Got one of the two Japanese floppy drives fixed. The other one keeps wanting to run the belt off the pulley within a couple seconds after spinning it up
My First #MARCHintosh video of the Year is out!

A term coined back in the day before it was simply known as Brittle Plastic Disease, or Brittle Plastic Syndrome .
Triage of these machines left for dead will be out soon! #MARCHintosh
Let the #MARCHintosh games begin
Yep, I also have one and its cracked right down the middle. Made out of spindler plastic.
Cheese
I wonder if potentially one of those chinese wideband amplifiers would help with transmission, barring the FCC
Planning on open sourcing it at all?
Maybe a checkbox for automatic display inversion to prevent burn-in.
Instead of turning a clock into a vintage Mac, I turned a vintage Mac into a clock!, I though it would be fun given its #MARCHintosh The program can be downloaded here: github.com/retrotheory/...
It supports US/EU month day order AM/PM, Invert display, 'grey' background and alarm function

A dot matrix printout on tractor feed paper. It’s a letter/memo. Contents: Apple Computer Inc., Adranced Technology Group News Dear Apple Evangelists, During the past several weeks, it has come to my attention an extraordinary amount of information and rumor about Apple has been appearing in local newspapers, trade and business publications and posted in on-line newsgroups. Although there's usually some truth in most everything that's printed about Apple, rumors both inside and outside of Apple are surfacing more frequently these days. I’d like to take a moment to clarify these zumors and set the record straight
One day before the start of #MARCHintosh and the polpo zone and its ImageWriter II are back on #GlobalTalk! About 5 minutes after getting online I got a letter from John Sculley himself. I’m honored
Getting ready for #Marchintosh ❤️

Now that the qemu box is handling the routing, my Mac SE can zip around #globaltalk way easier! and it's not running out of memory opening shares or simpletext docs! #marchintosh prep!
If only rooms were still that big.
DejaVu. Spare Time Repair on youtube just worked on one with the same fault, i think its missing one of the two voltage rails but its been long enough I dont 100% remember.
I remember this... I was in Southwest Ohio at the time, and the skies were looking ominous. Eventually we got a TOR warned storm but nothing came of it, the lowering was a scary sight though.
The incredible Jack68k made a piece of software that is almost a Tech Step (with potentially more flexibility) for those of us that can’t afford an actual Tech Step. Total game changer for those of us that work on old Macs!

Not sure if that counts for #MARCHintosh, but I'm running System 6 on my Atari ST, and I'm loving it !

Definitely a smear campaign.
Interesting... it looked like the old Microchip logo.
Can anyone identify this IC? I can't find anything
Pour one out for this one. This might be the worst Toshiba I've ever seen. Poor J3100SS
Who knows what was installed by the previous owner. They wernt done!
Holy shit it works. I somehow managed to fix this thing
Next thing I had to do was fix the ribbon cable because it had been torn
