Very few of the USB to serial cables support Appletalk.

I agree with MacJunky - the MP110 doesn't need a dongle - just connect using a standard Mac printer cable into whatever port on the Mac you are not using already (printer/modem). I…

The early Newtons did not need a special dongle, just a regular mini din9 or whatever serial cable(like ones the back of your Macs) With my OMP and old 68k machines I was connecti…

You need the special dongle that came with the Newton originally (if this is the same setup as the 2000) without it , no chance.

I think a Xircom will be the solution here. Its just a small device that offers two serial ports and is hooked up to the USB port of Your G3. With this one You not only can use the…

I've got an old Newton Message Pad 110. Model# H0059. I don't have any of the cable that go with it. However, it did function when I originally got it. Anyway, how would I go ab…

I just saw this now and would have loved to see Fantavision become a standard. However, I would have preferred for it to stay in Brøderbund's hands...imagine what a powerful compan…

IIRC I installed all the .pkg files from here: http://www.unna.org/unnasearch/entry.php?pkey=157 downloaded and installed the wavelan drivers and it eventually worked with a lot …

i'm having troubles getting it to work on my emate. how do i configure the driver? what files do I need to install from the NIE? and why dont the lights come on on my wavelan.

If it makes you feel any better, all but one of the iceBooks I've purchased from eBay had no less than three replacement Ethernet ID stickers under the keyboard, while some have ha…

thanks anyway

But mine works, just missing the sleep magnet :/

I thought about turning it into a headless server. Chuck a flavor of Linux on it, a DynDNS client and I'd be all set. They are noiseless and don't produce much heat. Hey, actually…

Hey, If you want, you can HAVE my iBook. It is a 500MHz. say $120 +the price of shipping?

If yours is also the GPU's departure from this hateful existence, or at least a letting go from the MLB, find trag's post here about using modelling clay to protect adjacent compon…

If you have nothing to lose, might as well try the "home BGA reflow" procedure. Get yourself a heat gun and some bourbon (ok, sake will do). The drink's for you, the heat gun's for…

So my G3 800 iBook's logic board bought the farm the other day. This is the second one it's had, too. Of course Apple's repair program has long ended, so now I have a scratched, wh…

If I get this up and running, I'll definitely keep an eye out for an upgrade kit, equant -- thanks. It is too bad that the TCP/IP connection isn't persistent; I wonder why they mad…

I've had an eMate for well I don't know. I got it new after they discontinued, so 10 years? I've used it for many things, and am quite fond of it. I do think the HWR is a bit qu…

If you do have any plroblems getting it up and running or need extra parts then this chappie, http://newtonsales.com/ does sales and repairs. Nothing wrong with putting a bit of m…

I deeply appreciate the tips, beachycove. I will perform the hard reset dance at the first opportunity. It would be nice to get it working. It looks like a neat little machine for…

The eMate is a great machine for its intended uses. Accept none of the usual insults regarding your new toy. I have fiddled with several of these over the past months, and while m…

Thanks, Rodus! That website seems to be *the* Newton place -- I'll be spending a lot of time there, I see (assuming that I resurrect this unit). As for surfing, I've got my expect…

I've found Newtscape to be the best with NetHopper a very close second, a word of warning though, surfing on an eMate is going to be slooooow. It's slow on my 2000 which has a 162…
