Apple ADB keyboard and mouse

[chronic8000]

Hi everyone!

I have an Apple Macintosh IIvx and since no one seems interested in buying on here I thought i'd get it working and up and running myself. I only have the base unit and at first I didn't have any molex power cables as I only use laptops now so I finally managed to get one and power it up with nothing else attached. Nothing happened at first and I wasn't sure what the issue was so I messed around with it a few times over a few days and now it finally powers up from the switch on the back and I get the chime. Then I hear the operating system loading from the quite loud Quantum SCSI drive inside so I presume that is Mac OS loading and it's working fine but now I have a problem. I have no way of outputting video on it and no way of hooking up keyboard and mouse. Seriously has anyone looked at the price of ADB keyboards and mice now? .

You might have missed the main point of the rules,

NO price discussion.

I bought my adaptors from USA, the items were VERY cheap and postage was around £9

a boxed ADB mouse sold recently for under £6.50 see here https://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?86194-ADB-mouse-new-and-sealed

you just have to look and be patient.

OK but you just broke your own rule. No talking about prices.

no i did not, I referenced a recent sale..(research is what we encourage you to do so you know the value of an item or if you're paying too much)

i didnt say how much they can go for on eBay.. big difference, go read the rules buddy.

thanks

I'm currently still sorting stuff from my house move. If you need a K/B and mouse still let me know I might be able to spare them.
