Went back to the guy I visited last week for this. I was all set to leave it for someone else to deal with; I need another old Mac like I need a hole in my head, but... damnit, it's an SE/30. A.k.a. the best compact 68k Mac evar made. Arguably. When the hell am I ever going to get another shot at one of these? Never.

It's a resto project, but that's fine. I haven't tried to power it up yet. It's complete, and looks to be in decent shape, although I'm expecting every cap inside the thing to have popped and all the spinning media to have long seized up. I think I have enough spares to get it going. Grabbed a second mouse & another ADB keyboard with it too. The dude had a bunch of them, so why not? He also had some VERY tidy looking iMac G3s, but I already had one of those and literally didn't have anything for it to do. 😜
And yeah the Apple II 5.25" floppy doesn't go with it, but it looks cool sitting there. It was gonna end up in the bin otherwise. There's a disk in it but it's jammed in so I haven't figured out what it is yet.
(I already had the G4 Cube as previously mentioned. It's also in the shot because it looks cool.)

I also nabbed this surprisingly well regarded component->VGA upscaler at a thrift shop for cheap. Because I'm a dope I got it in my head that it handles composite video; it does not. I don't own component cables for any of my consoles. Oh well, eventually.
