I'm more inclined to say the PSU is the problem, probably because my II+ was exhibiting similar problems and swapping in a modified AT PSU solved most of the problems. The quickes…

Easy causes could be loose chips (give a solid push with your thumb on any socketed ones) or a marginal power supply (try with no cards (especially the disk drive card) installed).…

Yes, it did cross my mind when you joined up. The other macdan is a bit of a Powerbook guru. In fact, he might have just given me the clue I need to make the UJ-841 drive bootabl…

Well I bought a Monitor II, Apple IIe, Disk II, Parallel Pro Card, 80 column card, etc. It was complete in all the boxes, with manuals and disks, and extra parts with only little u…

How does it manage the stack? The basic 6502's 256 bytes in page 1 isn't much. Presumably it manages an additional psuedo 16 bit stack ptr. I managed to compile my favourite text e…

The wheel turns ever slow, and yet it doth turn... I'm typing this on the Lombard right now. It's got OS X 10.2.8, 512MB of RAM, the original 333 CPU and logic, a new 80GB 5400rp…

Blame Apple. Top secret fees, overpriced docs. Apple wanted 895 dollars for the programming manuals for newton. DOCUMENTATION! Microsoft that same time frame gave away cdroms ful…

Please consider that some authors do not want their software to be freely developed after they have abandoned it. It is all fine and dandy to label them as greedy because of that,…

I just love my iBook SE (366 Clamshell). however, the battery seems to be completly dead. The iBook was running OS X, so i installed Mac OS 9 to run the Battery Reset application…

Great! Love to hear your impressions on speed, battery life, etc

Driverguru, the "Nike" you're describing was a shipping product from not that long ago. It was an add-on to the iPod, not a custom MacOS portable device. And "Nike" wasn't a code…
