Apple//e — #4

The RAM card is probably of the Slinky-type, meaning that it feeds out bytes one a time, in sequential order, just like a tape drive. It is probably less desirable than a RamWorks-…

I have a bit of alphaSyntauri software posted on my site... it's been a couple of years since I've played about with mine, but it really is a fun rig to noodle with.

Assembling the Fastest OS 9 Machine — #38

I don't know if it is "properly" supported, but it works for me. All resolutions and color depths are available, and 2D seems pretty fast. I don't run 3D games, so I can't say whet…

Assembling the Fastest OS 9 Machine — #37

Do the ATI OS 9 drivers properly support the 9700? I thought the 9200 (RV250) was the last card officially supported by ATI for OS 9, but I would be delighted to be wrong. Click…

IIci - Bringing back my 1st Mac — #25

I am seeing more and more barebones LCDs on eBay that include the D/A board (the expensive part.) Many are 640x480. You'd have to build your own enclosure for it. They're also a…

Need some help with a Kanga — #16

16 Meg 30-pin SIMMs are still listed at OWC (Item # OWC30PS16MB) for $9.97. If you need 'em, grab 'em while they're available and max out that SE30 or Q950.
