This Does Not Compute | Restoring a (Literal) Rats' Nest Macintosh IIci @ThisDoesNotCompute | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
This Apple Mac IIci was stored in a garage or attic and ended up with rodents living in it. Can I get this absolutely filthy retro computer from 1989 working again?
