==================
MAINTENANCE  (1.0)
==================

  First a word about tools: many basic household items will serve you
  well when taking care of a Mac but not all.  Under no circumstances
  should you use a Dustbuster or other common handvac to clean
  electronic equipment.  Instead you need a specially designed vacuum
  cleaner with a conducting, grounded nozzle.  These normally cost
  about $40 in electronics supply stores.  Most paper towels are
  adequate for cleaning computer equipment.  However Scott brand towels
  do have lower rag content than any other commonly available towel and
  are less likely to leave paper fibers behind on your equipment.


HOW DO I CLEAN A KEYBOARD?  (1.1)
---------------------------------

  For basic cleaning a little isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol on a Scott
  towel works well.  Common household cleaners like Formula 409 also do
  a nice job.  To perform a more thorough cleaning you'll need to take
  the keyboard apart.  Depending on the type of keyboard you'll need
  one or more of a Phillips head screwdriver, a Torx T-15 screwdriver,
  and a special tool almost impossible to find when you really really
  need it which goes by the technical name of "key puller." 
  Disassemble the keyboard, pull off all the keys, and use a can of
  compressed air or an electronics vac to clean out all the dust
  bunnies that have mated and grown and had children and mated again
  and built apartment complexes and shopping malls inside your
  keyboard.  (I don't know why, but keyboards attract far more detritus
  than any other computer component.)  Finally if you spilled Mountain
  Dew, coffee or some other liquid substance into the keyboard, clean
  it with lukewarm water and a soft towel.  Use isopropyl alcohol on
  any remaining sticky spots.


HOW DO I CLEAN A SCREEN?  (1.2)
-------------------------------

  First turn off the monitor.  Spray a small amount of Windex or any 
  other common glass cleaner onto a paper towel, NOT directly onto 
  the screen.  Then wipe the paper towel over the screen.  Finally 
  wipe the screen clean with a dry paper towel.


HOW DO I CLEAN A MOUSE?  (1.3)
------------------------------

  Poor mouse tracking is normally a sign of dirty contacts.  To clean
  them get a cassette tape head cleaning solution from any audio store.
  Turn off the Mac.  Then unplug the mouse.  The bottom plate of the
  mouse that holds the ball in place can be removed by pushing down and
  twisting (like a child-proof medicine cap).  The ball will probably
  fall out when the plate is removed so be ready to catch it. There's
  nothing quite so annoying as having to crawl around on the floor
  looking under the furniture for a mouse ball.  Dip a cotton swab in
  the solution.  Then rub it on the three ball contacts until they
  appear clean to the eye.  Finally clean the ball itself with soap 
  and water and dry it with a paper towel.  At this point it wouldn't
  hurt to replace your mouse pad to.   A grungy mouse pad will make 
  even a clean mouse ball dirty in no time.  I often use a heavy
  bond paper taped to my desk rather than a mouse pad because it's so 
  easy and cheap to replace.
  

HOW DO I CLEAN A FLOPPY DRIVE?  (1.4)
-------------------------------------

  Normally you don't need to.  Several companies sell floppy drive
  cleaning kits that consist of nothing more than a disk and some
  cleaning fluid for anywhere from five to twenty-five dollars. 
  These are almost as pointless as the CD cleaning kits sold to
  overenthusiastic CD owners.  I'd only use one of these if I was
  already experiencing problems that were identifiably linked to the
  floppy drive rather than individual disks.  Cleaning a floppy drive
  should not be part of normal maintenance.  When you do need to clean
  a floppy drive, Apple recommends the 3M floppy drive cleaning kit.
  
  If you have a vacuum cleaner designed for electronic equipment, you
  can always run it across the floppy slit, but even that is rarely
  necessary.  Or you can disassemble the Mac and use a can of
  compressed air to blow the dust out of the floppy drive.  Don't do
  this without disassembling the Mac first though since otherwise
  you'll just blow dust deeper inside your computer.  And even when the
  Mac is taken apart, be careful to blow the air AWAY from the motor. 
  If you blow air into the drive motor, you'll forcing dust into it and
  make the drive more likely to fail.


