Thanks for the links. I have no idea if I'll be able to pull it off or not. Looking around, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of success stories. With more searching, I found t…

What about the MMU in the //e? Click to expand... You might want to take a look at a couple of projects that have come before. But first, you probably want to abandon all hope…

What about the MMU in the //e? Click to expand... How much memory does the MMU page in and out at a time? Both granularity, and within the memory map of the 6502?

Who would have guessed? I found this on Apple's site. It's ancient: Super Serial Card: Using with Machine Language

Also the 6502 has no virtual memory management, so fork() becomes meaningless. Click to expand... What about the MMU in the //e?

Urg, 6502 is one of the worst processors for C let alone UNIX. The size of the stack (256 bytes) is crippling. So you have to do the stack yourself. Also the 6502 has no virtual me…

Ok, now I'm just really pushing things here, aren't I? Aside from my project to write a network game for the Apple II, I also want to look into Unix or any other multi-tasking i…

Hi, I will leave you a PM just a bit easier that way. Since I do not always log in here. Take Care

Thanks for the JSR. I was looking through more manuals, trying to figure out exactly what a PR#2 did. The page with the Pascal 1.1 entry points was right across from the page with …

If you want to avoid the work of programming the SCC (Serial Communications Controller) in your IIgs directly, you want to use the Pascal entry points in the firmware. The SCC is …

Hi, I'm using the built-in SSC emulation in my GS and have it connected by serial port to a Classic running ClarisWork's communications module. Everything is perfectly fine: I can…

Thou sayest sooth. I misappreciated Byrd's difficulty. The sideslot accepts the bent ribbon-cable by forcefit, and it is only logical to expect that it can be removed with force.…

Actually, the 1400's HDD ribbon uses a 44 pin notebook IDE connector on the logic board side that works in exactly the same way as the 44 pin connector that plugs into the HDD. Oth…

The ribbon cables in PB1400s and earlier PBs (at least), and the ribbon cables of PB displays, trackballs/trackpads and so on all operate in the same way. The tinned terminals on t…

Yes, but especially the 1400's HDD cable, as it folds up into the case, and with it being a 12 - 13 year old ribbon cable, they're starting to go a little brittle, and if you flex …

Just a little advice - be CAREFUL with that HDD ribbon! Click to expand... Basically, any ribbon cable.

Just a little advice - be CAREFUL with that HDD ribbon! I accidently tore one once a couple of years ago when I was switching HDDs in my 1400 - thank God I had a parts machine to g…

Well, that would have happened by some good old fashioned yanking it out Then I realised I probably wasn't meant to do it that way; thankfully the HD ribbon is super-tuff and u…

How did you get the original HD out?

Hi, I picked up an "as is" Powerbook 1400cs/166 from eBay for ~ $25 BIN, untested. It arrived tonight with the specs of stock 16MB RAM/1.3GB HD, floppy drive, and Newertech ether…

Any one out there need a copy of this driver? Click to expand... Apparently, I do. :-/ Can you email it? If so, I'll PM you my email address... Peace, Drew

So the XLR8 driver worked for the Vimage G3?

I completely forgot how easy it was to network 2 macs using the printer ports. I pulled the driver I needed off of the floppy I had from a 190cs. The 1400 runs so much faster wit…

Did you try the link to the Vimage driver Click to expand... I get: Error Message: The specified database was not found Error Code: -609
