Just Science, not "science" lol
The last place I made a real impact was bought by private equity. I'll have to give this a read.
Lol you've got me there
Late reply, but much of the fun can be had without the hunt for unobtainuim IC's with the Briel Replica 1 Plus kit.
I think you're talking about a wildcard type card, I knew them for IIe but didn't even think about them for IIgs!
Nice, reminds me of my Sega SC-3000H (8 bit sega home computer).

If you need anything, the applefritter forum is really the place where people who still know that hardware inside and out hang out outside of Facebook (I... don't go on facebook). II+ is a great repair project, I have restored two of them myself, so enjoy!
The Apple II series is honestly my favorite vintage computer to work on. Cheers!
Haha thanks! I'm thinking the 16 sector sticker might be more fitting on the SD, I might throw a signetics OTP windowless ROM on the wifi card. Either way it beats plain old tape or a boring labelmaker sticker :D
I've taken to sticking 16 sector apple stickers on my friends iPhones now that the 15 is the newest iphone, just to mess with people.
Nice, it's actually a Commodore 16 keyboard :D
Something like that; the guy assembled BASIC by hand without a compiler... that's a level of dedication most people lose, or never have to begin with.
Araknoid is awesome if you unlock the spring on the CH joystick 🕹
Hopefully someone just called in a "miss dig" to get the lines marked.
Great stuff! Join up on AppleFritter and 68kmla forums if you're the forum type.
Appreciate it!
Yes, I am on there from time to time. Username is skate323k137. I posted this on 68kmla earlier.
Thank you! I have been doing arcade repair and soldering for a long time, these actually aren't bad to do aside from CRT safety.
I restored it. Picked it up with a flickering display off Craigslist. I recapped the entire machine, calibrated the CRT, put in a SCSI2SD :)
Haha oh noooo.
Point, I wouldn't consider that one a restoration, it came well cared for. I did put in an mSATA ssd (IDE/PATA to mSATA) which is nice.
I had one of those, but for some reason they just aren't as nostalgic to me. I have an IIgs too, and it's crazy how much MIDI it can handle.
This is probably my favorite I have restored for sure. The IIgs is close behind, and maybe the Pismo if that's retro enough LOL
I regularly use MIDI modules as an extension of my Minilogue. https://youtu.be/9Kr2QENo5co is a video of it. Will have to try this module!
IDE to mSATA, yes.
Very nice! I mainly have this one out because using my 7500s takes way too much room. I also have an SE and various iMacs back to a pink G3
Nice, thanks for that tip! I'll check it some time when I open the unit again.
I didn't check the resistor, the unit is working great, is that a known common fault I should head off? For eproms I use a TOP3000 universal
The service manuals for the machines have settings to balance out prize payout.
sneaky... fuck 9gag
Don't worry, it's a universal cabinet. Power stone is 6 bolts and 2 wiring plugs away at any time.
Cheers