HOW DO I CLEAN THE INSIDE OF MY MAC?  (1.5)
-------------------------------------------

  I don't advise taking a Mac apart just to clean it; but if you've
  already dismantled it as part of another upgrade or repair, blowing
  accumulated dust away with a can of compressed air won't hurt.  You
  can also use a specially designed computer vacuum cleaner, but don't
  use a normal hand vac like a Dustbuster as there's a small chance of
  damage to your Mac from the static electricity it builds up.
  
  On the other hand if during one of those late night football games
  through the halls of your office someone drop-kicked a half-full can
  of Mountain Dew straight through the uprights of your cubicle onto
  your Mac (or if you've spilled a soda or some other messy substance
  into the Mac in some less creative fashion), you will need to clean
  it out.  Unplug the Mac and let it sit for at least an hour.  It is
  essential to give all the parts of your Mac time to discharge since
  you'll be cleaning it with water.  Take the Mac apart as described in
  the next section.  Then clean it with lukewarm tap water.  Use a soft
  toothbrush to clean anything that doesn't come off with water alone. 
  Let the disassembled Mac air dry for a couple of days, (Don't even
  think about using a hair dryer.) and then put it back together.



===========================
PROBLEMS AND REPAIRS  (2.0)
===========================

HOW DO I OPEN A COMPACT MAC?  (2.1)
-----------------------------------

  You need a Torx T-15 screwdriver, at least eight inches long,
  available from any decent electronics supply shop, and a special tool
  referred to as a "Mac Cracker."  (In a pinch you can use a spring
  loaded paper clip or even a three-sided ruler.)   Before starting
  clear off a large, flat work area and get an ash tray, glass, or
  other container to hold the various small screws you need to remove.
  
  First disconnect all cables, most especially the power cable. For
  maximum safety you should only work on your Mac after it's been
  turned off for an hour so that various high-voltage capacitors have
  had time to fully discharge.  remove the programmer's switch if one
  is installed.  Then lay the Mac face down on a soft towel in your
  work space.  If you're working on a Plus or earlier Mac remove the
  battery cover and battery.  Then unscrew all the screws with the T-15
  screwdriver.  There are four of them on SE's and Classics, two hidden
  inside the handle and two above the ports on the bottom of the Mac.
  The Plus and earlier Macs have five screws including one under the
  battery cover.  After the screws are removed, wedge the cracking tool
  into the seam and pry the two pieces of the case apart.  Then
  carefully lift the back cover off and place it down in your work
  space.  Finally inside you'll find a metallic RF shield covering the
  ports which can easily be removed.


NOW THAT I'VE OPENED MY MAC HOW MIGHT I ELECTROCUTE MYSELF?  (2.2)
------------------------------------------------------------------

  Like most computers a Macintosh contains lots of exciting high voltage
  equipment that can deliver shocks ranging from mildly surprising to
  motherboard-frying to lethal.  Since compact Macs cram the high
  voltage picture tube and power supply into the same cramped space
  shared with the motherboard, they're particularly dangerous. If
  you're intent on committing computer-assisted suicide, here are a few
  simple procedures that will greatly enhance your chance of success:

* Be sure the computer and all cables are plugged in when you 
  work on it.  It's difficult (though not impossible) to get a good, 
  solid shock without at least 120 volts of AC surging through the 
  works.

* Wear lots of metal jewelry.  Long, dangling gold bracelets make 
  the most effective unexpected electrical contact between the picture 
  tube and your heart.

* Naturally you yourself want to be nice and clean before working 
  on your Mac so take a long shower.  Don't bother to dry off though.  
  The heat from your Mac should dry you just fine.

* Pay special attention to the picture tube and flyback 
  transformer.  Fondle them.  Know them.  Love them.  If you're still 
  conscious take apart the power supply.  (That's the silver box with 
  the big red warning letters on it.)

* Invite all your pets and small children to watch you work.  
  However there's no reason to invite an adult who might have the 
  presence of mind to call 911 should you be injured.


WHERE CAN I GET MY MAC FIXED?  (2.3)
------------------------------------

  If it's been less than a year since you bought the Mac, then by all
  means bring it to a local Apple authorized dealer to get it fixed
  under warranty for free.  Not all dealers are created equal, and you
  don't have to get your Mac repaired by the same dealer you bought it
  from.  Ask around locally to find out which one has the best
  reputation for fast, dependable, hassle-free service.
  
