Pulled a pair of Macintosh IIcx machines out of storage yesterday. It’s been close to two decades since these boxes have seen the light of day. Miraculously, neither of the original 35 year old batteries had explodified. Plenty of capacitor leakage, of course.

Imaging the bare hard drive pulled from a Power Macintosh 7500/100 to an external FireWire drive connected to my trusty Power Macintosh G3.

As one does.
