It’s almost #MARCHintosh which means soon I’ll stop hitting my foot on this Mac Plus that’s been under my desk for months!

I know it is a few weeks early, but who is ready for Marchintosh? #marchintosh

Our Mac SE had been out of action for a while with a very dim screen. @retroworkshop.bsky.social braved an HV probe to show the EHT was Ok, tube had reached end of life. Handily we also had a very battery damaged donor machine - one tube swap later it's back in ready for #MARCHintosh 😊 #TNMOC

Working on some video projects for #Marchintosh. I hope you guys like old Macworld Magazines.

#MARCHintosh time soon! Have some projects lined up, hopefully will have time to see them through

Working on something a little different for this year's #MARCHintosh / #GlobalTalk calling card 😉 (full disclosure: I really don't know C that well, so this is a mashup of a couple tutorials from old books and it's not _that_ impressive. But it will work all the way back to System 1!)

Macintosh SE/30 finally got the analog board recapped, and I didn’t mess it up! #RetroComputing #MARCHintosh

It’s getting close to #marchintosh! A couple years ago, I tried “snowbrighting”. youtube.com/shorts/WbhN0...

My body is getting ready for 2025 #Marchintosh #vintageapple #imagewriter #dotmatrix #globaltalk

A really great guide for getting your virtual Macintosh online with #Globaltalk this #MARCHintosh!

It’s #MARCHintosh soon …

Want to listen to some RealAudio streams? This #Marchintosh project lets you do just that! hachyderm.io/@theirongian...

Getting ready for #marchintosh 2025! Thanks to @DrJosh9000’s work I now have my #globaltalk router up 24/7 thanks to jrouter and intend to keep it up for the foreseeable future. Netatalk server is next!

As #marchintosh approaches I got hold of a beautiful iMac g3 Tangerine and a Apple Classic compact Mac, the g3 seems to be in good shape, only some arching, probably from the dried out electronic grease on the anode cap and the Classic needs some new caps, both are very low hours! Yay!

For those who celebrate #MARCHintosh, I've re-rendered all my classic Mac wallpapers (and added a few new ones). motorcycl3.com/copeland/

I *think* I have finally found and repaired all of the bad traces / pads on @iiidiy.bsky.social ‘s Cursed LC575. Time to start putting chips back on. Hoping for a #marchintosh miracle!

Filtering through all the #MARCHintosh feeds to make a list of all the new 2025 projects and content - already quite a bit and it's not even March yet! tinkerdifferent.com/threads/marc...

I moved the Apple printers to #MARCHintosh so that I could test the CPUs and motherboards from last Tuesday’s Wheel of Regrets™, culminating with continuing the single Pentium Pro build. Live tonight starting at 8PM EST! www.youtube.com/live/g4_dgVc...

Check out the replay of the 2025 #marchintosh kick off Livestream from last night. Awesome new imagesctibbler from @polpo makes an appearance too.

Unstable, inconvenient, cumbersome… are words I can describe this LC and the table it sits on. Happy #marchintosh

THE POSTS MUST FLOW!

i guess next month ( #MARCHintosh ) is perfect to work on fixing the powerbooks

For those wishing to join in on the #MARCHintosh and #GlobalTalk fun this year, I've made a new getting started guide that will help get up and running fairly easily. It includes some premade HD disk images too! Enjoy! 🍎 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

I recently acquired a Mac Plus. Taking advantage of #marchintosh, can someone make a video about putting a BlueSCSI internally on one? Extra points of you show how to configure and install a ROMinator. Please? 🥺🙏 #apple #macintosh #macplus

There's nothing I love more than booting up an old Macintosh, sharing some files, and maybe playing a couple of rounds of SpectreVR! #MARCHintosh will be here soon... get your #GlobalTalk rig ready! www.youtube.com/live/t0BwQOi...

Need a #MARCHintosh 2025 project? I have a batch of 2 tone multi color DB25 kits and assembled #BlueSCSI ready to go. Use MARCHINTOSH25-FREESHIP to get them in time! eric.scsi.blue/product/blue...

😲 MARCHintosh is almost upon us.. #MARCHintosh

I'm having an incredibly hard time doing anything that normally brings me joy right now. I've barely had any energy for any of my hobbies... But today I turned on my #GlobalTalk node, just out of habit ahead of #Marchintosh, and these letters from unknown friends put a smile on my face. Thank you!

There's a long story about the Pioneer 10 & 11 plaque and the controversy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer.... (I'm flagging this for "Nudity" since we seem to live in less enlightened times than in 1972.) My contribution to MARCHintosh, ha ha. #MARCHintosh

#MARCHintosh is almost upon us and tonight I'll be showing off the #ImageScribbler board on this kickoff stream hosted by @ronscompvids.bsky.social l! I hope to have both fully assembled boards and bare PCBs for DIYers available for sale soon so people can get their ImageWriter IIs on #GlobalTalk!
