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 …

That's still a steal.

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 …

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…

They should use the same power supply. The II to IIfx upgrade was a motherboard replacement.

whatever the answer is don't toss the original, its issue could just be a leaky cap or burned out regulator, which can be pretty easily repaired by someone trained and safe while w…

I have an lcd, approximately 8 inch VGA monitor (originally a car tv, but it does work as a monitor) it was given to me by one of my friend's dad, and it displays an 800x600 resolu…

Ok it looks like the yellow is outputting about 4V. So I guess the PS is bad. Can I use one from a Mac II or does it have to be a IIfx power supply? Tempest

to continue on the last point there, yes IF you are interested in doing a hack of this nature mobile LCD's are probally the best bet, I used to work at a car audio WD and 7-10 inch…

The upshot is that the only practical way to do this is to find a complete, small LCD monitor with a VGA interface (bonne chance, mon ami). Click to expand... I have an lcd, ap…

I've looked into this on the SE/30. In that case one would want a display approximately 7.25" X 5.25" or something a little larger and then to use less than the full display area…
