Halfway through a system 7.1.1 install and... — #6

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.…

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…

Empty? Guess there isn't a pot of gold at the end of each rainbow Click to expand... A new CD caddy is better than nothing. You don't get CD's with the caddies. xD

MIDI and the Roland JV-1010 on a Mac Classic II — #4

I found a place that has MIDI Manager but for some reason the StuffIt I have on my MacBook Pro doesn't want to open it. It's here: http://www.harmony-central.com/Software/Mac/midi…

MIDI and the Roland JV-1010 on a Mac Classic II — #2

A good idea is to use Apple MIDI Manager/PatchBay and OMS (yes, a System 7.1 compatible version is out there). I believe that neither are too hard to find. Here is OMS for System…
