Also I went to check if my 800k Mac SE still had the battery on it's logic board and thankfully the old owner did remove it

I will have to get the Mac fixed since it no longer turns on (only makes weird unhappy noises no chime at all)
I'm suspecting the analog board is faulty since smoke came out of it when it was still running back in mid- September of 2023

Bought a "daystar digital 105013-109 33 Mhz Card 01-FC040-001" off eBay, this is a 68040 PDS L2 cache, right?

Finally debombed my Mac SE SuperDrive

Thankfully the battery which is a Maxwell didn't leak or explode inside of the computer
I installed the MacBatt CR2032 adapter with a brand new CR2032 battery

Just seeing this, I would be interested in a clear SE/30 case and a clear mouse case too if he has those.

Still can't figure out Email. Stunnel doesn't work, other options don't seem to work. Trying to get old Email clients to log into modern Email is a pain, all to sync Email to a palm pilot. If I figure this out, I'm writing a guide.

Thanks for your support! There's always a bit of friction in these situations - usually out of misunderstanding, not malice - so it means a lot!

Thanks. I think you did a very good job replying to concerns.

PowerPC Challenge month has concluded, just as I had the time to get into MIDI music making in Cubase, and playing Sims classic. I might wait for the weekend to swap machines, next up is the Quadra 605. Maybe next next weekend. Maybe.

Note, when I have the privileges, post about the CPU socket type in beige G3 Macs. What heatsinks are compatible with this? It uses clips and heatsinks like Socket 7, but it's smaller. What else would work on this? We can do better than Apple stock, we ALWAYS can do better.
