It looks like my pile of equipment has completely bombed out :( I can't power up the portable, while I've tried two other floppy drives in the classic.
Is there anyone on this list in the Las Vegas area who could help me read a few old floppies? I can offer pieces of all of a Performa 475, a larger machine (I don't really remember whether it's a 68k or powermac, to tell the truth), or a MacPortable. also a 640x480 "Hi-res" monitor (doesn't talk to eitehr of the machines with the cable I have. The green light comes on, and the fuse isn't blown (I checked a couple of days ago. The cable is blue with ends labled "mac" and "vga"; I don't know whether it came with this monitor). To let anyone have the hard drive from the MacPortable, which presumably works, I would have to be able to wipe it first (it has old confidential client data on it, as well as stacks I need). I'd rather see these pieces sent somewhere where they'd be used than a landfill. hawk, losing another fight with old technology -- These opinions are mine. Noone else may have them without paying my retainer. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
