I would support Lounge threads being removed after a long period, such as 3 months without a post, unless the thread has some kind of significance. However, it is impractical to j…

To those of you who would support The Lounge being removed, would you support a Mac swap meet where discussing something other than Macs is banned? Click to expand... I don't w…

Oops! It just "burped" at me - a short, low (not bong) beep, and the cursor locked up, so still a problem with "Lonely Mac" syndrome. Maybe memory as Phreakout suggested earlier? …

Try installing a fresh copy of the system first. I've found bus errors and address errors to occur frequently when software is corrupt (system or otherwise).

BTW, that number I posted was illegal... } :lol:

Some of my other interests and places I joined to talk about them: Old 486/P1 thinkpads, discussed in a Thinkpad forum DOS gaming, DOSgames forum Amigas, English Amiga Forum, Le…

I agree with everything Scott said except for the copyright stuff. Scott is on the far end of "Downloading that system 0.85 boot disk would be illegal", but most of us don't care a…

it will often lead to something negative ... Click to expand... Since Scott felt this "needs to be discussed," I guess I will add further thoughts. If we disallow posting beca…

I've waited to post my response to this discussion until now only so I could get a feel of how other members felt about the "state of the 68MLA". I will address each issue one at a…

It's nice to have a topic like this put "decline" at the front of everyone's mind. :-/

I think you people are missing the point, what keeps the 68kmla going is the people who have knowledge of 68k and early ppc macs who come to talk about them, and then maybe some ot…

I am an "oldie" here and yet I have a hard time digesting the new-fangled, Twitterific-style "community / socialization." Yet, if one wishes to define "community on this site" as …

SUCCESS!! Thanks all (Phreakout, Mac128, LCGuy) for your advice, here's how I finally got things to work. Using a 7.0.1 Disk Tools disk, modified with Ramdisk 3.2.3, I booted the …

Removing The Lounge is like saying you can't discuss anything except Macs at a Mac swap meet. Mike: Yeah, those new MacBook Pros are awesome. Joe: They're pretty great. Mike: So…

There are no Intel mac forums here yet. Click to expand... Hence why that gets discussed in the Lounge.
