Can the propeller work from a 62.6688Mhz clock? If so it's sampling can synchronised with the mac's pixel clock at four times. Alternatively, can it not use a 78.336Mhz clock? So …

I can. The issue is the strange frequency. Most microcontrollers and processors are made today to use a evenly divisible clock frequency. I want to use the Propeller because it hav…

I still don't understand why you simply can't source the clock off the Mac motherboard. If you don't want to solder to it use an alligator clip. I'm sure there's somewhere you can …

yeah its gonna its gonna be a gold mine.

Can't say I ever seen a complete computer out on trash day (there are people with trucks who roam around looking for things to fix/resell around here), but they do tend to end up o…

The RTClock / calendar / PRAM chip has its own 32KHz crystal. Everything else runs off the "16MHz" clock. If you don't care about serial baud rates, floppy read / write, or video s…

Yeah, I know! I am excited, with the release of Snow Leopard we'll be seeing all kind of curb things. Some day PowerMac G5s! But this machine is the cutoff for newworld machines …

Nice to see kerb scores entering the New World ROM age, and right on schedule

The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated. ~ A year later it started up again so I just lubricated it myself. Anyway... lubricate the eMac fan, …

I wish we had curbs :'(

Uncommon but not really valuable as they can't do anything but what they were intended.

Cool are those valuable?

Its a DVD decoder daughter board.

OK It powers on. No RAM on me so I can't test it.

It is an Apple branded card with a 1998 date.

if it is on the ATI card it is probably for DVD playback unless the ATI card is an AIW with capture.

It has no other inputs though, it just is piggybacked onto the ATI 16MB Card. So now I am home and am going to power it up. I'll take a pic of the card for you.

The classic/II seem to be difficult to find info on. When I was killing mine I could not find too much info. Click to expand... Contrary to Mars478 post, Larry Pina's Mac Class…

C-Cube made video compression chips, might be a video capture card (have any pics?).

So is that fast? If the Macally keyboard is still there when I am going back I will snag it. And I will strip the iMac as well of the Ram and (Hopefully!) Airport card. If I had a…

[EDIT] OK here are the specs from the back of the machine, 400MHZ, 256MB (None there but I have some RAM), Modem, 9GB U2SC (?), Keyboard, DVD, ATI Rage 16MB. Click to expand... …

Seems like a RevB to me, I'll be able to stuff it with HDs and use it as a file server for my InsanelyWind projects. I can make a 68Kmla account on the FTP part of it if people wa…
