A half-height drive might fit the vertical constraint, but the Mac mini case is not deep enough, IIRC.

take the empty Mac Mini case and see if the Disk II innards would fit in it Click to expand... I've seen a Mini, and I've seen a Disk II, and this ain't gonna happen, no way no…

I find it rather perverse! 8-o

I found the floppy I was thinking of. The app is called MacroMind VideoWorks II. A liitle googling pointed me to MacroMind Wikipedia page, where I learned that that MacroMind later…

I can't remember the name of it... but I remember seeing someone's home-brew video compression scheme for some type of 8-bit computer (can't remember if it was the Apple II, C64, e…

Now that's going to be *very* useful! Thanks for the tip.

That's a good backup option. Click to expand... And if you end up doing that, which I think you will have to, even with Quicktime due to the 1-bit dithering, you might want to …

You can forget mpeg or anything else that requires decompression on the fly. Uncompressed 1 bit 512x384 stills shouldn't take too much space - just store them as a sequence of ima…

So I've come up with some animation software from the Plus era. It's called Hayden VideoWorks and seemed to have been pretty popular and well reviewed. There were several others as…

As Mac128 said, it might be possible if you use some kind of animation software or whatever, but you can forget about anything that uses QuickTime - even QuickTime 1 requires a 680…

I love this (and I don't know why): http://technabob.com/blog/2009/02/21/apple-ii-disk-drive-mac-mini-casemod/

My first reaction was to laugh. I mean the first requirement is to dither your video source down to 1-bit color. But there may be some application. I seem to recall some animation …

Screw the keyboard - Timbuktu it. } Click to expand... Actually, thats a good idea. When I get it up and running with OS 8, i'll put a VNC server on it.
