Mac Classic

Picked up a Classic today thanks to a CL posting. The guy said it worked although I didn't get any specs on it. I will try it after work and report back. I did get a keyboard and mouse. Cosmetically it's not bad but it does need a bath.

If need be, I have the MoBo and full loadout RAM thingamahootzie for your new toy. Untested, but methinks it was a PSU/Analog Board failure that put it on the curb for me, lo these many years ago, back in the BBApple! [😉] ]'>

Powered it on when I got home. It's a pretty ordinary Classic--2MB RAM, 40MB drive (sounds like a Conner). It booted up with no problems; I can't smell any bad caps (yet) on this one. I'll give it a bath later tonight after I do some tutoring.

The keyboard is the stock one but the mouse is an ADB II. I didn't get any software or manuals with it but it's still a nice little pickup.

If it's a 2MB model, you'll be wanting my full loadout RAM thingamahootzie! [😉] ]'>

I just might--even if it does compromise the insanely quick startup time of the 2MB model! Drop me a PM and we can see about working something out!

Off to give that poor computer a bath!
