    Pacific Northwest ***WANTED MACINTOSH SE***

    Announcing ZuluIDE - an ATAPI CD-ROM and Removable (read-write) media emulator

    If and when proper DVD support is finished, there will be an immediate demand for these from arcade operators. Systems like the namco 256 keep [IDE] optical discs spinning all the time, in unfriendly environments, but are still in use. Along these lines, in an already real world example, I would...

    Pacific Northwest ***WANTED MACINTOSH SE***

    I may be able to do that for the double floppy SE I have, the CRT on it is super clean, and since it's not recapped and upgraded that may be a reasonable price, less freight. If you would like, I can get that one out for photos.

    Midwest FS: West MI, Apple II+, Apple II Cards, other systems

    Hey all, Looking to see if anyone here in west MI is interested in a II+ or one of my other systems. I sadly need to thin the herd a little bit, but if would be cool to see some of these go to good homes. First up I have a II+, which has a new reactive micro PSU within the last 2-3 years, and...

    Pacific Northwest ***WANTED MACINTOSH SE***

    What is your budget and are you willing to cover the cost to ship? I can double box etc., but I am in MI so it's a ways. I have 2 spare SE's though. One is very loaded out, one is functional and could use an owner who wants to do the work. Mac SE Yellowed case, but Fully recapped in 2018...

    Jason Scott's VCF Donation

    Honestly, this is the point in the thread that puts it in perspective IMHO.

    resurrecting/upgrading power mac 7500/100

    Are you in the US? I have a fully working (last I checked, a couple years) parts 7500/100. The original owner painted it purple, hastily, but the actual board, memory, etc is all fine.

    resurrecting/upgrading power mac 7500/100

    It's been a moment since I restored mine but I seem to remember holding a reset button for about a second every time I make any changes to the machine, before powering it on. Much more about it here though https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/powermac-7500-100-dead.19371/

    Did MacOS ever have any sort of scripting ability?

    My mind starts to wonder into what you could do with the HFS (presumably) volume on other systems, i.e. Basilisk II or HFS Explorer. But if you could script it within Basilisk you could script it on the machine, though, probably infinitely faster in basilisk...

    Midwest WTS: Atari 800 Mechanical Keyboard

    Something like this for a 65XE would be amazing. Congrats on your builds.

    Midwest FS: GGLabs Apple II SCSI card w/free BlueSCSI

    This was my spare, I am keeping my primary; this one is long gone. Feel free to drop me a PM if this does not cover your questions, but basically, as long as the logic ICs are happy in a IIe it should work as an autoboot device in slot7. On IIgs I use it in slot1 as a bridge device almost...

    Midwest FS: GGLabs Apple II SCSI card w/free BlueSCSI

    Card is sold. Note for future: I had only tested the card with IIgs, with IIe, it did not work at first. The person who got this card from me was very patient while I sorted this issue with my own identical card. For IIe issues, GGLabs suggested I check the 74LS245, to ensure it was LS series...

    WTB: Working Apple Lisa

    IIRC there were sites that would do this, but IMO it also opens up worse opportunities for shill bidders.
