I don't believe you can daisy chain floppy drives on the Mac. Like the eject button, the daisy chain port was included for the Apple II line. At one point Apple wanted a universal …

Yeah... I guess I didn't quite think about it like that. I was just surprised to see a Mac motherboard in such a device. The agreement between Apple and Acuson - according to the a…
I had never heard of Apple entering into agreements with companies to basically sell rebranded Apple hardware.

this company bought a Q650 for a few thousand, installed some specialty software on it then turned around and charged $600,000 for it.

Yeah, the contents of the HD should be pretty interesting. I don't know why I've never taken the time to tear into the machine. It has a few cards in it... I'll have to take a clos…
Companies have been taking computer motherboards and adapting them to specific uses for a long time. I saw a Tandy Color Computer in a blue case with an Agway label on it once. App…
The really interesting bits are going to be the video hardware - and whatever software is still extant on the internal HD.

Clarification would be nice...
Could someone please tell me if there are ANY documented accelerators which work in L2 cache slots which are supposed to be "enabled" after the machi…

and I've even had someone from Sonnet tech support refuse to replace an accelerator under warranty because he said this is the way it worked even tho…
aye, in my pc the power supply has a slow moving 130mm fan, it moves about the same amount of air as 2 60mm fans in the previous power supply, but you cant even here it over the ha…
Tempest and I have worked a deal for me to repair his IIfx logic board. I will chronicle the repair here when I receive it in the mail.

Being large you could probably undervolt it to run quiet.

I've had one of these (ACUSON AEGIS QV100) floating around my collection for years. Technically, I guess it's not a "clone" since it has an actual Mac motherboard. It's never worke…
The real problem, IMHO, is working out where to put the fan. The existing cooling holes around the handle would be the logical place - if it wasn't for the handle in the way.

There are rumours that the Sonnet 7200/4400 G3 upgrade - that actually goes into a PCI slot - has been made to work in other machines. IIRC, someone on the 6400zone forums got it …
I don't know if an emulator might work. Hal said he thought it wouldn't wouldn't. A few years back I did try two of the more popular emulators with no success. And I have been told…
I saw in an older thread that you worked with Gamba on the IIfx also.

All I recall is discussing the IIfx ROM with him. It's possible I've forgotten, but as…
I'm not sure which "look" I prefer. I mostly used Apple with monochrome monitors, so I recall the spacing. However, when using Apple2Forever, the large gaps detract some from the…

Also in those machines, you can't run any of the good versions of OS X because of the CPU soldered to the motherboard. OS X can't see any CPU installed beyond the one onboard on th…
The "visible scan lines" on most emulators are overblown, and in general I keep effects like that turned *off*.
First off old monitors, especially color monitors, tended to have b…
