In what is probably a feeble attempt to make more room, I am in the process
of throwing out what I consider to be junk. In this process, I ran across a
modified Mac SE (only the modified case, picture tube, and some small
unknown device) that looks like it might have been modified for use as a
Tempest machine. The label reads: The Tempest division of Atlantic Research
Company, ARC, P/N D77569-4, model T5240. I was about to toss it but in
looking more closely at it, that would most likely be not a good thing since
it appears to be somewhat unique. If in fact this is a tempest Mac, are the
computer components most likely interchangeable with other Macs? I wish I
had the keyboard that went with this thing but unfortunately, all I have is
the cabinet.
