At last inside the beast....

It has been a while since I updated the blog on this project so please accept my apologies  life sometimes gets in the way a bit! So I received the screwdrivers through the post and proceeded to open up the Mac tonight. Wow lots of interesting old school tech in here... SCSI hard disk... CRT tube... bespoke power supplies.. network card with Made in USA stamped on it - I've not see a sticker with that on for a long while on tech hardware! So now I am in the teardown and strip out of all the components will begin on the next update. In other news thought of a name for the project - Apple Pie. On account of using a Raspberry Pi as the main driver and obviously the Apple computer origin.... Can you think of a better name? Suggest some in the  comments... Also thought of Raspberry Apple Pi.... Until next time so long for now. Promise to update this more frequently in future. Allocated a night in the week now to progress this project....
