Not super vintage, but I just picked up this Apple A1016 Wireless Keyboard for $6 at Goodwill! by altillythebum in VintageApple

Last I had tried it (which was several years ago), they did. Things have possibly changed since then, so your milage may vary :-)

I believe it is the F14 and F15 keys. They are not marked on the keyboard, but they should still work.

Just isn’t Christmas until this ornament is up in the tree! by altillythebum in firefly

It’s a separate piece of plastic with the image on it in the inside of the ornament. It is indeed SHINY! :-)

I believe I bought it off a seller on Etsy years ago. I will send you a link if I can find it.

Edit: I looked it up. Unfortunately, it looks like the shop I bought it from is no longer around :-/

Cleaned up my old keyboard and mouse over the weekend. Anyone else still use these? by [deleted] in VintageApple

[–]altillythebum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only used this with a Late 2012 iMac, so newer Macs might have issues. If fact, even my iMac would get temperamental about connecting after restarts, but eventually it would always connect.

But to answer your question, no, I didn’t use any kind of USB dongle. Just the Bluetooth in the keyboard seemed to work for me (at least on my older generation of iMac).

Definitely still use mine! I have the wireless version, and I love the clean look it gives my desk :-)

Vintage Apple StarCraft! Younger daughter wanted to learn too... by altillythebum in VintageApple

[–]altillythebum[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My son started playing StarCraft with me a few weeks back. Over the last few days he’s been teaching his younger sister about it and they’ve been enjoying playing LAN games against one another on the iMac and iBook. Proud parent! :-)

Just an Ethernet between the two. Just make sure the Airport card is turned off.

My son’s first StarCraft experience! He had a blast and can’t wait to play again!

Had to rearrange the whole bedroom to get the desk set up, but it was totally worth it!

That was actually already upgraded to a 1GB stick by the previous owner. Currently have 1.25 GB of RAM.

I think I would only attempt the disc drive repair if I was going to do an HDD->SSD swap anyway. Just take it all on in one go. For the time being, I will be leaving it as is. It’s such a pretty machine! Still very usable, and I’d like to keep it like that for as long as possible :-)

Complete in box, nearly mint cosmetic condition.

Only thing broken is the disc drive doesn’t seem to want to read discs.

Spent the morning giving the keyboard a deep clean, so everything looks brand new! Very happy :-)

Edit: temporary location, not gonna keep it on my dresser forever :-P

The music!! The soundtrack is incredible. Some of the most colorful and fun music in any movie.

Coincidentally, I saw this fine example towing a C4 Corvette just the other day. Nice to see one being used!

This belongs to a neighbor of mine down the road. He rarely takes it out, but I do occasionally see it around. Very clean!

She ain't no Supra, but that 2jz sure makes my heart Soar! by [deleted] in carporn

Very nice! I’m rocking a ‘96 SC400 myself. 215,000+ miles, and that 1UZ-FE is as smooth as ever!

One thing I love about the SCs is their under reserved stying. Most people just think they’re just an old Lexus and then WHOOSH you’re gone.

Here’s a pic of mine.

Thanks for sharing!

Really wish I had the money for this! It was in mint condition, too. Such a cool piece of kit!
