Computer Clan I love that computer I wish I could find one I found a whole bunch of them in high school Under this storage unit I wish I could have bought one of them I play but one of them in elementary school number munchers was the best game and there was a dragon game on there I don't remember what it was but can you play that game on the computer I want to see it for her soundtrack please play it if you can find it
So happy you are enjoying this! The original logic board did work when it left my house, but it need some work. The volume is pretty low. Awesome that you got both boards running! Oh, and that hard drive connector was already broken, but as you discovered, it still works just fine ;)
I thought it was odd when it didn’t power on for me. It worked fine the day before. Store was busy and I didn’t want to disappoint, so I tried the mystic board and drive and it worked! This video made my day. It was fun watching you explore the games I put on there. They were a few of my childhood faves. I have more vintage, rare Apple stuff. If you’re ever interested in doing another video, just let me know.
I remember seeing this briefly at the campus computer store. It was a fairly flawed and short-lived product. There was another tv-capture-oriented mac that came out a little later, that had better features. I can't remember what it was called. It even did adequate (240p) video capture, which was mind-blowing in the early 90s.
are you talking about the Power Macintosh G3 all in one? which also does video capture from an external source but I'm not sure if it came with a TV Tuner......
Man, my memory is hazy. I think this was a few years before the G3 came out. 95 or 96 at the absolute latest, because I hadn't set foot on that campus since 1996. I think it was this Centris: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_Quadra_660AV
Depends on your school. At my school any computers/IT equipment including audio gear is property of the IT department, I asked the sysad if I could take a bunch of junk computers and they said yeah go for it. So basically YMMV I guess Apple admins are bigger assholes :D
Back when these came out, I was dying to get the black keyboard/mouse for my Mac II. Ended up scoring a nice NeXT adb keyboard on ebay. Even the power key worked!

‘It just feels so black’ - CC 2019. Also I’ve been waiting for this. Also. Congrats on 100K thank you for being my childhood with funny content for me to enjoy.
I had one of these that my grandma gave me when she upgraded. It was used as a TV In my parents garage for years. No idea what eventually happened to it.
spectrum/Charter cable boxes still support the Coaxial output along with RCA(Y,R,W), We still use RCA CRT Televisions (i love the sound of a warming tube), Dish Network and Direct TV both service boxes with same support. Your Tuner should work granted it works/continues to work
Huh. I know someone with a Spectrum box. I may have to test that. Even though the coaxial connection is the same, do you think the Mac TV's would be able to interpret the signal-given the huge generational gap between devices?
get a digital antenna and one of those converter boxes and you can do tv on that, it's most likely what will need to happen due to the analog shut off and what not
@@dyter424 If there are they are really low powered and usually spanish or religious stations on the lower VHF band. Atlanta has one, ch4, and it is Univision I think. You need a massive outdoor VHF antenna just to get a really fuzzy but watchable signal from it from only 15 miles away. You could also plug in a cable box or satellite box into it, but it would only be 480i.
Me:watching tv while drinking coffee Ken:watching tv with a mac Me:spits coffee in to the logic board. Me:YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO DO THIS WIZARD SHIT
The screws for the back panel were optional locking screws to prevent the board, drive, and RAM from being stolen, like at a school or work environment.
I absolutely loved the video. Its always nice to come across a local computer vlogger. I actually saw this exact system on Craigslist Chicago and was very curious about it.
Wow, they had one of these in the computer lab at my university. I wanted to steal it... It was so sexy, the speakers sounded great and the trinitron screen was simply unobtainable on my student budget.
Im sure someone else has mentioned this, but you are no doubt aware that there was a black Apple Mac model in the 90's that being the black Performa 5400. My dad owned it back in the day.
I got one thing to say to you if you want to get the analog TV to part like the tuna part to work just get one of those analog composite video to analog video signal things that you can set the channel to and then you can set the channel on the TV and it will work till if you want to get it to work just plug like a composite video into the tuner or the the transmitter and have a cable connected to it or if you have a RF booster you can make it Wireless so good luck :)
It does anything in here that doesn't say anything right it's probably because of my microphone because I said it all to my microphone so I can text it out for me sorry
I remember we used to prank our teacher because she had the external apple speakers, make a blank file on the desktop, crank them to max volume and when she would throw it out "OHHHH IIIII LOOOOVE TRASH!" incredibly loud! Good times.
