It wasn't necessarily a matter of functionality, since I already have a 512k, 512ke, and 3 Pluses. It was more for getting something I didn't already have. This 512k does have a SC…

OS 7.6.1 can only boot from 2GB partitions, but can use anything you have left for non bootable partitions. OS 8.1 can boot from larger then 2GB partitions. The early PPC macs had…

AAACK!!! part 2. I ended up having to go with OS 8.1 as it appears OS 7.6.1 only recognizes 2 gig or smaller. I also decided to pull the SCSI card as there seems to be conflict i…

That's still a steal. Click to expand... Definitely... the carrying case alone, would have been worth driving 2 miles out of my way. It's not the typical Apple carrying case...…

I added a basic 68k programming guide to the wiki. Right now it just covers installing MPW and compiling a basic program, but the next tutorial will go more in-depth and cover aspe…

No biggie; I'd rather have a 512k, anyway. They're more useful; more software will run on it.

Great epic find.

If you look in the SuperDuo thread in Hacks, I link to an ebay store with bare LCD panels of various sizes and costs, and he says he'll throw in a VGA converter board for $30 with …

hell even early G3s have trouble decoding DVDs. Click to expand... Add a Wired4DVD card and even a PPC601 or PPC604 can play DVDs well. It's a PCI card though, so no help for…

Yeah, the guy running Daystar Technology (Brian, I think?) is a swell guy. He's kept some excellent hardware on the market and brought some new stuff out that I never expected to …

Quadraman's already conquered (conquested?) a SCSI DVD-RAM. He's asking how to use it with a Quadra. Now I may be entirely wrong about this, but my impression was that if you for…

Well, I just picked it up this morning... took it into work... opened the nice carrying case... and the back says 512k. Sigh. I'll have to open it up and take a peek at the guts, b…

You can use an IDE DVD ROM and a IDE to SCSI converter.

scsi dvd roms are out there and fairly plentiful, just expensive!

Well if I'm correct, the Daystar Technology of today is a very different company to the Daystar Digital of the 80's and 90's. I'd be surprised if anyone currently at Daystar Techno…

Running OS 8.1, with the Apple CD/DVD Driver, a DVD-ROM drive certainly can be used for data storage. Obviously, on a machine so old, you can forget about watching DVD-Video discs,…

it is defiantly VGA, it works fine with all the computers i have attached it to, mac and pc. Click to expand... That's terrific -- you are very lucky!

Interesting that the Shading numbers vary that much from run to run. I'll run it a few more times when I get a spare moment.

Why not go to the Daystar website and ask them your question directly?

Only the SE and SE/30 cases have flat front bezels. All the rest are curved left to right.

And to answer another question, the inner surface of a compact mac's crt bezel is not all in one plane, unfortunately, so mechanical hacking is needed, too. Click to expand... …

I'm surprised that it is a VGA monitor (and by "VGA" I don't mean simply its resolution, I mean the VGA interface as well). The car-TV monitors I've run into have composite or S-vi…
