I sometimes see photos of vintage Macs with new memory modules, usually purple PCBs. Does anyone remember or know what those are, and who sells them? #retroApple #retrocomputing

Old Apple kit, when the hardware was useful. 😅

Old Apple Keyboards can power a fan!

Doing the burn-in test of the recapped and fixed board and PSU. #retroApple
My fixes ain’t the most good looking thing in the world but they work! 😄 Go LC 475 go! #retroApple
Speaking about falling apart, the CPU has a pin barely being held in place. I don’t think I caused it (it came out cleanly when I took it out to wash the board). I inserted it back carefully and it’s working but I’m pretty sure this CPU will never come out of this socket again in one piece. #retroApple

Guess who’s about to fix another board! 😃 Bad video out is due to broken trace on pin 23 (A4) of the video chip.

Also what’s up with these LC 475 boards?! Two boards, two broken traces. These things seem to fall apart by themselves. #retroApple

Oh apparently a 68LC040 can’t use a 68882 FPU. Had no idea. Guess the 68882 goes back to the LC III, then. A bit of a waste to have bought an Ethernet card with FPU slot but to be fair they were all pretty much the same price. #retroApple
If you’re gonna buy a keyboard… buy a damn good keyboard. #retroApple
Next #MARCHintosh people won’t complain my node is slow. 😂 Ethernet, baby! Cutting edge technology here. #GlobalTalk #retroApple
