Description

Classic, iconic, vintage (32+ years old!) Apple Mac Plus. Model Macintosh Plus 1MB/M0001A. The computer is in A1 functional condition and in excellent cosmetic condition (other than the typical yellowing of the plastic case caused by age). No bulging or leaking capacitors. Disassembled, cleaned, and serviced. The 800KB floppy drive has been cleaned and lubricated - reads, writes, formats and ejects floppy disks without any issues. The screen is clear, bright and sharp. The Mac starts up normally with a loud bong when powered on. Includes a generic power cord and a bootable Mac OS 6.0.8 floppy disk (copy).

The problematic solder joints on the analog board have been reflowed. The flyback transformer has had some fresh corona dope applied. All power supply voltages have been adjusted to specs. The computer is ready to plug in and use! Note: the logic board was modified by the previous owner to support an internal hard disk - I have rarely seen such a mod, but it does work! I have further modified the logic board to enable it to connect to either an internal or an external BlueSCSI – addition of a diode and a floppy drive Berg connector.

This computer’s case is in great condition – super clean with nothing but very minute and superficial use marks. The computer has been extensively tested, sound, keyboard port, mouse port, internal and external floppy ports, SCSI port - all working as intended.

In addition to the keyboard and mouse ports, this Mac has built-in ports for connecting a printer, a modem, an external floppy disk drive (or floppy disk emulator) and a SCSI port to connect hard disks, hard disk emulators, scanners, etc..

This is one of a handful of Apple models which has the signatures of the design team (including Steve Jobs') molded on the inside of the case.

Everything is working as it should.... Superb, fully functioning conversation piece from the early years of personal computers. Just add a keyboard and mouse and it’s ready to use.
