I can't believe this but I was at my old high school today, and passed the dumpster, and I decided to just look in it, and low and behold I found not one, not two but THREE compact macs. One is an SE with the FDHD drive I think as it says "FDHD" on the front of it, another is a mac SE/30 and hte last one is a Mac Classic, I will be opening them up tonight an ddrying/cleaning them out, I'll let you guys know what I come out with, they may need electrical repair and I am not so good at the anymore so I may need to enlist some of your genious to help me ;-)
Pray they work, I know one has a burnt in screen, because when I picked it up to look at it I could "see" the finder on the screen andthe thing was off :-/
Not necessarily. I've got a compact or two with the menu bar clearly visible with no power and the screen looks fine when powered.
so, I may need to figure out a way to get a replacement monitor for it, I'm not sure which one it was, I think it was the SE/30 and now I have two SEs so maybe I could take the screen out of one of those for the SE/30? Or is there some way to upgrade it easily to a color screen (I don't think there is... except maybe with that rare card...)
The Micron card can drive an external color monitor or internal gray scale (with additional hardware) but I've never heard of a color upgrade to an SE or SE/30.
