Radius Rocks! I've been using their products since '87 and the one I love most is my 81/110 with the Radius VideoVision Studio Setup.
I liked its design so much that I snagged a N…

The Radius is the greater rarity. WGServers are no different than ordinary Macs of the day, though both (?) machines likely have an extra large L2 cache. If it's 1MB, the chip alo…

I put the new 128MB module into my LC 575 and it registered fine, so I'll post the link if anyone else is interested. It's a darn good price, but there are only three left: http:/…
I have both of these, but only enough parts to max out one of them. The positives I see:
Radius has internal fast SCSI and integrated video.
WGS 8150 has a tape drive, is a bit …
(I waited to post this until after I got back from vacation and could do some troubleshooting.)
Just before leaving for CA, I received the G4, installed it in the B&W, and…
Any ideas on the spontaneous bootup and the lack of "influence" via the ADB? Could the power supply also have issues? I do have a spare but it is about the exact age as the other…
Oh, the WGS is the 'hub' of my new testbench. I have an AAUI-to-10BaseT adapter that has a built-in 3 port hub connected (so I don't need a dedicated hub on the testbench,) and ha…

So I just dug my Workgroup Server 7350 out of storage, and wanted to turn it into an actual production server again.
Turns out the hard drive toasted itself. So I swapped in a ne…

Haven't noticed anything like that with my two 7300s. They see regular use, however (one is always running and the other is used a lot), so I don't know if that has anything to do …

Hello, everyone!
Just a friendly note to send to all of you whom own a Macintosh with PCI expansion bus. Just this past week, I've found that all the bus slots on my Power Mac 75…

I'd say your assessment is correct, but that the cleaning (which had to happen) not only helped establish that, but also helped establish that the machine may otherwise be just fin…

My motherboard looks absolutely beautiful and after waiting some extra days as advised I decided to go for it.
I reassembled the IIci and it immediately booted up (spontaneously)…

I've tried three floppy drives. 2 are from LCs, 1 from a IIci. They all do the same thing even with different cables.
I do have my broken motherboard. Is there a way I can iden…

It helps keep things organized if you dedicate machines to specific software/tasks.
There are a few machines in my collection I got for free and was about to toss because they loo…

I finally got around during the past couple of days of idleness over the holidays to reassembling the IIfx (in Mac II case) mentioned in the above posts.
Some observations:
Dirt…

Very nice. Boxed stuff is so rare.
I actually have boxes with no corresponding (serial # matched) machines... I have one for a 7600, one for a PowerBook G3, a G3 Tower, and an App…

Have you tried a different cable? Also, have you tried both the cable and drives on a different Mac?
If you have, I'd say there's an issue with the SWIM chip.
So I finally got a motherboard replacement for my broken LC, but it has a weird problem. When I connect a floppy drive, it'll constantly try to access the drive. It'll then pop u…

I've never seen that external HDD, that looks cool.

It's a floppy drive. The front piece kinda folds down and props the front end of the drive up a bit. Hard…
