New Retro Computing Magazine!! — #12

How big is your print run? Are you taking advertising? Any interest in retail sales? I know a zine shop local to me that would probably stock an issue or two.

New Retro Computing Magazine!! — #9

I can say with some degree of certainty that we won't be doing paper reprints – it's just too labour intensive to print off one or two copies at a time. Number 2 is coming along n…

New Retro Computing Magazine!! — #8

Sounds good to me, couldn't get the first due to being too busy to notice it had gone out of print. Might miss the second due to monetary shortage by way of outlay to buy an Apple …

PDF for the back issues would be cool. Of course I would love a paper version of issue 2 so when it's ready I will cue up for a copy.

Oh, man! A truly virgin 1400. — #16

They are amazingly durable, and you've got to love the keyboard. I am using mine less now that I have the Pismos, but I still love to type on them. I always admired the Duos, neve…

Oh, man! A truly virgin 1400. — #15

My 1400 love also comes from nostalgia. It was my first laptop, a hand-me-down from my brother-in-law who said if I could fix it, I could have it. A new LCD and inverter later, it …

Oh, man! A truly virgin 1400. — #14

Personally, I love the 1400 series mostly because the 1400 was my first ever PowerBook, which I've had since new. While yes, they are very upgradable for a PowerBook, I have to adm…

Oh, man! A truly virgin 1400. — #13

Why would you be banned for talking positively about a 68k over a PPC, on a 68k-related board? I fully agree. The 1400-series is interesting, sure... But the 68k's are where the…

I know I'm going to get banned for this, but: I couldn't care less about the 1400s. Yes they were great machines, expandable, and all that. However I just don't like them for some…

Has a PowerPC upgrade been installed? — #8

My 540C actually had its little "PowerBook 540C" badge replaced with "PowerPC" so I'm thinking it used to have an official Apple PPC upgrade. Unfortunately, it's just 68k still

Beige G3. Does it belong in this list? — #4

I'm going to go ahead and say yes, it does belong here, even though the Beige G3 is an Old World-based machine, it still originally shipped with a G3 processor, and thus it goes he…

Beige G3. Does it belong in this list? — #3

Are you referring to the "oldworld rom" or openfirmware, whatever its called? Even though there is no AGP in these, I'd still put it in the G3 category because it is A) a G3 and …

168 MB in an 8100/80, what to do? — #10

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.

168 MB in an 8100/80, what to do? — #9

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…

168 MB in an 8100/80, what to do? — #7

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…

Icons for old machines in Specs pages — #13

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 …
