I think that there is some confusion here. The early Mac models have ROMs that are in a DIP package. Examples: 128K/512K, 512Ke/Plus, SE and SE FD/HD. Later Macs (SE/30 and IIfx) …

The way I read it you wanted the 128k to do SLIP or PPP. Both can be done, but you have to basically duplicate the functionality of MacTCP in a small memory space. Click to expa…

To do any expanding of the funcationalilty of the 128k like you describe you are going to have to do real programming ( Pascal, C or assembler ). Click to expand... You couldn'…

For many non-UNIX users on this forum, these kinds of projects usually die a quick death since it involves some advanced configuration of tools which are not familiar to most Mac u…

you also need System 6.0.2 or higher lest the Macintosh II still mistake the high-density drive as an 800kB mechanism. Click to expand... Yes I read that and was surprised cons…

Just use a terminal emulator! Click to expand... Seconded. Here's a vt100 terminal emulator that supposedly runs on a 128k Mac. There are many recipes out there to enable a tt…

Yeah, as a part of the Mac II FDHD upgrade you do need IIx ROMs. I don't think the SWIM controller will fully function without it, as the Mac II ROMs most likely don't have the rig…

I will run from a 1400/2400/3400/Kanga/Wallstreet/Pismo adapter as well as from a Duo ps if that's any use.

got this monster i dug out of a box, missing lots of stuff, but i forget if the mobo was any good or not. What is the pinout of the DC jack? thanks.

I believe the SE/30, and IIx ROMs are identical. Since the Mac II can be upgraded to FDHD, does that also upgrade it to the IIx ROM? I know the SE/30 can use a IIfx and IIsi ROM.…

Just use a terminal emulator! Alternatively you could do a cut-down IP stack with PPP and minimized POP3 client.

It seems to me that since the original 128K and 512K can run BBS software to share e-mail and files via those old networks, and later, services like FidoNet allowed those dial-up n…

When I go to the page with all the downloads which one is the disk images of MacMovies?

What is the download link for the disk images? Click to expand... Read the whole thread.

Nice, thanks! I'll eventually put the Macminitosh in there when I find some time.
