Radius Rocket? Or perhaps some kind of video input card, such as a SuperMac VideoSpigot?

I was actually considering buying the Daystar '040 that somebody was selling here for $20 for a while.

Before you worry overmuch about the third NuBus slot, why not fill the RAM slots with 16MB 80ns cards, and the cache slot with a DayStar 50MHz PowerCache card at minimum, or an 040…

Wow, that's really cool. I'd imagine it would be really hard to find though.

An 386 co-processeor in NuBUS form? http://www.vintagemacworld.com/O386.html

=What is a card that has some cool features, isn't ridiculously expensive, etc? I already have a video/ethernet card.

Hi, I purchased a NewerTech PowerPump clock chipping/overclocking device for my Quadra 700 on eBay (dlchief I think it was). This device purports to overclock the onboard 25Mhz '…

I'd go for the 6100 myself. It's got the cool case, and supports more RAM. I'd replace the heatsink with a larger one and of course new paste. Then a low speed G3 (which would sm…

Sorry for having letting you guys down a couple of days… I won't rework on my Macminitosh for now. Whenever I find some time to play with my collection as of late, my main goal is…

Someday I will also build the fastest OS 9.x native booting machine (most likely a single processor system). I have yet to bother since high end G4's still cost a few dollars and I…

There are a small handful of programs for OS 8.6 > 9.2.2 that make use of the second processor. Back in those days, apps had to make specific use of the second processor. If…

Alright, thanks!

Whatever board you're putting into the 5500, you'll need the 5500 cover.

BTW, can I use my old 5500 plastic cover, or do I need to track down a 6xxx series plastic cover?

None of the Prozessor Upgrades is listed(!) to work with a G4 with 167MHz System Bus speed. Not Powerlogix, not Sonnettech, not FastMac, Not Newertech, Not OWC, not GigaDesigns wil…

I was going to post my HD sounds but my digital recorder only records in .msv format which is not compatible with macs. Anyway, I would like to know if it is possible to get my PB…

The reason I asked that is because when I would boot from my HD with a full install I could sometimes recognize and charge the battery. When on a floppy running the 3 battery reco…

I am not sure. Some of the battery software is certainly loaded from the full system (e.g., there is a Control Strip module), and so you are not going to get all the bells and whis…

Is it possible to charge and use the battery without a regular install? Like if a boot from a floppy?

Knowing (cr)Apple they're probably still bound to an NDA and can't say anything. I know these machines are 22 years old, but still....Apple is Apple, and we all know what they're l…

However, Larry Pina's Macintosh Classic and SE Repair and Upgrade Secrets specifically refers to the "heat sink screw" at the front of the PSU and makes specific mention of heat si…

why you want an os 9 only machine is beyond me Click to expand... Simply because I don´t like OS X, and will never use it. And because I think that OS 9 is one of the most logi…

YES! *does a backflip* Thanks so much! Are you sure it'll be compatible with the extra PCI slot and all? Click to expand... Well no...You'd have to swap the PCI risers. The 55…
