As a spur of the moment thing I decided to dig out my two old Amigas to see what state they were in after years of being left idle. Happily both seem in working order (but I had to…
AppleFritter was the first Mac community I joined. When they switched to the new (current) forums, the place lost a lot of its life. I still check in every now and again, and som…
Yeah, taking it apart doesn't seem too bad. I'm a ACMT, so i've got access to the service manual and its been very helpful. I will ask you this, I've gotten very close to gettin…
Assuming your drive needs a good clean, this is the best way to do it:
1) Remove floppy drive from the computer.
2) Remove the cover.
3) Use a can of compressed air, making sure…
Perhaps there are several reasons for the non-response. One is that you have asked a question that no one can answer, given the minimal information you've provided. You've said the…
Who told u the IIGS used a 65802? IIRC the ppc chips have a real 68LC040@33mhz onboard. no software conversion at all.

ifixit.com has nice step by step teardown instructions for your machine.
There are 2 ways to fix this issue:
1. Remove the logic board entirely from the machine and clean it.
2.…

After installing system 7.5 my machine actually works a lot better, I haven't been getting any weird startup issues or anything else of the sort but as of today my disk drive doesn…
I have recently acquired an 867MHz Titanium Powerbook G4. Since having it the past few days, I've learned this thing has got a huge set if problems. Most of these I think can be …

There was software that allowed it to emulate an Apple II but you couldn't run Apple II software without first running that emulation software. So in some ways that made it more li…

I assume ~tl will probably come in later on and back up what I'm saying, but yeah, its not going to happen, as others have said there's no need for it since what applies to one ver…
I have owned 4 Ti's in my lifetime.
Let me tell you those hinges are as weak as they come. When opening the LCD do so from the center so as to minimize the stress on either hinge.…
The current software forum doesn't have enough posting traffic to warrant splitting it up into sub-forums. Like others have said, most system software discussion between System 7 a…
This is a bad idea and a waste of time.
Why would we want so many sub-forums?
Simply leaving things in the Software forum is fine. There is no need to change how things are being…
A lot of what applies to System 6, 7, 8, or 9 also applies to each other. Additionally, the volume of posts is not that great. I don't think sub-forums are needed.

Post count would be a horrendous idea because we've had trouble with it in the past.
Back before the Great Crash of 2007 we had a post count display and actually had ranks based o…

I was thinking that maybe instead of just the "Software" forum we could have Sub-Forums for each of the system softwares up to OS 9? I'm not sure if this has been discussed before.…