I never EVER heard or seen such a device. I'm actually proud you own it and you envision some projects with it. I really like your channel a lot. (And I'm not even much of an Apple guy)
You’re excitement is delightful. You feel about vintage computers how I feel about vintage synthesisers and samplers, like the amazing 68000 based Ensoniq EPS16+ (check out The Daydream Sound on TH-cam if you want to here it at its best!) But yeah, that childlike glee is priceless. Never grow up dude! I do feel that kind of glee for some vintage computers like my recent Amiga 500+ aquisition, but that is again quite musically based. For example, the Amiga had 4 channels that could play basic waveforms or PCM samples in crunchy 8 but glory, this would be enough but with a special piece of assembler code (that people off the internet taught me!) you can ring modulate any two channels for weird doctor who noises! And I can then use these sounds in my music. I guess you get off on video editing, codecaphilia? that’s cool. So yeah, anyhow, thanks for the great vid.
Thank you, and I'm glad we're on the same page! And yes, I do love video. I actually test drove Premiere 1.0 in another episode, and I have a "part 2" of Premiere 1.0 coming soon! Here's the episode, by the way. I think you'll like it: bit.ly/clan2K7Hpyx
Cool! I’m planning a new channel for the year that focuses on obsolete (yet amazing) computer and Synthesizer Sound/music production. Once I’m up and running, perhaps we could do a small collab? Thanks!
I bought a Macintosh-TV with the same problems. I just had to put a new battery in it and re-seat the logic board and it worked. I really like the display. The plastics are fragile in my MacTV too. Easy to break. My CDROM drive broke and I could not find a used one so I use an external SCSI Apple i300 CDROM drive. I really like the look of this MacTV too. I also have a Performa 575 with Mystic logic board. It would be nice if you could add Ethernet to this MacTV original logic board. Macfixer.com is a website that your can download software and games from. Supports old Mac web browser. You can install and run Nortons Utilities on this computer and perform a health check.
I actually saw one of these guys for free on Facebook a few weeks back. Unfortunately it was two hours away from me and it was broken, otherwise I would have taken it because I'm masochistic enough to do a second 68k Mac recap despite hating doing one on my LC II.
I'm not sure when Apple started using those screws on the back panel, but I suspect it had something to do with how people were going to a store like CompUSA and sliding the mobo out of Performas to steal the RAM and hard drives out of them back in the day, lol. But yeah, on Macs of that vintage re-seating the motherboard is sometimes the only fix needed to get them working. Try spraying some Deoxit on the contacts and re-seating it a few times to clean up any crud that might be in there.
That is not a microphone above the Apple logo. It is the manual CD eject hole to remove a caddy if there is no power or a stuck caddy. The Macintosh TV did not have a microphone.
@@ComputerClan It should be worse quality haha. BUT, you get to test out the tuner! I'm not sure if there are any analog stations left for rabbit ears to pick up here in the US.
Wow I forgot about number munchers, I use to play the old Apple 2 version all the time in computer class. The version you where playing looks way newer then the one I played lol.
It’s quite possible that Krazy Ken is the lost offspring of them. I appreciate you coming by, and I hope you enjoy your stay! There’s more Krazy Ken at: krazyken.thecomputerclan.com
Try putting Ferazel's Wand (or at least the demo for it) on there! It's a real fun game from my childhood that I almost never hear anyone ever talk about!
It would work out great for those who STILL have analog cable and it had a way to still access an online TV guide listing on it. Believe it or not there are still towns in the that still have analog cable, usually deep in the mountains. I used to have an Ati All-in-wonder Rage Pro 8mb in the late 90s and thought that was revolutionary. With Win98, I had dual screens and was able to pull up an online TV guide on one screen (or a web browser like Netscape or something) while having the TV tuner card playing analog cable channels on the other monitor. That was in 1998/99. I had no idea that Apple had already done this 5 years prior. Go figure.
Thanks for sharing. A big difference between your setup and this computer (although there is a 5 year gap) is this Macintosh cannot support a second display, and when you're in TV mode, you cannot see the desktop. However, you can be on the desktop and hear the audio from the tuner. I show more of the TV functionality in the "part 2" follow-up coming soon. Stay tuned…
@@toddstewart9070 The Tuner has to be build by ATI. ATI was around in the mid 1980. that one with soilded on board must be very expensive. ATI all in wonder AGP 8mb video card, first one capable video recording. 2 other model 1 was pci TV tuner add on 4 MB. other one could be an tuner 2MB with ISA interface.
