I have a PM 9500 Motherboard that I am pretty sure works, but if you want it, it's Free+shipping to you from Omaha, NE 68132 USA Let me know

Great. I always use an imation USB superdrive for this task. Of course Rollie44 will connect the USB floppy drive to the iMac :lol:

Amiga hardware at that point was played out, we are better off with modular components instead of a few chips that run everything that cannot be changed without something breaking…

That mac emulator must be pretty interesting. Its a shame the Amiga flopped so quickly, and its assets are left rotting. If only Apple bought what was left of old Commodore.

I have a year-old iMac. The SE30 has "LocalTalk". Click to expand... I'm really confused. If you have a year old iMac, why not just use the USB disk drive to make an HFS format…

That's always fun stuff to find. For some reason It feels good to have something that aged out years ago.

To produce a Mac usable floppy disk on a PC follow the instructions given in our 68kMLA Wiki -> HFVExplorer. Click to expand... The online manual includes advice how to …

I don't have "PC Exchange". If the SE30 can't read a PC FAT formatted disk with the Iomega driver I'm still in a pinch. Making a HFS disk on a PC doesn't help either if I can't cop…

Maintenance? HDD: file defragmentation/file-directory repair/archiving files (to maintain less than 85% fullth [a technical term]). Break-and-make of all connector-socket junctio…

Hi guys, Today I managed to win an auction for a Commodore Amiga 2000 from a local seller. The seller was great (and may be a source of more vintage gear in the future!), but not…

Nice score. Yeah, Verbatim is now owned by Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corporation (according to wiki) and have actually been owned by Mitsu since 1990.

Nice! 800k floppies are always nice to have. My only source of them are wiping old ones I have laying around here. BTW, did you get my PM regarding payment for shipping?

I stopped in a Goodwill computer store today to check out what they had. The prices were good on some items, OK on others. However, one display that I was drawn to was NOS floppy d…

Nice, I did not know they made also a combo drive. But as far as I remember I used several sorts of drivers with my PB180 and a SCSI ZIP 100 (probably with help of SCSI probe or HD…

two NeXTstations Click to expand... 8-o Doooooo iiiiiiiitttt!!!

You might also try to connect the iomega disk drive with inserted HFS formatted disk to your Mac, drive ready while booting. Probably this will cause an appropriate drive to load …

Ram yes, changing it out did not work, one of the first things I did. Was using 4x 128mb dimms, interleaved. Battery is full 3.6v. El Nino? lol

P.S.: make sure you have got a SCSI version of the zip drive; the Parallel Port version for PCs might sport a connector of the same physical dimensions, but experiments to connect …

Very cool, blade 1000s are seemingly really spiffy UNIX workstations.

Wow, nice conquests!

A guy selling UNIX gear at a computer show I went to in March told me about a recycler in the area, and I finally made it over there last week. There were a number of interesting t…

I bought a USB diskette unit and copied the Omega driver onto a PC format diskette usning a modern computer. I will see (next week) if the SE30 can read it and install it from that…

And if this wasn't about PowerPCs, I'd mention the holy grail of clones - the Radius SkyLab :O

Id go for a PowerWave Stargate with Nubus/PCI. } just because nubus is teh win
