PCI. It's the last desktop machine released before the G3s.

I don't believe you can daisy chain floppy drives on the Mac. Like the eject button, the daisy chain port was included for the Apple II line. At one point Apple wanted a universal …

Lessay you are daisychaining floppy drives to the floppy port on your IIci. What is the maximum amount of drives you could possible daisychain?

I really want one of these. The best place to look is probably ebay Germany and hope the seller understands English and is willing to ship it to you. Most of the less well known cl…

Is this machine Nubus or PCI?

Yeah... I guess I didn't quite think about it like that. I was just surprised to see a Mac motherboard in such a device. The agreement between Apple and Acuson - according to the a…

I had never heard of Apple entering into agreements with companies to basically sell rebranded Apple hardware. Click to expand... Avid? Protools? Freestyle? Axiotronic Mod…

this company bought a Q650 for a few thousand, installed some specialty software on it then turned around and charged $600,000 for it. Click to expand... Piffle. Aegis i…

I have long advised against formatting 1.4MB disks as 800K. I read they were unreliable in just about every book on Macs and wanted to see for myself. Way back in 1995, I covered …

Yeah, the contents of the HD should be pretty interesting. I don't know why I've never taken the time to tear into the machine. It has a few cards in it... I'll have to take a clos…

Congrats! New 800k floppies are hard to come by these days. Click to expand... Yeah, and trying to format HD floppies as lower density floppies is almost always unreliable at b…

Congrats! New 800k floppies are hard to come by these days.

I had two conquests late this afternoon, both of which I feel are worth sharing! First, for something I can use with my old 68Ks. I got two brand new shrinkwrapped boxes of floppi…

Companies have been taking computer motherboards and adapting them to specific uses for a long time. I saw a Tandy Color Computer in a blue case with an Agway label on it once. App…

The really interesting bits are going to be the video hardware - and whatever software is still extant on the internal HD. mine uses a IIvi mobo / The board very clearly has…

Clarification would be nice... Could someone please tell me if there are ANY documented accelerators which work in L2 cache slots which are supposed to be "enabled" after the machi…

Clarification would be nice... and I've even had someone from Sonnet tech support refuse to replace an accelerator under warranty because he said this is the way it worked even tho…

aye, in my pc the power supply has a slow moving 130mm fan, it moves about the same amount of air as 2 60mm fans in the previous power supply, but you cant even here it over the ha…

Tempest and I have worked a deal for me to repair his IIfx logic board. I will chronicle the repair here when I receive it in the mail. "Dennis Nedry" / Ben

Being large you could probably undervolt it to run quiet. Click to expand... Unless it is super high CFM then generally the smaller ones are the loudest. You do not need that m…

I've had one of these (ACUSON AEGIS QV100) floating around my collection for years. Technically, I guess it's not a "clone" since it has an actual Mac motherboard. It's never worke…

The real problem, IMHO, is working out where to put the fan. The existing cooling holes around the handle would be the logical place - if it wasn't for the handle in the way. I j…
