Description
Love the vintage charm of the original Macintosh but not ready to go back to 128KB of RAM and floppy disks? Here’s your solution: a genuine Apple Macintosh, restored and retrofitted to hold an iPad mini 6 or 7—giving you the best of both worlds. It’s a touchscreen Macintosh!
WHAT YOU’RE GETTING:
A Macintosh lovingly restored and hand-modified by me. Here’s what I do:
– Completely gut and clean the an actual vintage Apple Macintosh computer
– Carefully remove any yellowing and restore the plastic to its original tone
– Include a custom laser-cut black bezel (only 1/8” thick) that securely holds your iPad mini without interfering with swipe gestures or screen use The result is a clean, seamless display that turns this classic into a modern statement piece.
PLEASE NOTE:
– iPad mini is NOT included. This listing is for the Macintosh housing with the bezel mount only.
– This bezel only fits the iPad mini 6th or 7th generation (with no front button). It will not fit older models with a home button. You can easily install your iPad mini using a long Torx T25 screwdriver. Here’s an instructional video walkthrough: https://youtu.be/r2vQ8MapHaM
If you’d like me to purchase and install a new iPad mini for you, just send me a message and I’ll create a custom order.
EXTRA FEATURES:
– Charging: There’s space inside to keep your iPad plugged in, with an opening in the back to route your charging cable through one of the original port holes.
– Wake/Sleep Function: Since the iPad mini 6/7 doesn’t have a home button, simply use “Tap to Wake”. The iPad will automatically lock itself after your set timeout period.
ABOUT THE MAC:
This is a real, vintage Apple Macintosh—not a replica. I take great care in selecting and restoring each one, but please expect minor imperfections or variation due to age
