I would think industrial machines had RS-422 so you can hook up quite a few devices to one line (each having its own ID). Anyway can't you just send data over the serial port on a…

For the record, these things already exist. Here's an example of one. Similar devices exist for Ethernet as well. To clarify matters a little bit, these are not general purpose "n…

more than enough for your mac plus

OK, yeah, that would be pretty cool...but what kind of throughput are you going to get on the RS232 port???

Huh?

RS-232 to wireless ethernet would be cool. I have a suspicion that the chip controlling it would be more powerful than the Mac using it though Using one with a PowerBook 100 w…

Is it April 1 where you are living?

I have yet to confirm this, but "generally reliable sources" inform me that there is a company that is working on a WiFi module with an RS-232 interface for industrial applications…

That's an amazing haul! Especially with all the packaging. Congrats :approve:

Well I'm a genius. Putting one of my spare SE 800k drives in the case works like a charm. I think the original drive is just gunked up, it doesn't look physically damaged and is sl…

Incredible! :O