Makes sense that ATI had something to do with it. I still have an old 286 that has an ATI EGA Wonder card in it from 1987. I just wasn't aware of any kind of TV tuner pre-1997 or so. I didn't know that they made an ISA TV tuner card either. I do remember the 4mb PCI tuner cards though, and the add-on TV cards. The All-in-wonder Radeon 32mb ddr was the best analog TV card I ever had. I captured 100s of VHS tapes to DVD around 2001, aswell as TV shows off analog cable with that card (with my AMD Tbird 1400mhz cpu) and the quality was great using VirtualDub+AVIsynth+CCE. Now, I use a 4 tuner cablecard device with Windows Media Center. Best DVR you could ever have, and you can keep whatever you record with it in HD :)
@@toddstewart9070 I don't want to sound weird, in my early 20'S. i made a joke with a selected computer geek pals. I said let play Card not regular Card. let play (Video cards) put a number on the top side of the video as Ace queen jack and Kings. 1 of my friend said to me you know the back of all the card. I said you are right I can let which video card on the back by the boards between Nvida and ATI in from 1995 - 2002. it didn't happen but was a good though in 2002.
A minor nitpick: That "original" hard drive was actually a replacement pulled from a LaCie external drive at some point, as indicated by the LaCie label. Also, the Mystic board, which comes from the LC/Performa 575, is a better board overall. 33MHz LC 040 Processor vs 16MHz 030, more RAM (both boards are currently maxed out), and better video (up to 16-bit color on the computer side vs. being limited to 8-bit indexed color on the computer side.) Obviously, you do miss out on the TV functions, but the Mac TV could only grab still images from the TV side anyway. Depending on where you live at, you'll probably not be able to pick up any TV signals on the Mac TV's Analog tuner, as many countries have switched over to all-digital broadcasts. Here in the US, the majority of analog broadcasts were stopped in 2009, and most remaining analog broadcasts stopped a couple years ago. There are still some "translator" channels in some parts of the US, which were originally scheduled to have switched off already, but apparently this was delayed until 2021.
Ooh, thanks for that info. As for the TV part… yeah, I won't have much luck with analog cable, but in the follow-up episode, I'll still experiment with hooking up a DVD player and a mini game console. Possible for a second follow-up, I may try converting digital to RF, and see if I can receive it through the tuner.
Remember, it was a Mystic board-not the original. I still have a Color Classic myself. It’ll be featured on Krazy Ken soon. But in the meantime, here’s another video I made about it: bit.ly/clan2OCFVOj
You didn't show The Grouch in action! Toss something you don't want (like an empty folder) into the trash and select "Empty Trash" from the "Special" menu. Be sure the volume is turned up first.
The highest it supports is 7.6 (which I will address in a follow-up). I'm sure there's some hack to get OS 9 on there, but if I recall correctly, OS 9 is PowerPC-only. The Macintosh TV is 68K-based. It may be impossible to do.
@@AceSimGaming i have the circuitboard pattern in two diffrent display resoultions i can e-mail it to u for $50 and your e-mail and it will be sent to u within the hour
Had one for a year, it was dog slow. All the tv thing did was allow you to watch tv stations and didn't even have much for I/O. Granted it was nice having a color mac briefly, but really just a huge paperweight. I had to give it away in a donation pile to get rid of it. No one wanted it. Now I see one for 1300 on ebay. lol

3:05 Wait, wait... LaCie owned Quantum?
[Searching Wikipedia...]

I had an LC-580 at work and when I saw this thing in a thrift store 10 years later, a wave of nostalgia and envy washed over me.
My school has one sitting in the library. Asked the computer guys if I could do anything with it, sadly they refused :(
Robert Brown where they gonna do anything whit it?
Øyvind Svanevik It’s school property. They can’t just give it away. He’ll probably have to ask administration about it.

Try putting Ferazel's Wand (or at least the demo for it) on there! It's a real fun game from my childhood that I almost never hear anyone ever talk about!
It would work out great for those who STILL have analog cable and it had a way to still access an online TV guide listing on it. Believe it or not there are still towns in the that still have analog cable, usually deep in the mountains. I used to have an Ati All-in-wonder Rage Pro 8mb in the late 90s and thought that was revolutionary. With Win98, I had dual screens and was able to pull up an online TV guide on one screen (or a web browser like Netscape or something) while having the TV tuner card playing analog cable channels on the other monitor. That was in 1998/99. I had no idea that Apple had already done this 5 years prior. Go figure.
Thanks for sharing. A big difference between your setup and this computer (although there is a 5 year gap) is this Macintosh cannot support a second display, and when you're in TV mode, you cannot see the desktop. However, you can be on the desktop and hear the audio from the tuner. I show more of the TV functionality in the "part 2" follow-up coming soon. Stay tuned…
Still, for 1993 that was quite innovative.
@@toddstewart9070 The Tuner has to be build by ATI. ATI was around in the mid 1980. that one with soilded on board must be very expensive. ATI all in wonder AGP 8mb video card, first one capable video recording. 2 other model 1 was pci TV tuner add on 4 MB. other one could be an tuner 2MB with ISA interface.
