It was a nice port from what I recall. Click to expand... Yes, and I hope he updates it sometime.

I think I played that one almost a decade ago. } It was a nice port from what I recall.

Oh yes, it is true! Have you ever played Super Mario Bros. on the NES? If so, then you're in for a treat, because now you can play it on your Apple IIgs as well. http://iigs.dream…

And btw, another question: I see what looks like a SCSI card inside the IIgs. Assuming it's true, could I boot from a SCSI drive? Like could I format one of my old drives in ProDOS…

If you don't have a use for it, personally, I'd put it on eBay. I could be mistaken, but they go for hundreds of dollars on there. Anyone willing to drop several hundred dollars …

I found a new 5.25" head cleaning diskette at a thrift last year. Mostly it is the 3.5" drives that end up needing cleaning. A large q-tip with 99.99% alcohol would do the job.

Ok, so it seems my best bet is to try and clean the drives, right? Is there any easy way to do this? I already tried to take them apart, but having the plastic case off don't make …

What's the best way to clean a drive otherwise? Click to expand... Blow compressed air into it.

Take lots of pictures so we can all ooh and aah at its pristine attic ripened beauty

Now THERE'S a project for RetroChallenge! Lisa Office System is pretty capable (it even has spell check built in, a rarity for 1983 software) and integrates better than Office, iW…

My first thought would be to turn it into a web server or run a BBS off it... but I'm sometimes a bit of a masochist ;-)

Do you have a disk drive head cleaner? Click to expand... Do you mean those "fake floppies" with a cleaning brush on the disk? I don't, but I've seen some a while ago. What's t…

I have a LISA 2/10 in the attic and am seeking advice about what to do with it. I used it for years and have great respect for this machine but I am gradually facing the fact that…

Make sure the 3.5" drives are first and the 5.25" drives are connected after them.

Another possibility: since you say you can get into the Control Panel go to the Control Panel and select Slots, look at the Startup Slot setting and make sure it either says Scan o…

Then I just tried to stick one of the old floppies in a Mac. And I amazingly saw it mount just fine on the Mac's desktop, with a ProDOS icon and all its files. So it seems that my…

Do you have a disk drive head cleaner?

Hi there, Though a hardcore macuser (and collector) for a long, long time, I have to confess that I am a complete newbie in the Apple II world. I do own an Apple IIgs I got from a…

I do it on my iMac all the time. Power: i would hope so Mini-DVI: connected to 18"CRT Ethernet: wired to PowerMac G4 for uber fast transfers Firewire 800: don't have anything t…

Apart from the modem port and the Audio In port, usually my PowerBook G4 has all the ports in use. Ethernet is connected to a 5-port switch which is the core of the wired portion …

I've had all the ports on my MacBook bar the line in use once a few months back: Power: Duh! Ethernet: Crossover cable to a customer's laptop, with the MacBook acting as a bridge…

I had all the ports of my PowerBook 150 (SCSI Ethernet, Localtalk to PB 180 and Power). I also had all the ports on my Acer Aspire One filled (Power, VGA, Ethernet, USB DVD-ROM, i…

Just another one of those curiosity threads, but who has actually managed to use all the ports on their 'Book? I just managed it a little earlier, and things got a little scrambled…

Thank you very much for the reply, it cleared a few things up for me. Still how would I be able to play the midi drum set in real time? Just like a real drum set? Through a compu…

So if I have it right, I plug the drum pads into the MIDI drum controler then into the mac serial interface and then into powerbook. I load an old version of cubase Click to ex…
