It's capitalism unchecked. Why make something which lasts for a long time if it doesn't benefit the builder? Houses which need to be rebuilt or replaced, on the other hand, do bene…

It is said that few newer houses will last for 100 years like older built ones have.

Older houses seem better because the shoddy houses built 100 years ago h…

The G4 has some issues with starting properly. Sometimes it will go to the desktop, other times it will stay on the gray screen.
I'll try it again tonight.

Weirdness - on the PC using the built-in drivers for the 9600 it showed the resolution correctly. After installing the latest ATI drivers it now shows 1360x768. So far I haven't …

For those 68k diehards that see this and think that I've sacrificed the authenticity of this logic board by removing the original PROMs and installing newfangled socketed PLCC Flas…

but there was never really a call for a dual-floppy LC since most color software took up more than one 1.4MB disk, especially those that came out right after the LC was released.

UPDATE
I have acquired some PLCC-32 to DIP-32 adapters and installed them in place of the onboard ROMs of this Mac IIci.

If you just want a functional compact Mac, then you would be better to get a 512k or 512ke motherboard until you can manage to get your hands on a 128k motherboard. The 128k is a v…

This happened to me with a Duo 280c that I placed a Revision F keyboard in. The keyboard worked fine in a 2300c, but not in that 280c. So I went back to the original 280c keyboard,…

It's my understanding that the SegmentLoader only read program segments FROM the floppy disk, and didn't write them back to the disk. Is that true?

I have to say that it will be a lot of work to get that board back to original condition or at least functionally original. The missing chips will have to be found and if the RAM o…

With 128K the OS is forced to swap out program segments to the 400K floppy, and it is SLOW!

To get the board to work (as 128K) you need to plug 74LS244s into the 2 big sockets, and resistor packs into RP2 and RP3. The resistor packs need to be 10 pins each with 5 individu…
