HEY EVERYBODY! MY NAME IS RICHARD, AND THE REASON I AM MAKING THIS POST IS THAT I WAS WONDERING SOMETHING ABOUT SCSI "MICRODOCKS" FOR POWERBOOK DUOS. MY QUESTION IS ARE THEY RARE? …

Oh, man... I'd love the IIgs. Too bad I'm on the Left Coast.

Please go pick this up now! I'd gladly reimburse for a couple 57X's next time I'm over there. Also a $5 IIgs, some early PMacs ... good day for vintage computer buffs!

Well, yeah, those too. xD You can run System 7.5+ if you really need to for networking purposes, but you should at least run it with upgraded RAM.

So before I came here, my Macintosh LC (my original one) had to be parted out because there was only a grey screen on startup and the floppy drive was totally dead. (it wouldn't re…

System 7.1 Click to expand... And about 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 non-Pro?

Nice score on some great gear! I've always had a special place for the case styling of the 81/8500 series of computers. A nice looking mini-tower, with power under the hood. I ha…

Eh, don't feel that way. As long as the HD's not a Conner, it should be perfectly fine. In fact, these drives pop up on eBay sometimes. I even saw a lot of 14 2.5 SCSI hard drives…

This look interesting as well: http://dreher.net/?s=projects/CFforAppleII&c=projects/CFforAppleII/main.php I've contacted the guy about the pricing and availability.

Is the 40 MB 2.5 SCSI HD a Conner? If so, then those weren't very reliable and had a tendency to die, so I'm pretty sure the HD's toast. The reason why it has no SCSI power connec…

A 2.5" only needs +5VDC so that should be easy enough. You can get pinouts of drives at http://pinouts.ru/pin_HD.shtml I was just looking online and there are adapters available. …

Hi, I've looked at what I have, and I'm unsure how to follow this project. Let's see: I reopen my IIgs and looked inside it. There is no such thing as a way to get a 3.5" HD powe…

I had a bit of time yesternight to look at the Apple Macintosh CD which is for the 7200, 9500 and a few other Macs. It's dated 1996 and says that it has System 7.5.3 on it. However…

I did this quite a few months ago with same setup (Classic and a IIgs). Amusing, yes, but it's easier just to use a disk with AppleShare and put the Finder on the Classic, IMO.

All you need is.... Appleshare 3 Click to expand... And lots of spare time ;-) I recall doing that and the boot time was several minutes... though to be fair, I may not have…

It's a coincidence that you mention that, because I've had the CD for years now and never could use the OS (just the assorted goodies like Gerbils and what-not). I have not tried i…

All you need is.... Appleshare 3 Remote boot a IIgs over localtalk from a performa. I still have the software, but my IIgs and other stuff got stolen

To be frank, I'd stick with System 7.1 and not touch System 7.5.3. Your Macintosh Classic II will feel slower with System 7.5.3. 50-pin hard drives (which your Macintosh Classic I…

There's an electronics waste/collection place by my house, and every once in awhile, I check out what's in the dumpster behind the building. So far I've acquired a Netpliance I-Ope…

If you want a copy of the original 7.1.2 for PowerPC, I think I just found my OS disc collection, and could image the disc for you. (Only the very first set of PPCs could run 7.1.…

Wow! My total CPU count has doubled in the past week, but my wallet remains at a constant size. 8-o First conquest: Power Mac 8100/80 from the library of a neighboring village.…

What I mean to say is, I got it running and everything, but I could not get it to connect to the G3. So, I found another program called DCOM which worked just fine.

You couldn't get it working? I did. You will need to manipulate the SHK's on Cidepress according to the manual's instructions for file placement. When I get home I could send you s…
