Macintosh Classic II with 10 Mb and 40mb hd

Power Macintosh 7600/132 with 64mb and 1.1 hd

Apple LaserWriter NTR

Apple 14" rgb monitor

All work!

The only thing left to confirm is actual printing with the NTR

Going to junk the monitor though. I happened to find an apple to VGA adapter, so the 7600 can run nice on a spare 22" lcd

But keep the monitor stand?

Posted by: Macdrone on 2013-03-09 15:22:07
I would take the monitor looks pretty nice.

especially the square stand.

Beachycove has first dibs as he replied first and most likely lives in the Toronto area, but Macdrone you are more than welcome to it if beachy doesn't take it.

I don't want it. My cup overfloweth already.

well it might cost a bunch, but find out what shipping to zip 97048 would you please. Just in case.

Nice grab!

If Macdrone ends up not wanting it I would be open to taking it depending on costs to 95070.

Would this work on a Hi-Res RGB display (the one which displays 640x480, not the LC one which only does 512x384)?

It looks like I missed out, but I guess I'll ask for shipping to 94594 anyway. It seems I have little to lose...

I *think* that's the Apple Color Plus display, so it does 640x480. Was usually sold as a Performa display and as a low cost alternative to the M1212 14" Macintosh Color Display. The LC style monitor was a 12".

Anyway, to the OP, nice grab.

I would love to own the Classic II. I hear it's really silent when compared to the Classic.

I have 2 classic iis now. I think they might be my favorite macs. They look like appliances and perform much better than the favorite classics, although i do have a place for a 512k, should that moment ever arrive. microphone input is fun to play around with.

As far as the monitor goes, a friend of mine expressed interest, but if he doesn't show up to pick it up in a week, I will let you all know, and you can PM for offers on the monitor and stand. I live in toronto.

Anyone know much about those monitor stands? I have one, not sure what models it was originally intended for, or if it was a genuine Apple accessory?

Posted by: volvo242gt on 2013-03-11 03:18:51
Oh, wait a sec... Looks like it's just the old 13" AppleColor High-Res monitor. Took a closer look and realized that the Apple logo was in a different spot.

The stand was an accessory for that monitor, and, I believe the 12" monochrome monitor.

Posted by: LCGuy on 2013-03-11 13:18:48
I'd keep the monitor, thats a nice 13" Trinitron, perfect for just about any 68k.

Congrats Fairchild!

That powermac is dreamy.

Posted by: fairchild on 2013-03-11 17:40:35
The 7600 is pretty cool because it has audio in and out on rca's and s-video and composite video in! This will be a perfect mate for my fisher price pxl-2000 video camera!
