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…

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…

If you've managed to scrape the paint off, I'd love to see an "after" picture!

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…

My room doesn't smell like old pizza! But I think one of my cats coughed up a big, nasty hairball in my closet, and another peed on some stuff in my closet... And I don't hav…

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 …

Simple solutions: Lounge: Lets wipe the current Lounge and start fresh and forget all this crap. Software: Archive and start fresh (some of that info is useful).

Yep, Scott was kind enough to sell me the Macintosh IIci that he conquested a bit back. It is indeed a horrible paint job, but it scrapes off easily. Works great too!

Wild, foot-stomping applause @ Mike and Trash80 above.

I know it sucks but clean up your room, theres 1 con to 2 pro's con: you have to clean up your room pro 1: you can have another mac pro 2: your room wont smell like old pizza, a…

I've changed the "View New Posts" link at the top of the page to exclude the Lounge Click to expand... Seems like a good idea to me, although after all the years of my coming t…
