welcome back funky toad.

That really is a great find! I seem to recall one of my high school teachers having some similar pins.

Ew, Kid Desk...I remember they loaded that, er, "thing" onto the computers at my primary school in grade 7. For young 6 - 8 year old kids who didn't know anything about computers, …

I always found At Ease neat. I remember there was a glitch with it and Odell Down Under where after quitting the program you could get to the Finder. I remember seeing that for the…

Would this cable work? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/615942-REG/TecNec_LT_RS_2_3_Rosetta_Stone_LT_RS_2_3_RS_232.html Click to expand... I imagine that should work fine. …

At Ease ... good memories of that program. Everyone I've met hated it, but I liked it :-/

I finally found a copy of Cliff Joyce's masterpiece "Calculator Construction Set" thanks to waynes.com. I haven't tried it yet (I really don't want to unshrinkwrap this rarity!) bu…

You could try removing the drive and physically hold it in your hand and twist it back and forth vigorously, as if trying to make the platters inside turn back and forth. This com…

If the drive doesn't spin, the bearings are likely "frozen up" and the spindle motor can't break it free to start it spinning. You could try removing the drive and physically hold…

I'm trying to get a HyperDrive 20 to work. The drive sits in a Mac Plus and seems to physically dead, as the logic board on the drive is working, but the drive doesn't spin up. I …

I need to score a complete set of OS X install discs soon. I have every version of Mac OS from 7.5-9.2.1 and am starting to bring some OS X capable machines back to life and have n…

I have a 1.25ghz DP G4 MDD with a Radion 9000 pro video card running 10.5.8. I have it connected to a Sony 46" LCD TV via a DVI-HDMI adapter. I use it mostly as a PVR, a video play…

I found a link for the Tiger patch - they didn't make it easy. Archive it while you can, it probably won't be there forever. http://tcsupport.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/tcsupport.cfg/ph…

My MDD is temporarily offline for repairs, but the highest I have used was 10.4.11. It works great! As I recall, there were only a couple of features which didn't work, and they we…

Well, it won't run faster (apart from now having cache working of course) unless you change the jumper settings.

Wait: if this is all about testing OS X browsers, why do you need OS X Server at all? Click to expand... The issue is he wants to stay "legal" within the letter of the "law", …

We are trying to find a way to test various mac browsers through the mac os's without having the extra equipment available. I know how to get this done, but I didn't know osx serv…

Yeah, I mounted it on my G5 and moved it back over to the 9600. It's working now. Not much faster than before but at least I'm running a G3 now.

And I found this: By Jonathan A. Oski The Mac is tackling many tasks that were not thought possible just a couple of years ago, but there are many areas where timesaving imp…

Daystar RAM PowerCard. Click to expand... Thanks for the actual product name. A Google search turned up this page: http://www.linkology.com/daystar/ however, all the links …

Nice find! I would love that Mac OS X Server 1.0 (Rhapsody) disk. I can't seem to find those anywhere.

You know that might work.... I still have a few Proliant 5000 units. At least they are Compaq beige. They would fit right in at 7U in height, and once stripped are an incredible…

Somebody from the old IRC channel has the 840AV version of a RAM card that used 8 x 72 pin SIMMs (32MB max each for 256MB total). I think Newer technology sold it. It was pretty fa…

I have seen only one of these, on eBay a few years back. It sold for something outrageous even then, before the prices of nubus-era equipment began to go up. As I recall, the writ…