  After the warranty has expired an Apple dealer is generally not the
  best (and certainly not the cheapest) place to have your Mac fixed. 
  A typical Apple authorized repair consists of swapping out the entire
  malfunctioning subsystem.  It's not at all uncommon for Apple dealers
  to repair small problems by motherboard swaps that cost almost as
  much or even more than a new Mac.  For out of warranty repairs your
  best bet is an unauthorized repair shop that specializes in component
  level repairs.  Be sure to find one that specializes in Macintosh
  repairs, not a PC shop that does Macs on the side.  Again seek advice
  from local bulletin boards and user groups.  In the New York City
  area I unconditionally recommend TekServe, (212) 929-3645.
  
  If there are no reliable local repair shops, a number of mail-order
  repair shops advertise in the back pages of MacUser and MacWorld. 
  Personally I find it horribly inconvenient to package and ship a Mac
  just to get a flyback transformer replaced, but most of these shops
  do offer reliable repairs at very competitive prices and many people
  on the net swear by one or another.


CAN YOU RECOMMEND ANY GOOD BOOKS ABOUT MAC REPAIR?  (2.4)
---------------------------------------------------------

  Larry Pina has written several excellent guides to repairing Macs. 
  Mac Classic & SE Repair and Upgrade Secrets (Peachpit Press, $28,
  ISBN #1-56609-022-9) covers the SE, SE/30, Classic, and Classic II. 
  This volume offers moderately detailed instructions for someone with
  prior electronics experience to diagnose common problems, do
  component level repairs and perform upgrades on compact Macs.
  Macintosh Repair and Upgrade Secrets (Hayden Books $24.95, ISBN
  #0-672-48452-8) is an earlier version of this book which covers
  compact Macs from the 128K to the SE and the Lisa.  Pina's sequel,
  Macintosh II Repair and Upgrade secrets, $39.95, ISBN #0-13-929530-5,
  offers similar coverage of the Mac II family of Machines.  All these
  books include valuable diagnostic software on a bundled disk.  Before
  delving into this volume you should be comfortable wielding a
  soldering iron on expensive equipment. Finally he's also written the
  somewhat less technical and more detailed Dead Mac Scrolls (PeachPit
  Press, ISBN #0-940235-25-0, $32) which offers symptom-based
  procedures for diagnosing and repairing many common problems.  This
  book includes good advice about how to find and deal with a repair
  shop.  All four books deserve a place in the library of anyone who
  intends to wield a soldering iron on their Mac.


THE SCREEN ON MY COMPACT MAC IS JITTERING.  (2.5)
-------------------------------------------------

  Nine times out of ten this is a symptom of a failing flyback
  transformer.  It may be accompanied by high-pitched whines and even
  the smell of burnt ozone.  This is a warning that the demise of the
  Mac is imminent!  Turn it off and don't use it again till the video
  is fixed.  If the flyback transformer is in this bad a shape, chances
  are that other components either already have failed or soon will. 
  However many expensive parts of the video subsystem are probably
  working just fine so this is one common problem that can often be
  fixed much more cheaply by a component-level repair shop than by an
  authorized dealer who'll likely swap out the entire video board.


===============
UPGRADES  (3.0)
===============

WHAT MACS ARE UPGRADEABLE TO THE POWERPC?  (3.1)
------------------------------------------------

  Apple will provide logic board replacements for all Centris, Quadra
  and WorkGroup Server models except the Quadra 700, 900 and 950. 
  There should also be logic board replacements for the IIvx, IIvi, LC
  475, 520, 550, and 575, Performa 475, 476, 550, and 600. Upgraded AV
  Macs will lose their special video capabilities, at least initially. 
  Apple will also make available PowerPC processor upgrade boards that
  fit into the PDS slots of the Quadra 605, 610, 650, 700, 800, 900,
  and 950 as well as the Centris 610 and 650 and the Performa 475 and
  476.  Macs upgraded via a PDS card run at twice the speed of the
  system clock.  Thus a 25 MHz 68040 Mac with a PDS accelerator will
  become a 50 MHz PowerMac.  You'll be able to disable the accelerator
  if you have old software that's not PowerPC compatible or that just
  plain runs faster on the older hardware. 68030 desktop Macs with
  expansion slots will be upgradeable via third party accelerator
  cards.  Daughtercard upgrades for the Powerbook 500 and Duo 280
  series will be available sometime late this summer or early fall.


