First thing I would do is, with POWER OFF, open the II+ and remove any cards in any slots, and any game controller if attached. Check that the speaker cable is attached and solid. If you're looking at the top of the case, the connector is in the lower right hand corner. Then, without even

Need an opinion on IIc

How much is a IIc worth? It appears to be working very well and looks very good. It also comes with a truckload of software. It comes with everything you would need. Is it worth $60? I want it but I am cautious with my money. Tell me what you think? David

Bright Flash - No More Mac! :(

So I'm looking at my little collection of Vintage Mac's, decide to pull down my pride and joy, a Mac Classic, in MINT condition. No discolouring at all. Museum quality they would say. Power it on and start up PGA Golf, click to make my 4th swing of my 1W, when suddenly the wall behind my

Mac Classic II no sound?

Hello I have a Mac Classic II that I've had from new (1991 I think) I powered it up recently and it made no sound and took ages before the Mac smile face came on about 20-30 minutes? I replaced the internal battery and now if I turn it on I get 4 white stripes and 5 black stripes, then

Sounds like a fair price, especially if the software is original disks. Have you looked at completed auctions for //c systems on eBay? They range from $20 for just the system and power supply to over $100 for systems with the original box and manuals and accessories. Plus $20 to $40 for

I was doing the research on this. Originally, it came with the monochromatic monitor with green text but in the photo of the IIc thats for sale, it showed a color monitor. Otherwise it appeared to be the exact same monitor that the IIc came with. On Sun, Jul 19, 2009 at 12:21 PM, John Teffer

I did go ahead and buy it. The monitor is a few years newer than the computer. It's color. No monitor stand but everything else is there including a lot of software. Very little yellowing. Very nice but I shouldn't have bought it. Money is a little tight right now. Oh, well. Too late for
