all over the place and never complete. RecapaMac has some, powercc has some, Mac84 has 1 or 2, but I can't find them all anywhere. I don't really think a software archive is pragmatic as there are already some out there that...

Man would I love to have one of those NeXT stations! #jealous! I saw a beautiful NeXTCube at the VCF retro show in Wall, NJ this year that I was inches away from buying but I really want color.

Lately, I've just been buying and trading with VCF, TD and 68kmla folks. Occasionally, there's an ebay auction that's reasonable. But some of the ebay asking prices are just stupid high. I'm in Central New Jersey so there's a lot of action in this area, not as much as central California though.

I'd really like to see a regular Plus with an LCD and a smaller, flatter PSU without flyback and all the stuff you need to drive a CRT as a working proof of concept. If that could be done successfully, then this project could launch with confidence. You could always leave out the floppy and use...

I think the last time I wrote compilable code was in Think Pascal and the MPW, and that was in the early 90's. I think I still have the excellent "Oh, Pascal" reference book. I still do a bit of AppleScript and Javascript mainly for automation on Creative Suite.

Wow, I have never seen black cap juice like that! I don't think I've ever seen a gold Mac Logic board either. I wonder which other models have them. The only other color I've seen are the blue iLamp boards.

Can you elaborate regarding why you don't care for the CR2032 mod? I was thinking of going that route with the kitty adapters. Or is that even what you were referring to?

Couldn't you create a service account that logs in for backups? We do that for some cloud accounts (Box, OneDrive ,etc.) at work that we need to back up locally per industry regulation.

I would love to have some replacements for my two dead LCII PSUs (1 Astec, 1 TDK). I got the re-cap kits but haven't gotten around to recapping. I don't even know if recapping will fix them.

I love it. That being said, I think some serious engineering would have to go into the PSU and the Logic board connection to the LCD. The mechanics of it (wiring, case dimensions, etc.) would be the fairly easy part. Has anyone here wired a Plus logic board to an LCD?

If you're looking on ebay, everything is overpriced. I see old Macs asking prices crazy high sometimes. And for regular goods, sometimes higher than new.

I try to restore the machine to it's original glory. Original OS, hard drive, etc. I load the drive with the software that was popular at the time of original purchase. That being said, I do have a few with SCSI2SDs and FloppyEMUs on them. I do retr0brite on severely yellowed cases that look...

I have a Lisa 2/10. I've turned it on, clicked on some stuff but it was so confusing, I never really learned how it worked. this video will get me to start using it.

escaping characters while coding!

My holy grail item is a Dash 30fx. Back in the late 80's, I was employee #1 at a company called Cactus. We developed and sold the world's first large format digital printing system. We used 3 Dash 30fx boxes for Imaging/color correction, RIP, and Print. I put a SCSI card in each one and cabled...
