Okay, that's not much of a surprise. It should be somewhat less difficult than modern games because you're screen is very low resolution and has limited color. So that's a lot less…

It's taking a pause. Keeping real-time games in sync on modern hardware with full networking protocols is hard enough. The whole game needs to be rewritten in assembly language an…

I see this is about a year old, anything new on this front? Sounds like you need software flow control written into it.

Speaking of IPNetRouter, according to this page http://www.sustworks.com/site/news_promo.html, you can use the original version for free. Of course you'd need a 68k Mac/Powermac as…

Hello Carlo, I have the Hyperdrive software V3R1 as disk-images. Here a list with the files: Disk 1: Finder Manager V3R1 Scrapbook File System Disk 2: Spooler Install V3R1 …

I actually just ordered a CF-IDE adapter. Apparently these work very well in the 2300c. CF to SCSI would be a bit of a trick. Maybe I should look into that one for 280c owners.

Here's another idea: build a card that replaces the HDD with a CF or SD card, wifi and bluetooth... and then send me two of them for testing purposes ;-) There are cards like th…

If you ever get that working, I'd happily pay far-too-much for one, if my budget even remotely permits. (Sadly, right now, my budget for such things is ZERO.)

Ding ding. We have a winner. I have some friends who DO have the hardware hacking skills. Basically, I want to build an ethernet adapter into a floppy adapter's chassis, and use s…

I imagine he means something that I have long wondered about hacking: Use the floppy adapter *SOLELY* for the PDS dock connector and shell, and rig up an Ethernet chip (a la the o…

Whu? How do you imagine you are going to get WiFi from a floppy adapter?

Wow, I sure do wish Chiefs-Trading-Post shipped internationally. =( I could use a NewerTechnology Floppy adapter or two to cannibalize for evil. And by evil, I mean WiFi.

I used a 300 Mhz Power Mac G3 to calculate Pi to 1 million digits, and IIRC, that took less than 3 hours. I should get that program and put it on the 8100.

I wonder if calculating pi to some long number of digits would use up a lot of RAM... Click to expand... Not unless you want it to. Just for the **** of it, when I first got my…

The symptoms started after I added the RAM, which was about 2 weeks ago.

I think that some of the RAM might be bad, because the 8100 is now unstable. Click to expand... An X100 machine that old, there's a good chance that the heat sink grease is wor…

I did a handful recently, and uploaded them to the wiki. They look very nice at larger sizes. At 32px, I think I prefer the isometric view of the Icon Factory icons. YMMV. I'm …

Hehe I was waiting for someone to see the CD-ROM and go "wtf" Indeed it is by my own hand. On a poor resolution iPhone camera it looks like a decent job, however up close you can …

I have to agree with the consensus that the CD-ROM equipped IIsi is a hack. But one well-executed hack, at least from the outside. When I get my IIsi out of storage, I may have t…

That is weird. None of the Mac fan sites that I can find makes any mention of a IIsi coming with an internal CD ROM or of any upgrades from Apple or third parties to allow that. Yo…

Yep, that machine most certainly does have an internal CD-ROM...likewise I'd be really interested to see a pic of the guts of the machine.

Is it just me or does that IIsi have an internal CD-ROM? If so, how exactly did you go about putting that in?

I think that some of the RAM might be bad, because the 8100 is now unstable. I'm getting random Finder quits, hangs, and even a System bomb on startup (you know, the fun kind, wher…

I wouldn't mind doing that, but no this came from some dumpster diving.

"floor plans for some hospitals in Washington" Are you one of those people who goes adventuring in abandoned hospitals in the middle of the night? :lol:
