It is, just one done by professionals.

I experimented with the image a little bit. It looks like the disk trashes itself somewhat after you first play it, as far as I can tell. While AppleWin can continue to work with…

Hello, I really appreciate it if someone can help me get this game running on my Apple II gs. The URL link to download the page and see what the game is, right here: http://www.ro…

I thought this was a hack! *napoleon dynamite voice* LUCKY!

Digi-Key lists Fairchild BU406FS-ND TO-220 pkg at 68 cents. Going with an original might be a safer bet. Larry Pina says avoid ECG379, it can cause left side screen foldback issu…

Several years ago I bought a small lot of transistors on Ebay that the seller had billed as BU406, but they turned out to be a mixture of Samsung (SEC) 13007F 2 and Motorola F13007…

That is awesome! First I have ever seen anything like that (g3 wise anyways).

Looks VERY cool! :b&w:

There are two updates to 8.5: 8.5.1 and 8.6. After 8.6, there were no more updates to the Mac OS until Mac OS 9.

What a coincidence! My local goodwill happens to have a copy of Macworld Mac Secrets 5th Edition. (Don't know if the CD was with it.) Though as far as I know they're not having …

"Secrets" is by far the best Mac book out there. It covers all those things the other books don't and includes some pretty detailed historical reference sections. The software is a…

By chance a friend dropped by with a broken SE today, giving me an excuse to open one up. There is indeed a focus control. Have you tried adjusting it? If it has no effect, then fo…

Perfect. I've stopped using the OS 9 hard drive ( the other drive has Tiger ) after upgrading from OS 8.6 to OS 9 only because OS 9 would not get along with many of my audio/midi …

The 8500 Shipped with OS 7.5.x. I don't recoomend 7.5.2 but anything 7.5.5 or later (7.6.1 and 8.1 are perfect for a stock 8500) will do nicely. On G3 equipped 8500 I go for OS 9.1…

Hi Gary, Did your tech check R26 to see if it is shorted or open? I ask because I've seen this exact problem on three or four Mac Pluses and Pina's recommendation to check the c…

Yep, not a problem. The PowerMac 8500 is supported by Apple to run any version of Mac OS from System 7.5.2 to Mac OS 9.1, including Mac OS 8.0, 8.1, 8.5, 8.5.1 and 8.6. (of course…

You mean Mac OS 8? Sure. A 9600 can even still do 7.x, the last Power Mac that could.

I can not recall if the 8500 can do 8.

We'll see how the CPU swap goes before I decide on overclocking. I actually have a Q605 and an LC475 as well as two 68040 donor machines, so I have some room for error. My end goal…

nb: 40MHz is not always stable though. A heatsink/fan for the 040 would be a good idea. http://homepage.mac.com/schrier/q605_40.html Output Enablers sell some useful parts. …

I'm finally getting around to swapping the 68LC040 in my Q605 for a full 68040. I have a 68040 donor machine ready to go, put I have no experience pulling chips. Any advice on wher…
