It is another dual PDS adapter for the SE/30, not by Artmix nor Bolle. Pricing hovers around $93 USD. @Kay K.M.Mods, can you look that up and let us know...
Overview
In this thread, we will discuss and document extended mode in the 1-bit video on a second display to the 128k, 512k, Plus, SE, SE30, Classic, and Classic II. The goal is to develop a driver, INIT, and CDEV working with related hardware.
It would be good that this would be open-source...
This document resource is the Macintosh SE and Macintosh SE/30 section of the Apple Service Technical Procedures Macintosh Family Volume One. Last revised by Apple in March 1990, it includes procedures to assist with taking apart and repairing and provides an overview and technical information...
The Macintosh SE/30 personal computer was designed for people who want maximum performance from a compact computer system. It provides up to four times the computational speed of the Macintosh SE while continuing to offer the benefits that characterize all Macintosh computers: a consistent user...
The Macintosh SE/30 embodies the same "user-friendly" philosophy as the original Macintosh while providing more memory, faster performance, and greater expandability. The Macintosh is still easy to learn and use, and now it's more powerful than ever.
Key features of the Macintosh SE/ 30...
Hello! :)
I tried to find if there was a thread already here on Tinker Different about this but have not. Some people did talk about it elsewhere, though. So, here I go.
I understand that many like to keep the Compact Macs the way it was back in the day. On the other hand, I want to give them...
I ordered a 296-33968-5-ND SN74LS166AD from Digi-key to replace my UE8 chip in my SE/30. When I look at the backorder status, it says March 2023!
Wow! Is there another chip that will work? Does anyone have one they want to sell?
I can confirm that this chip is too big: 296-SN74LS166ANSRCT-ND...
Hi everybody
I‘m looking for a replacement of my SE/30‘s battery-bombed RTC chip. I know of the ATTiny85 source code, but my machine is not accepting it and refuses to boot from Floppy or HD.
Has anybody experience with this replacement chip or does somebody have spares?
Many thanks,
Robin
In my SE/30 I have a MicroMac DiiMO 50MHz 68030 PDS accelerator card with an Asanté MacCon PDS Ethernet card plugged into its PDS pass-through. I recently acquired a RasterOps ColorBoard 264/30 and was intending to swap it in for the MacCon.
When I install it on top of the MacCon and turned the...
Hey TinkerDifferent!
I'm very excited to finally release my latest printed bracket design, which mounts the BlueSCSI 1.1a in the Expansion Slot on a Macintosh SE or SE/30!
The main goal of this bracket is to make the microSD card as easily accessible as possible, while keeping your Mac fully...
I have seen several examples of using CR2032 battery holders as replacements for dead half-AA on compact Macs. Using this type of battery has been working fine for me on the SE/30, SE, Mac Classic, and I assume there are other systems that can use this solution as well. This is not news to most...
Hi everyone!
Diving in with my first post, and a bit of an introduction. I am a long-time mac user and retro enthusiast in Portland, Oregon. I am looking for a good source for an SE/30 or even just a logic board. I want to tinker, get it running for the long-haul hobby. I have only lived in...
