I met up with some friends at a coffee shop to get
some data off a hard
drive that was given to one of them with an old Mac Plus. During the course
of this, we looked some things up, and learned that the Mac Plus was
released on January 16, 1986: Thirty one years ago, as of this coming
Monday.
Maybe I?ll take some time out on Monday to finally fit mine with the
replacement analog board that I?ve acquired, so I can enjoy that beautiful
bluish-white phosphor glow once again.
I spent some time before Christmas with my old Mac Plus I acquired many
years ago. With some fiddling I got this old box running System 6.07 on the
Internet. Maybe not a spectacular experience but it works!
