Rick replied to option8's discussion way to ruin the value of a 128K"I threw up a little in my mouse at the thought of XP inside this case lol.

Rick replied to negatv's discussion Need - System 7.5.3 (or similiar) install floppies or raw disk images"If you want actually floppies, there's a guy on eBay that I bought 7.57.5.5 from. The disks are new, the labels are pretty decent, and the price wasn't bad. I can see if I can find the listing for you if you're interested."

Rick replied to Walter Johnson's discussion What is this cable?"I believe I have both the card and the cable. It came with the SE/30 I bought a year or 2 ago.

You're essentially transferring licenses. Some of those games could be abandonware anyway (the developer no…"
Rick left a comment for Robert Morgenier-"That's awesome! The only thing I ever found on AOL chats were crazy girls (not the good kind either! lol).
Looking at the prototype, I feel like it must glow in the dark ;)"

JustSomeGuy replied to Rick's discussion Macintosh DiskCopy 4.2 Floppy Image Converter"Nice. DiskDup+ is a far more capable disk imager, which by default puts out raw disk format. Nice to see there is a utility to convert DiskCopy 4.2 down to raw disk format too...
