I just got an old Mac Plus off Ebay in seemingly operational condition. I want to use it to teach my son a few things.
But first I need a system disk. Is there any way to create a system disk using a PC (with floppy drive)? It's bad enough that all of my PC's only have CD rom drives and no floppies. Except for one old IBM laptop with a floppy in the expansion bay... I also purchased another motherboard off Ebay that I want to tinker with. Maybe replace some capacitors etc. I noticed the Mac Plus makes a faint ticking noise while powered on. Is this on the motherboard maybe, or with the CRT assembly? Something I can fix? The screen seems a bit fuzzy on the upper right and left corners too, but otherwise is holding nicely!
