It's taking a pause. Keeping real-time games in sync on modern hardware with full networking protocols is hard enough. The whole game needs to be rewritten in assembly language an…

I see this is about a year old, anything new on this front? Sounds like you need software flow control written into it.

Speaking of IPNetRouter, according to this page http://www.sustworks.com/site/news_promo.html, you can use the original version for free. Of course you'd need a 68k Mac/Powermac as…

Oh yeah, I can't believe I forgot about that - the keyboard. Thats another thing I love about the 1400...it has one of the best laptop keyboards I've ever typed on, out of the hund…

They are amazingly durable, and you've got to love the keyboard. I am using mine less now that I have the Pismos, but I still love to type on them. I always admired the Duos, neve…

My 1400 love also comes from nostalgia. It was my first laptop, a hand-me-down from my brother-in-law who said if I could fix it, I could have it. A new LCD and inverter later, it …

Personally, I love the 1400 series mostly because the 1400 was my first ever PowerBook, which I've had since new. While yes, they are very upgradable for a PowerBook, I have to adm…

Why would you be banned for talking positively about a 68k over a PPC, on a 68k-related board? I fully agree. The 1400-series is interesting, sure... But the 68k's are where the…

I know I'm going to get banned for this, but: I couldn't care less about the 1400s. Yes they were great machines, expandable, and all that. However I just don't like them for some…

My 540C actually had its little "PowerBook 540C" badge replaced with "PowerPC" so I'm thinking it used to have an official Apple PPC upgrade. Unfortunately, it's just 68k still

Use it to play Civilization! http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/demos_updates/civilizationiii.html Or use it for chatting, surfing non-flash sites, iTunes, DVD watching, …

I actually just ordered a CF-IDE adapter. Apparently these work very well in the 2300c. CF to SCSI would be a bit of a trick. Maybe I should look into that one for 280c owners.

Here's another idea: build a card that replaces the HDD with a CF or SD card, wifi and bluetooth... and then send me two of them for testing purposes ;-) There are cards like th…

If you ever get that working, I'd happily pay far-too-much for one, if my budget even remotely permits. (Sadly, right now, my budget for such things is ZERO.)

Ding ding. We have a winner. I have some friends who DO have the hardware hacking skills. Basically, I want to build an ethernet adapter into a floppy adapter's chassis, and use s…

I imagine he means something that I have long wondered about hacking: Use the floppy adapter *SOLELY* for the PDS dock connector and shell, and rig up an Ethernet chip (a la the o…

Whu? How do you imagine you are going to get WiFi from a floppy adapter?

Wow, I sure do wish Chiefs-Trading-Post shipped internationally. =( I could use a NewerTechnology Floppy adapter or two to cannibalize for evil. And by evil, I mean WiFi.

I do that to my 386, but its actually dealing with all of it by itself, this configuration all the 'heavy lifting' is done on a much more powerful computer and just sent to the // …

If you had an ethernet port, do you think an Apple II would be able to use a wireless bridge to connect to a router?

Ah, thanks. It's got the normal 540c chime. Oh well... Thanks for your help though!

Determine by startup chime. If it has a 540 chime, it is 68k. If it has a 500/PPC chime, it is PowerPC. http://mactracker.dreamhosters.com/

Nope, it doesn't have graphing calculator installed. Once I can get my PC and my 540c to play nice, though, I'll see if I can find a utility to tell me what processor is installed.…

Do you have Graphing Calculator installed? If so, it will give an error when you open it on a 68k Mac. "Sorry, Requires Power Macintosh" or something to that effect.

It may have been a universal install; it appears as if the people who installed the software were from Tiger Foods. :?: They could have just made a universal set of floppies. If…
