This is fantastic. I own a Macintosh Classic that still worked fine the last time I booted it up (about a year ago). I've been afraid to keep it powered on for very long lest the capacitors leak. When I get some time (probably after school) I will look at replacing all of the capacitors with tantalum. Then see about finding a way to connect it to the network.
There's so much classic Mac software out there to be used. It's actually pretty amazing how productive you can be on a machine so many orders of magnitude slower than today's computers. The low latency of the classic Mac UI is a testament to the genius and hard work of Bill Atkinson. [1]
