Macintosh LC III Repair #MARCHintosh
For this year’s #MARCHintosh event, I take on the challenge to restore and upgrade an Apple Macintosh LC III computer from 1993. In this video, I replace the failed hard drive with a BlueSCSI v1 emulator and install Classic Mac OS 7.6.1, tear down and service the 1.44MB SuperDrive floppy disk drive, get an Apple IIe expansion card working with an Apple 5.25″ floppy drive with a little help from a « Why Cable? », and install a Motorola 68882 FPU.
