This morning I visited a flea market and I found an #Apple High Resolution Monochrome Display (MO400). I payed 5€ for it and it was a great find. I had a peek inside and the building quality is very high. It is a #Sony monitor 😍 It works, but the image is dim. I’ll see what I can do in the next few days. #retrocomputing #crt #monitor

It works fine, there’s some burn-in in the phosphors and the display is a little dim yet perfectly usable. The bad news is that the #MacintoshLCIII that I wanted to use with it doesn’t work anymore 🤪 It bombs on startup every time 😭 #Apple #monitor #retrocomputing #repair

I changed a few capacitors that were bad on the #Macintosh LCIII, but it still bombs on startup 🤪

I apparently missed a bad capacitor! Now everything works much better #retrocomputing #Apple #Macintosh #Repair

I tried The Queen’s Footsteps and it works beautifully on the Monochrome Display 😍 #retrocomputing #macintosh #apple #TextAdventure #InteractiveFiction #repair

@davbucci Beautiful! You've reminded me that I need to run your games on my Mac Classic!

@richardtroupe thank you! They should run fine. BTW, classic Macs are among my all-time favourite systems 😍

@davbucci I love a classic Mac myself, although the Amiga is the one that owns my heart. 😂

I'll get this game running once I get my workload out of the way!
