All right, so I thought that the 2 GB HD in the Power Mac 8100/80 was toast, but it turned out that the System Folder had gotten unblessed for some reason. I booted up with a CD an…
Yes, but it's one of the most annoying things ever with all the pinching and zooming you have to do.

I have to agree, since I have an iTouch and browse this …
It doesn't have a manufacturer, or model name on it? Another idea...does it have an FCC ID or Patent number? You might be able to do a search on one of those and find something. An…
jruschme's right - you'll need a first gen Power Mac to use the card. It says "DOS on Power Mac", rather than simply "DOS on Mac", which leads me to believe that the card is actual…
I don't know anything about iPhones, since I haven't used one for any more than a minute at the Apple Store, though doesn't the iPhone's version of Safari render pages (including f…
Mice have caps in them too, but I've yet to have a mouse go bad on me, so I've never taken the time to swap out the caps. And that holds true for mice manufactured in 1984 and ear…
It could be a bad ADB connector. I had these on both sides of the IIgs keyboard I used with my SE/30. I resoldered the pads but still had problems. I then replaced the cable but…

Some random finds from the boxes:
A Spectrum SE/30 pds video card with cable and connection assembly for SE/30 (maybe the SE too?);
A Radius Two-Page Display SE/30 pds video (thi…

One full Dodge Grand Caravan load and one further half load later, I am well and truly stocked up on old Mac goodies - i.e., my Garage is a great deal more full of crap than it wa…

Yeah, that's what I had gathered from Lowendmac and such. I suppose I'll be on the lookout for one then - I've been wanting a desktop Power Mac besides the fact.

I don't think the DOS card would work in a 6400 since it has to connect to either the PDS slot of the 8100 or a NUBUS slot, neither of which the 6400 has.
The closest you might ge…
Had an amazing haul at Goodwill yesterday, best in ages!

I really want one of these. The best place to look is probably ebay Germany and hope the seller understands English and is willing to ship it to you. Most of the less well known cl…
I have long advised against formatting 1.4MB disks as 800K. I read they were unreliable in just about every book on Macs and wanted to see for myself.
Way back in 1995, I covered …

Congrats! New 800k floppies are hard to come by these days.

Yeah, and trying to format HD floppies as lower density floppies is almost always unreliable at b…
Have you tried a different keyboard?
Have you tried plugging the mouse and keyboard into separate ADB ports, instead of plugging the mouse into the keyboard?
Have you tried alter…

I had two conquests late this afternoon, both of which I feel are worth sharing!
First, for something I can use with my old 68Ks. I got two brand new shrinkwrapped boxes of floppi…
