New video is out! I try to restore a Macintosh Classic that has been sitting on a smoky shelf for decades! :)

Of course, mistakes were made...

The analog board has been fully recapped, some joints resoldered and the whole thing cleaned with isopropyl alcohol. #macintosh #macintoshclassic #retrocomputing #recap

Started recapping the analog board. The leakage is obvious. #macintosh #macintoshclassic #retrocomputing #recap

My first attempt at making my own GAL for the #MacintoshClassic was met with... mixed results.

This is an actual attempt to craft the equations myself, so I'm not surprised it didn't work. But the fact I even get the checkerboard is a semi-good sign (I get a blank screen without any PAL/GAL). So... um, a learning experience? 😂

Interesting flashing checkerboard with artifacts during testing my first ever attempt at creating a GAL for the Macintosh Classic.

Does anyone have a 68k era Macintosh emulator they can recommend?

Finally, the #Macintosh Classic takes its rightful place among its contemporary brethren 😍
