Its LCD IPS 10.1' 1024×600px HDMI Waveshare 11870 screen is turned 180°, so that the wiring does not interfere with the upper Macintosh frame. 'I bought my Macintosh Classic II case on eBay - it was completely yellow, but I restored it to the factory condition by means of 18 per cent hydrogen peroxide and appropriate light exposure. 'My version of MacintoshPi is driven by Raspberry Pi 3B+,' Jaromaz explains of his physical Mac recreation. Recommended to install rasbian lite as distro choice, otherwise the whole without a desktop (X11) is kinda of useless :) install. Youll likely be familiar with watching Microsoft Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android or maybe even Linux start up as you power the device (or boot it) for the first. Jaromaz didn't create the emulator alone: The MacintoshPi project builds atop the existing Basilisk II and SheepShaver emulator, for Mac OS 7-8 and Mac OS 9 respectively, and if Mac OS compatibility isn't enough Jaromaz has squeezed an emulator for Commodore 64, Commodore 128, and Commodore PET emulation into the bundle for good measure. The second reason is performance: By reducing background tasks to a bare minimum, the emulator can run on almost - but not quite - any Raspberry Pi from the Raspberry Pi 2 upwards. The first is aesthetics: The system boots rapidly and shows the Mac OS environment full-screen, making it convincing if installed inside original hardware to replace a faulty motherboard. There are a couple of very good reasons why Jaromaz sought to build MacintoshPi without relying on a graphical environment. This handy tool turns a Raspberry Pi into a classic Apple Mac, or a Commodore PET/C64/C128.
