Quadra 950 (+ WGS95 card) — #8

Very nice. As for the WGS 95 card...I'm fairly sure that you actually need A/UX in order for it to work. It'll run with 7.01 or 7.1 installed...but I don't think it'll actually …

A smaller fan makes a Q950 a much better neighbour. As long as you don't stuff it full of Nubus cards and drives, it works fine with a smaller fan and without the wind tunnel produ…

Why do you think the PDS card does not work? It is made for A/UX only and while it will boot in OS 7.01 (wont work but the machine will boot), newer mac OS versions tend to hang/cr…

I'd love it if there was a KIP/MacIP based package that you could use on a Mac 512K (no, a 128K will never cut it) to access a Unix box. I've tried it, and I have exchanged mail wi…
