We're only working on high voltage stuff today!

I got this Powerbook 540C from @iiidiy , but it has a bad power supply. Let's see if it just needs a recap.

I also have an Apple m1212 Trinitron CRT that is basically dead. I've been wanting to work on it, so I'll use #marchintosh as an excuse to electrocute myself. Have I mentioned that I hate working on CRTs?

Did I pay too much for this $150 pile of ewaste? Potentially great vintage PC gaming hardware!

#DOScember Can I build a 486 to play Descent smoothly?

I can’t believe I actually fixed a power supply! (Power Macintosh 6100) #vintagemacintosh
