The same cable used on the Mac II to 13 inch color, LC to 12 inch color or b/w is the same cable for the IIgs. Make sure its the thick cable with all 15 pins on the heads. The thin…

Hello guys, I found a very nice IIgs with monitor and drives. I works great, but I can't connect it to the RGB screen as I don't have the proper cable. Does anyone have a spare t…

Thank you. I'll check it out. I mostly use it on android but I have it on OS X. I'LL PM you. I have some broader NewtonOS questions.

Einstein development has picked up on GitHub at https://github.com/pguyot/Einstein. Paul Guyot returned to make some fixes and migrate it from Google Code to GitHub, Steven Frank h…

Has there been any progress on Internet capability from the underlying system or system's drivers?

Super! Thanks very much for the power information. I will try to get an ATX power unit.

Sounds like you've got this all figured out then. With such a brilliantly deductive and fertile mind as yours it's a wonder you bother asking questions of us ignoramuses at all.

I had already bought it by the time you posted.  Worst case scenario, I wind up with a bigmessowires... (a cha cha cha cha) Honestly Gorgonops, I don't know that much about the st…

Save your $10, it's not going to work. It's not even going to fail in an interesting way. It might be good for a laugh if it could at least partly boot up or something, but it won'…

You can flash other ROMs (in fact, that's not really needed - you can start Linux from an .exe in CE) - but the fact absolutely nothing will work (memory mappings, chips, etc) make…

I guess what I really meant was flashing the ROM to something other than a factory default.  Maybe one can do that.  [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410156] SA-1…

Windows CE isn't multiuser. You always have "root," because there is no concept of it. As for just jumping a ROM: Yeah, no. There's hardware initiliazation, hardware differences, …

So the SA-110, which is ARMv4, seems to have its most 'modern' successor in the SA-1110.  So I think I'm going to get an iPAQ. That presupposes one can actually root it.

Where would I get a $10 phone? I haven't asserted any facts. (That second sentence is a non sequitur in relation to the first.)

Non sequitur. Your facts are uncoordinated.

Perhaps not, but they may be more informative.

Then by all means just take whatever random Android phone you can bum off of eBay for $10 and try dragging-and-dropping a MessagePad ROM image to it. They're all going to work equa…

Honestly, I'm curious to see what happens, even if it costs me an arm.  Not if it costs me an arm and a leg, though.

I think a better question is what do *you* think would happen if one were to stick a Commodore 64 ROM into an Apple II. The answer is essentially the same as what you could reasona…

What would happen if you physically adapted a Commodore ROM for an Apple II board? It seems the digitizer would be a second-order problem. But no, I didn't think it's work out o…

The short answer on CPU compatibility proper is that the Newton devices used the ARMv3 family CPUs (you'll find some ignorant references claiming that the Newton was "ARM 6", but "…

Right.  This is why I don't want to risk any expensive or interesting tech.  So two things.  1) Have you ever seen WiFi working in Einstein?  I saw a reference to it being possible…
