Mac Plus

I've just found a Mac Plus in excellent shape with keyboard, mouse and all the manuals at a thrift store. Can anyone tell me what these are worth these days. I booted it up and it works fine. I was telling a co-worker about my find. I was told he used a Mac Plus in grade school. Boy did I f

Quicken on a Mac

I'm late getting to the digest so if this has been answered I'm sorry. I use Quicken on a IIcx and a IIsi with no problems. However; I use an older version. It works very well for myself. I got it off a Performa CD on E bay for a buck. Have a good day all. [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Pastors must make

Re475

The 475 is the same computer as a Quadra 605. My Quadra refuses to start without a pram battery. If the pram battery is dead try replacing it. I did the same thing with an LC with no trouble. Good luck. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by and... Small
