Re-activating my old Mac Classic
I have a circa 1991 Mac Classic and as I recall the reason it won't boot is that its 40MB internal SCSI drive has failed. I don't care about the data on it but would like to have this machine operable just for fun. It shipped with System 6.0.8 and before I stopped using it, I had added some memory and upgraded the system to System 7.0.1, I believe. I think I have the floppies it shipped with, and it probably needs a new internal battery. I think I replaced that once already. Will their be any power in the dreaded capacitor that we were told to watch out for? Ten or fifteen years ago the SCSI drives were easy to come by and I never got around to it. Did I miss my chance?
Thanks in advance.