CAN I INCREASE THE SPEED OF MY MAC BY ACCELERATING THE CLOCK?  (3.2)
--------------------------------------------------------------------

  Apple engineers designed the Mac IIsi to run at 25 megahertz. Apple
  marketeers made them reduce the speed by 20% so as not to hurt sales
  of the IIci.  Thus with various caveats it is generally safe to
  accelerate a IIsi to 25 MHz by changing the clock chip.  All other
  Mac models were designed to run at the speeds they normally run at so
  "clock-chipping" them is a much iffier proposition. Compact Macs,
  PowerBooks and the Mac II, IIx and IIcx as well as the LC and LC II
  use the same oscillator to time various external circuitry as they
  use to time the CPU so they almost never work if the clock chip is
  replaced.  Most other Macs seem to work for at least a while when
  sped up by as much as twenty percent.  Somewhere beyond a twenty
  percent increase in clock speed most Macs experience serial port
  problems though the exact level of safe increase varies from Mac to
  Mac even within the same model and configuration.  Other problems may
  surface over time as the extra heat generated by the faster speed
  increases the wear and tear on the insides of the Mac.
  
  Performing this upgrade is not for the faint of heart.  It is quite
  complex and requires soldering, replacement of several parts, and
  other non-trivial procedures.  If done improperly it can result in
  major, expensive damage to your Mac.  I am not going to give detailed
  instructions for doing this here.  If you do want to do this
  yourself, check out

  
  
  
  
  


  For people who are willing to open their Mac and swap out RAM or a
  hard drive but don't feel comfortable soldering on their motherboard,
  KS Labs, (614) 373-0353, offers $165 kits that more safely (no
  soldering) accelerate the clock.  These kits include a clip-on
  oscillator plus a heat sink and fan to keep the faster circuitry
  cool.


CAN I ADD AN FPU TO MY MAC?  CAN I REPLACE THE 68LC040 WITH A 68040? (3.3)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  All 68020 and 68030 desktop Macs that did not ship with an FPU standard
  (i.e. the IIsi and LC series) have special slots that can accommodate
  an FPU card.  All Macs that have the FPUless 680LC40 CPU run just
  fine if that chip is replaced with a full 68040 that includes an FPU.
  All PowerPC Macs include an integrated FPU.  There is no way to add
  only an FPU to a 68000 Mac like an SE though some third party
  accelerators do include FPU's as well as faster CPU's.



============================
THANKS FOR THE MEMORY  (4.0)
============================

WHAT KIND OF MEMORY SHOULD I USE IN MY MAC?  (4.1)
--------------------------------------------------

  The easiest way to get this question answered is to ask your friendly,
  mail-order memory dealer.  If you tell them what model of Mac you
  have, what memory you already have in your Mac, and how much you want
  to add, they should be able to tell you exactly what you need. 
  Memory comes in many configurations.  All desktop Macs from the Plus
  through the Quadra 700, 900, and 950 use 30-pin SIMMs that normally
  need to be added four at a time (except in the SE, the Plus and the
  Classics where they're added two at a time and in the IIfx which uses
  special 64-pin SIMMs that still need to be added four at a time). 
  Later Quadras, the LC III, and the Centris's use 72-pin SIMMs that
  can be added one SIMM at a time.  NuBus based PowerMacs also use 
  72-pin SIMMs but need  them installed in pairs.  All portable Macs 
  (PowerBooks, Duos, and the Portable) have one RAM slot to hold a special 
  card with extra RAM.  Finally the PCI bus based PowerMacs use 110-pin
  DIMM's (dual inline memory modules) that can be installed singly but 
  should be installed in pairs for maximum performance.
  
  The chart below gives details for each model of Mac.  For each model
  it lists how much RAM is soldered to the motherboard, how many slots
  are available to hold more RAM, what size memory is available for
  those slots, different possible RAM configurations, what type of
  memory is used (30-pin SIMM, 72-pin SIMM, or card type,) the minimum
  speed of the RAM you should use in that model, and how many SIMMs or
  cards need to be replaced or added at the same time.
