The Macintosh Plus is back! Sort of, thanks to an enthusiast who has brought one back from the dead with modern internals.
Posting on Mastodon, user DosFox explained how, over the course of a year, he sourced a clean motherboard, which houses all of the parts found in PCs and Macs, compatible with an old-school Mac Plus build. After some time, he found all of the necessary components for a Mac Plus, except a floppy disk drive. On July 23, DosFox successfully booted up the Mac Plus, sharing a short follow-up to say that the revived computer works with a keyboard. This is an impressive feat, considering Apple stopped production of the Mac Plus way back in October 1990.
