removal of the quote button *rollseyes* Perhaps if people could easily edit their posts they could tidy up some of their quotes?

Yes but if we all PMed you about the same thing, wouldn't that get even more annoying then just blocks of quotes?

how is someone supposed to easily follow the flow of the conversation? Click to expand... By reading it? Exhibit A: fail. Exhibit B: fail. To spell it out for the hard of le…

Shockingly, I'm not going to quote anyone here. As a relatively recent and relatively uninvolved member of this nice little piece of the internet, my opinion probably means an inf…

Having the exact same post made by 10 different people and all of them being responded to with basically the same reply adds to the clutter more than one big post containing an ent…

yes because you 3 are the only reason this place exist, the rest of us dont care and if you for some reason think your personal rights have been trampled on, no one is forcing you…

Even on a single serial port, you can run an adapter with three MIDI OUT ports. That said, I assume timing accuracy between ports would be restricted by the serial bandwidth betwe…

Can we just skip to the end, where a moderator locks this thread while failing at pretending to care what the actual forum members think?

Hmmm. Well if you intend to sell the 128K, then yes for some collectors, sockets upset the authenticity. The reality is, it should have had sockets, but Jobs nixed it. Any one of u…

I don't see that as a problem, in the old days it was: RTFM! Here, it's: RTFThread! If there are two or three snippets you really NEED to add to your post for context, go ahead, y…

The thing is, though, that if nested quotes is the issue, how is someone supposed to easily follow the flow of the conversation? If I quote a message that replies to a prior messag…

I've seen stock 512k boards for as low as $50 so for all the work of socketing the chips on a 128k board plus the cost of the sockets and new chips it's better just to buy the whol…

I've ignored the war room discussion about this issue, so I was just as surprised as anyone else. That being said, I didn't have any problem at all quoting something for context in…

and a lot more work! I would definitely put a socket in for any chip I removed, but it's a big job to do it unnecessarily for all of them, and might cause more problems than it's …

Most EDO will work, but it's not used on any of the x500 or x600 motherboards from Apple. The reason that the speed matters is that there were plenty of models which drove the mem…

You might as well remove all the chips and put in some good sockets. You can then choose between having 128k of memory with 64k x 1 chips or 512k with 256k x 1. It was a common upg…

As for finding replacement chips, it's hard to say. There might be a chip usable for this on http://www.arcadecomponents.com/memory.html, but I don't know enough to say much on tha…

That sounds like a safe bet according to my book (MacWEEK Upgrading and repairing your mac). The tables are a little hard to decipher, but i'm guessing it's a class code 4 (Memory …

The error code theoretically tells you exactly which chips to replace. I don't have the codes handy at the moment but they can be found almost anywhere on the net. I've checked out…

Good point Bunsen. There was some software that allowed one to use both serial ports. This is exactly why the PowerBook 100 had a modem port replacement serial port, as many musici…

Thanks for the reply. The information I can find says that the 8600/9600 can use either EDO or FPM, but the Kansas MB's needed 60NS sticks. Of the two 8600's here, the 8600/200 h…

So I replaced the power board in my 128k and I am now getting Sad Mac 040002 at bootup. From what I can gather there is some bad memory on the motherboard that causes this. Does an…
