OT: Don’t find your collection like this

Post by mrtinb »

Going through my collection after moving to a new house. This Macintosh SE Education has not survived the forgotten battery. :cry:

Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb :!:
Looking forward to summer later in the year.

It’ll be a doner for some of the other SEs. This was a Macintosh SE Education. I cannot find that on any sites, so I think it maybe is a special European model.

Well, to be fair, most manufacturers of these ‘memory backup’ cells and batteries do say that their normal lifetime is five years…
