Difference Between Apple /// & IIGS? — #18
I have often heard the claim that the Apple /// was intentionally crippled, usually for marketing reasons and always with the implication that it did not have to be done. But is t…
Server 10.4 Not booting — #2
Is it a case of the firmware not wanting to boot from the DVD? Typically firmware updates can be done from MacOS 9.
What has 10.5 got to do with the issue?
Server 10.4 Not booting — #1
I have the installer dvd for a g4, 10.4 server
It will not pot or mount, unless i stick the disk in after os 9 has loaded, the only way i think i could install it is to install 10…
Difference Between Apple /// & IIGS? — #17
Apple used to brag at the time that the /// was a 16-bit machine because there was a state machine appended to the 6502 to handle 16-bit words and the data buss fetched 16 bits at …

I second this - hopefully we can find someone with enough spare time to scan the entire book.

How to write 400k disks on 90's 68k? — #19
As for dates, Apple sent us a prototype a few months before release. There were other developers who were seeded with prototypes much earlier.

How to write 400k disks on 90's 68k? — #18
I guess I'll have to dig the old Mac out of the closet and put the 64K ROMs back in it. I was under the impression that the 1.4 drives only worked with the SWIM chips, and didn't r…
How to write 400k disks on 90's 68k? — #17
It's been a while so my memory may be fuzzy, but I got my first Mac at work in Nov '83, and bought my own Mac in May '84. A bit later Apple came out with the first 3.5" Apple][ dri…

Classic II (my first 68k Mac and it's a compact!) — #14
The original Classic was released as part of a line-up which also included the LC and the IIsi. All three of the machines were intended for the low-budget market: Classic as the ch…
Classic II (my first 68k Mac and it's a compact!) — #13
I find it odd how Apple went from expandable SE/SE30's to a Classic 2 with no expansion whatsoever.

Maybe stupid, but not odd. There's a simple explanation w…
How to write 400k disks on 90's 68k? — #15
A 128 can read & write to an 800K external drive. A 1.4 drive won't work. When I got my Mac in 1984, one of the first upgrades I made was to stick an 800K mechanism from an…

Classic II (my first 68k Mac and it's a compact!) — #12
The two major issues with compacts is capacitors dying and screen burn/focus problems.

The Classic II is a great little unit. Very sleek looking for a basic box. Very usable for a lot of writing jobs. Adding a newer harddrive will speed things along. When you d…

Well, I'VE got a PB100 trick up MY SLEEVE too!
It seems, in their infinite idiocy, that Epson left out support for the 68000 when they wrote the drivers for the original Epson Sty…

Washing them? Interesting. When I get it opened I'll take some pictures of the board and caps and let you guys see what they look like.
Yep the casing is in great condition (bar t…

Some of us think washing the little buggers a viable (if temporary) alternative to The Full re-capping Monty, but YMMV.
What version of 7 was on there? 7.0 should be snappy enough…
Classic II (my first 68k Mac and it's a compact!) — #8
Urk so that's why I see so much re-capping talk. One more thing to look at when I get it opened then.

One problem I'm noticing is that the speaker will start crackling after a while. Volume goes down lower and eventually you can't even hear the startup chime. Loose wire maybe?

Not to mention putting the 68030 on a 16-bit bus.
I created a 6.0.8L disk set, initialized the hard disk and put on a lean install (Classic II System Software only, no printers) a…

1.) Why is the Classic II second class?
2.) To which Mac is it second class?