Makes sense that ATI had something to do with it. I still have an old 286 that has an ATI EGA Wonder card in it from 1987. I just wasn't aware of any kind of TV tuner pre-1997 or so. I didn't know that they made an ISA TV tuner card either. I do remember the 4mb PCI tuner cards though, and the add-on TV cards. The All-in-wonder Radeon 32mb ddr was the best analog TV card I ever had. I captured 100s of VHS tapes to DVD around 2001, aswell as TV shows off analog cable with that card (with my AMD Tbird 1400mhz cpu) and the quality was great using VirtualDub+AVIsynth+CCE. Now, I use a 4 tuner cablecard device with Windows Media Center. Best DVR you could ever have, and you can keep whatever you record with it in HD :)
@@toddstewart9070 I don't want to sound weird, in my early 20'S. i made a joke with a selected computer geek pals. I said let play Card not regular Card. let play (Video cards) put a number on the top side of the video as Ace queen jack and Kings.
1 of my friend said to me you know the back of all the card. I said you are right I can let which video card on the back by the boards between Nvida and ATI in from 1995 - 2002.
it didn't happen but was a good though in 2002.

A minor nitpick: That "original" hard drive was actually a replacement pulled from a LaCie external drive at some point, as indicated by the LaCie label.
Also, the Mystic board, which comes from the LC/Performa 575, is a better board overall. 33MHz LC 040 Processor vs 16MHz 030, more RAM (both boards are currently maxed out), and better video (up to 16-bit color on the computer side vs. being limited to 8-bit indexed color on the computer side.) Obviously, you do miss out on the TV functions, but the Mac TV could only grab still images from the TV side anyway.
Depending on where you live at, you'll probably not be able to pick up any TV signals on the Mac TV's Analog tuner, as many countries have switched over to all-digital broadcasts. Here in the US, the majority of analog broadcasts were stopped in 2009, and most remaining analog broadcasts stopped a couple years ago. There are still some "translator" channels in some parts of the US, which were originally scheduled to have switched off already, but apparently this was delayed until 2021.
Ooh, thanks for that info. As for the TV part… yeah, I won't have much luck with analog cable, but in the follow-up episode, I'll still experiment with hooking up a DVD player and a mini game console. Possible for a second follow-up, I may try converting digital to RF, and see if I can receive it through the tuner.
where do i buy this?
You don’t get the remote that usually comes with the Machintosh TV?
I guess the seller didn’t have it. But it’s okay. I can always get one ; )
I don't even want one of these.
I just want the keyboard and mouse.
15:02 Looks it’s the illiminati!
I didn’t know that the old macs had Trinton screens
Yeah! : D
Took the board out of a color classic?!?!? They're some of the most desirable computers apple ever made!
Remember, it was a Mystic board-not the original. I still have a Color Classic myself. It’ll be featured on Krazy Ken soon. But in the meantime, here’s another video I made about it: bit.ly/clan2OCFVOj
Cool.. Subscribed
Thank you. Enjoy your stay : )
This looks similar to the AIO models of Performa Macintoshes my middle school history class had.
The case shape was similar to several models. Yes.
10:40 when You said what opened it was AOL schedule
It looks the exact same as the Macintosh Perfoma 550 except it is black in said of beige
You didn't show The Grouch in action! Toss something you don't want (like an empty folder) into the trash and select "Empty Trash" from the "Special" menu. Be sure the volume is turned up first.
It's Oscar from Sesame Street
wowww this is awesome
This also resembles the Macintosh Performa PowerPC.
I'd bet the 7.6.1 drive would boot up on the other board. It won't have the TV software on it though.
is it possible to update Macintosh TV to os 9 ??????
The highest it supports is 7.6 (which I will address in a follow-up). I'm sure there's some hack to get OS 9 on there, but if I recall correctly, OS 9 is PowerPC-only. The Macintosh TV is 68K-based. It may be impossible to do.
I have the same desktop patern circuit board
It looks cool and I wanna set it as my wallpaper but I cant seem to find it online.
@@AceSimGaming give me your E-mail address and I'll send u the desktop theme
@@jjohnson71958 hook me up 😂, ethanturner43@gmail.com
@@greyfiveys ok
@@AceSimGaming i have the circuitboard pattern in two diffrent display resoultions i can e-mail it to u for $50 and your e-mail and it will be sent to u within the hour
Had one for a year, it was dog slow. All the tv thing did was allow you to watch tv stations and didn't even have much for I/O. Granted it was nice having a color mac briefly, but really just a huge paperweight. I had to give it away in a donation pile to get rid of it. No one wanted it. Now I see one for 1300 on ebay. lol
mind blowing
Pop a digital converter box onto that Mac, let her get some TV signals again :)
Are in Chicago or Chicago area if you are where?
At 6:08 that's a parallel port
