📣 New Video Drop!! 🎥
This year, I’m thankful for finally being able to get this video out the door!
After much procrastinating, I finally dive into the recapping work on the Mac Classic that was a $30 FB Marketplace rescue. Watch me as I attempt to remove old electrolytic capacitors from this 1990 Macintosh Classic logic board.

📣 New Video Drop 🎥
I take a closer look at the seemingly fine $30 Facebook Marketplace Mac Classic. But, as we know, all good Mac Classics go bad and this little guy needs some help.
Let's find out how much trouble I'm really in and the spare parts that I've spend the last month purchasing.

So a thing happened today!
After researching, watching videos, procrastinating, watching more videos, talking to friends, drinking lots of coffee, and did even more procrastinating, I removed leaky caps from a #MacClassic system board! This was my first attempt at removing caps from a board. Not too bad.
Dealing with C2 and C8 are going to be “fu”n. 🤣😇

Well, it seems to be working! Apparently I did not fuck up the redesign!
For those that just tuned in, the MiniPerformer+ accelerator is just a smaller remix of the #Macintosh Performer reversed by Bolle. This version is dedicated to the #MacintoshPlus, especially to be used on the clone I built for myself (thanks to @DosFox who made it possible).
It's an accelerator with a ~16Mhz 68030 CPU and an optional 68882 FPU, that's it. No onboard memory, but still a good speed bump for an old machine.
I'll now test it one or two days, check that it is stable like the rev.1 and release it for all to use!
