Etternal FD for Plus

Will a external HD (1,44MB) Floppy drive work with the Plus? Reading only 800KB of course. Or do I need a 800KB external Floppy drive to read floppys with the Plus? /jas -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com | Enter

IIci startup problems

Hi Listers, There are 5 electrolytic caps in the IIci startup circuit, C6, C10, C11, C12, and C13.. Those caps, or a bad power supply, are the most likely cause of startup problems. If there is any sign of cap leakage onto the board then all 5 caps should be replaced. I prefer using chip caps inst

The only cable I got with this computer is some strange thing that looks like it should be a 15 pin but there are only a few pins on each end. The pattern looks like the sketch below. ... .. .. . except the bottom pins are centered under the top row. Doesn't tell you much does it? Check ou
