Vintage Apple M0116 Adb Keyboard For Mac
Up for sale is a very rare S820 Clare-Pendar Keyboard. We recently acquired this unit. Have not tested but seems to be complete. Sold as is Clare-Pendar Series S820 is a tall reed switch keyboard switch series from Clare-Pendar. The European counterpart is Clare/Pendar high profile reed, but the North American and European series have different designs. These switches have been found with Clare-Pendar branding. The top of the switch has two screw holes to allow it to be secured into a mounting plate; retention clips are not used.
Recesses in the body of the switch appear to leave room for the screw shafts.
I just bought a Macintosh SE a few days ago (for an exorbitant $1:D ), and in my excited haste to try it out, I popped my System 6 floppy (normally used with my Mac Plus) in and watched it boot right up. However, the SE uses an ADB keyboard and mouse, which I do not currently own, as the Plus uses its own connectors.
I will be looking for ADB equipment soon anyway (not only for the SE, but my LC III and PowerMac 7100 as well), but in the meantime. How can I get my floppy back out? Is there a way to eject it without tearing everything open? If it's too dangerous, I could just wait until I obtain a k/b and mouse I suppose. I'm gonna guess the answer is no to this idea, but I have a serial cable and SCSI cable as well. Is there any way I could hook up my Plus through AppleTalk or something (which I'm very unfamiliar with) to be able to send commands (like 'eject that floppy') to the SE? I don't have a boot floppy for the Plus while it's stuck in the SE though, so I'm not too optimistic.

The diskette should pop out. Jeff - - You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.

Hello, - On Sun, 9/26/10, Glen Waterman wrote: up. However, the SE uses an ADB keyboard and mouse, which I do not currently own, as the Plus uses its own connectors. I will be looking for ADB equipment soon anyway (not only for the SE, but my LC III and PowerMac 7100 as well), I congratulate you on facing the.reverse. of the usual case.:) Most folks seem to be have plenty of ADB peripherals on hand, only to rescue an old Plus that has long since shed its mouse and keyboard. That's when the fun begins. The DE-9 Plus mice aren't too difficult to find, but the Plus keyboards always seem to go for Silly Money because of their unusual 4P4C connector.
Well, that, and the fact that you're competing against new Mac 128/512K owners to get a working keyboard for your machine. I imagine that there are a few of those earlier Macs floating around sans mouse and keyboard, waiting to be discovered.
(Incidentally, does anyone know what Apple gave as the original service life for the Mac/512K/Plus keyboards assuming they did express it in years? I know that the keyswitches are rated for a minimum of 10 million cycles, but I'm not sure how that translates into time as far as 'typical' usage is concerned).
Anyway, you'll be laughing when you start shopping for ADB peripherals: in contrast with Macintosh/Mac Plus periperhals, they are cheap and plentiful. If you want to pick up the stock keyboard that came with the SE, you'll want the Model M0116. The stock mouse was the Apple Desktop Bus Mouse, Model No. Both are pretty common, but if you don't particularly care what goes with what, (so long as they work) you'll have even more choices available to you.
but in the meantime. How can I get my floppy back out? As others have suggested, you should be able to use the manual eject hole to get your disk out. IIRC, the eject arm you're pressing on with the paper clip is sheet metal, so slow and easy does it.:) You might also want to think about relubricating the floppy drive, as the original grease has likely dried up after nearly a quarter-century. I'll let someone else comment on how this is/isn't a good idea, and how to go about it. Best, James Fraser Gregg Eshelman 26/9/2010, 15:52 น.

Also in the desperate measure's category.:) Years ago, with my SE/30 still in production but out of warranty, I had to bend a tab in it a touch more every six months or so, to allow it to work properly.
