By golly, I'm not upgrading until I'm good and ready!

Steps for reconditioning the 128K, 512K, Mac Plus, Mac SE, and Classic Macs:

1) Using a Torx driver, open case
2) Using various tools, remove everything inside it
3) In the now-open window that used to be the Mac's 9" monochrome monitor, hold up an iPad in the hole
4) super-glue the iPad inside the chamfered edges of the case where the monitor used to go
5) Reassemble back of Mac, allowing a portal for the iPad's cord.

Done!

I got a kick out of that one Babs, but Shooshie's recommended approach appears to be superior. I can hear it now… "Look at my new touch-screen Mac!"

Do you still have that old Mac case around Shoosh?

Indeed I do. It's got all the signatures in it. Heaven only knows what would happen if I plugged it in!
