@ahihi It has very much a “Word 5.1a for Mac OS Classic was the best Word” energy :-)
JPeck@ahihi back when applications just did one job well
George Haritonidis@ahihi how loud is that SCSI drive screaming along?
@georgeharito the drive is long dead, im just using the enclosure as a terribly unwieldy DB-25 to 50-pin adapter to run it off a BlueSCSI
0x4d6165 (Julie or Mae)@ahihi what's on top of the mac plus? just curious :3
@0x4d6165 an external SCSI drive enclosure which im using as a terribly unwieldy DB-25 to 50-pin adapter to run the Mac off a BlueSCSI
StarkRG@ahihi You're running it with its guts hanging out? Poor baby.

Attached: 1 video Great news! I managed to fully restore an Italian Macintosh Classic! (And convert it from 240 to 127v) 💕 The 30+yr original SCSI disk is still alive and kicking too! Just need to service the floppy drive and figure out how to stabilise the display. 🥰
四@ahihi I like this version better :)
0x10f/kalle/qalle@ahihi Reminds me of one of the recent Black Mirror episodes.

☭@ahihi Off-topic, but the thing on top, is that a hard drive for the Macintosh? Connected through SCSI? Why is it opened?

🇨🇦@ahihi Oh my, the ancestor of the first computer I ever bought. A Mac SE with dual floppy drives (no HD). I believe it was $2800 CAD (circa 1985 $) The ImageWriter dot matrix printer was an additional $600 or so. And this was with whatever the university student discount was at the time. Yikes!!!
Arthur van der Harg@ArtHarg @ahihi When it comes to dinosaurs there’s often some overlap in lineage! I believe my SE was one of the first releases (likely ‘87, not ‘85 as I said earlier without really thinking about it) of that model, and the Plus was a year earlier circa ‘86. The 128K and 512K were the first Macs. I do recall a sense of jealousy when the SE was released with a (20MB?) internal HD. I got good at switching out floppies between system, application and data disks…
Ah, the ‘good’ old days!
@graand @ahihi My first Mac was a Classic II. In the research group that I was at, the SE/30 was the coveted workhorse. The Classic II was a mistake, to be honest. Not powerful enough for what I needed it for. (That instilled an attitude of “buy what you can afford, not what you think you need”.) I upgraded to a Quadra 650 fairly quickly, added the PowerPC upgrade card when that came out. I think that Quadra and my MacBook Pro mid-2012 are the two Macs that have seen the longest active service.
anemoshi@ahihi i bet that keyboard has the best tap-feel
Ω 🌍 Gus Posey@ahihi It's cool how you're a genius. Also I'm jealous of that keyboard.
bewilderbeast23@ahihi Best response to ENSHITTIFICATION!
JillL@ahihi Time to bring back Lotus 1-2-3. and WordPerfect!
Filip Lachert he/him
Brent Cook@ahihi I appreciate the effort getting that old scsi drive spinning again.
@busterb the drive is long dead, im just using the enclosure as a terribly unwieldy DB-25 to 50-pin adapter to run it off a BlueSCSI
Quokka (on the move...)@ahihi there's no item in that picture I don't like. And man, bring back curly keyboard cables

cybervegan@ahihi What version of Windows is THAT running? Looks too old for AI!
See: https://autistics.life/@losttourist@social.chatty.monster/115110826984286409
(Yes, I know. I used to work on these, even repair them. 68000 cpu. 1MB RAM. Integrated monochrome CRT display. Appletalk connectors. Macos version somewhere round 5.0.)
@cybervegan this one is on 6.0.8! i hear it could go up to 7.5.5 with a RAM upgrade, but that it is not really a pleasant experience
Bill Seitz@ahihi upgrading from multiplan was a mistake
stefan (stefbun)@ahihi Your PC and operating system might just be the slightest bit out of date 
But whats that thing on the top?

Microblog Castellano@ahihi
In 2000 I made my Income Tax Return with excel in a 1992 Macintosh II ci (and I filled all forms by hand). It was a protest against the fact that error tracing in the then available "programa padre" was nearly impossible.
I had had to pay a fine for an error in 1996 income tax that I'm sure came from a wrong income receipt from my boss (they paid me x, then revoked the payment) or from my bank (they never gave me the income receipt and i had to calculte by hand). Being unable to detect wich one was the source of the error, I decided turning into excel in the then obsolete mac classic I got from the dupster.
Lolicanthe 😺@ahihi I love and admire the dedication to the joke ^^
