Hi all,
I was cleaning my basement (still am and will be for sometime) and found my beloved NeXTstation Color N1200. It booted up no problems the first time. After some 10/ 15 years and in great shape.
Have forgotten the passwd but will most probably get rid of it.
Happy to have found this community, most probably will not be that active due to work and life.
Did Network/ System administration back in 1997 taking care of NetWare 3.12, 3.2 and later 5.0, 5.1.
MRP/ ERP programming (it was called MAGIC back then with few name changes) as well as other responsibilities as I was the "one-man IT department".
From 2001 I started my own Network Solutions business which turned in to on-site services and finally mainly household issues to my dislike.
Point is, basement is full of parts :)
Currently working as a Cable Tech installing and servicing TV, Phone and Internet.
I'll share the NeXTstation Color hardware spec and some pics:
NeXTstation Color
Model No: N1200
Part No: 3005
MegaPixel 17-inch Color Display
Model No: N4001
Sound Box
Model No: N4004
Part No: 1974
Keyboard
model N4000A
Part 2122
Mouse
model N4000A
Part 193
Found couple working iMac G4s and Performa 5200 also.
Don't believe there are any more working systems but incomplete systems and not much Apple at that but some.
Most probably be asking for some help and advice later.
