I had a thought the other day about how to alter the color of a Mac case in a way more durable than paint. :) Melt down some of the same sort of plastic in the color of your choice then use a heated spray gun to "paint" the case. Of course you'd definately want to wear a good chemical filter resp

Re: 086s

A 500meg HD and 16megs RAM will be plenty for System 7.1, even 7.5.5, in lots of 68k Macs. With a IIci it would be easy and cheap to bump that up to 20megs RAM by adding four 1meg SIMMs that lots of PC shops will almost give away. (Ask nice and they just might give them away for free.) > - Or

Toshiba used to make a 1/3 height tray load SCSI CD-ROM drive for desktop systems. I've seen them in Beige with a filler plate bolted on top or in combination with a slim 1.44M floppy. One surplus dealer had a pile of them without the filler plate in Sun Purple. I know they came in a 2x speed, pro
