Hello Phreakout,
Thanks for the good advice. I've been wondering about 32-bit access too. Specially because MicroMac is very emphatic on having 32-bit access turned on. Could it b…
If you are using a SCSI -> IDE board then you can use an IDE -> CF board with an LED on it. Would have to remove the current LED and stick some wires on there but it …

Thanks bbraun, these results are encouraging. I am in the process of procuring hardware for the conversion. I am a little put-off about getting one of the IDE-SCSI adapters that …

It's here!

Thats cool. I just picked up a 300MHz blueberry and 366MHz graphite yesterday. Both work great, and actually have working batteries (unlike the indigo I've had for the past 7 yea…
I disagree with your interpretation... I'd really rather not dust off my old statistics book... I personally use the lowest rated Kingston CF card and am very happy with it. I'm n…
