I think it's just a typo. I'm guessing the author meant to write "mid-2004" but accidentally wrote "mid-2009" because he was thinking about "10.2.9" from earlier in the sentence.

Wow not true.

Yeah, that strikes me as very un-Apple-like. Since OS X first came out, they have only ever released ONE update after the next major release came out (10.4.11,) and that was less …

Are your MIDI send and receive channels consistent on the Mac and the JV? In other words, are you sending the MIDI data out of the Mac and into the JV on the same MIDI channel?

Definitely odd, and it seems very unlike Apple to do this for such an old version of OS X. :?:

Nice paneling!

Just thought I'd share :beige: { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", "lightbox_error": "The requested conte…

That's super weird. I wonder if it's not really some kind of automatic year insert, such as "10.2.9 will be released in mid-[CURRENT_YEAR] to address several bugs", but that would …

" There are rumors that 10.2.9 will be released in mid-2009 to address several bugs and vulnerabilities that remain in version 10.2.8." http://lowendmac.com/osx/jaguar-10.2/index.…

I installed that and opened a .MID file that I had made on another computer and I didn't get any signal coming out of the machine into the MIDI unit I have. I don't understand what…

It's also interesting how he prices everything for the insane Apple collecting freak. Fortunately for me, most all of what he sells, I already possess. I live, more or less, relati…

Here's another auction by danapplemacman with his usual collection of fantastic photos. An obviously fantastic example of an operational 128K for any collector, as usual lovingly r…

I have never seen a Clearance Center. They operate "Clothing Stores" and stores called "ComputerWorks" around here, but there may be a large repository of donated items that isn't…

Here's the download for MIDIgraphy from Harmony Central: http://www.harmony-central.com/Software/Mac/midigraphy.html

Update: Installed a lean version of 7.5.3, now to replace those leaky gross caps on the logic board. Bleh.

There's a shareware sequencer called MIDIgraphy that IIRC will run on System 7. Searching these forums for MIDI will reveal other clues.

Ok I finally used what little knowledge of UNIX I have to figure out what I was doing wrong and make a proper boot disk. Thanks to JRL for helping me get my computer to boot up ag…

Man thats a sweet deal, I'd love to get a saturn at that price haha.

I mean I did exactly what the procedure in the link I posted above told me to do. It seemed to work fine, no error messages were displayed. What am I doing wrong?

What machine are you installing 7.1 on, and do you have another old Mac to verify the network disk you made? Pretty much any Mac that came with a floppy drive will boot from the 7.…

The local Goodwill used to have the main store (standard botique setup, albeit larger), something called "Buy the Pound" (which sounds like your clearance centre), and an electroni…

So I had to just turn the machine off before the install finished and now when I boot up I get the old "The 'System' file on this startup disk may be damaged. The Installer can be …

Anyone ever heard of this offshoot of Goodwill, called the Goodwill Clearance Center? There's one now right behind the "Super" Goodwill where I am, near Asheville NC (it's like a G…

An alternative to 7.1.1 is 7.5.3 (freely available from Apple; no need to download an unauthorized OS release of dodgy ancestry). If the size bothers you, just use Gamba's "digital…
