@tubetime As a new hire at Apple I authored the 7.5 installer script. I moved on to doing software engineering on the OS by 7.5.3, but that always gives me a nice feeling to see it still running. @tubetime I like to think you have a stock room full of capacitors. @tubetime I recapped my SNES a few months ago to protect it. Unfortunately I think it has some problems with one of the ICs. Graphics are all weird. Also replaced the vreg even though the output from that looked fine. @tubetime Seeing this is dredging up ancient memories of playing with not-new SCSI gear as a kid… staring at the baroque arrangement of peripherals, utterly confused as to why it wouldn’t just WORK. @tubetime Memories of SE30s, Classics and a few Quadras in a graphics shop I worked at in 92. I used Filemaker Pro to manage work flow and create job tickets. Great relational database program. @natemartinsf it's super clean! also dang you're on mastodon too, i will follow you asap @tubetime copyright 1982 on the ROM--wow! @tubetime thanks! I think Apple added the expansion port on the Mac SE; I recall working on a prototype add-on for that port in 1989. I think the port used a conventional DIN 41612 connector; this one looks like a newer, extended version. @tubetime Definitely a #Macintosh #mainboard: I've not seen and #PDS "slot" sockets anywhere else... @tubetime This post suggests power management. https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/where-to-find-341s0851-c-1990-apple-lciii-boot-issues.37152/ @tubetime that's 343S0120, often found alongside the customized 68HC05 Apple calls Egret (Cuda in later models) used for ADB, housekeeping tasks, PRAM, reset (and NMI) management, etc. IIRC '0120 serves as a power monitor, switching the HC05 to battery power when system power is cut. ...as seen here on a 630 DOS/LC580 board. @tubetime I feel like that's the spiritual successor of the SE's BBU which turned a half dozen or so PALs into a single chip @tubetime The Apple IIgs was the first to have this tool-less design. I don’t know why that is so. It made working on Apple products so nice. @tubetime Oooh that looks fun. Alas all I have in the classic mac world is a Mac SE with no slots. @tubetime @tubetime Yeah I've had mixed results with the SCSI2SD and random old hardware. A particularly weird one is suddenly the same one I've had forever stopped working on my Microvax. Used to work, now doesn't, no explanation. |
