Hi, first time posting on lemmy, I hope yall will enjoy my late grandfather's happy lil Mac Plus! Maxed out at 4MB of RAM and modded with power through SCSI and a low rpm fan. That's a fully working ImageWriter on the left. :)

Nice setup. I grew up using classic macs. Powerbooks, Macintoshes, Powermacs. All such beautiful and functional machines (until an Error of Type 2 occurred anyway). I miss that era of being amazed at these wonderful computers, with seemingly new features every year. MIDI. CD-ROM. Netscape!

Same, I discovered computer networking on those too, first with the Minitel then the Internet, that was magic! Everything seemed to promise endless possibilities!
