Yea, a HD (even SCSI) makes GS/OS much nicer to run. I have a transwarp GS in one of my IIgs and that speeds things up quite a bit (that machine has the REV C SCSI card and an 8MB …

Was the Mark Twain canned because it might compete with the Mac? I imagine that with an 2 megs of RAM, an 8Mhz processor and a built-in HDD it might actually run GS/OS tolerably...…

Well, that site has been around for more than a decade. Back then the pictures were quite good.

Thanks. Its a shame there aren't better quality pictures available.

http://www.apple2.org should have info on the machine, as well as a few snapshots of the Twain on vacation.

Does anyone have any photos or other information about this machine? I know they never went beyond the prototype stage but it would be fun to see more pictures or information about…

Much in the same way as how stuff you order from Apple decides to show up after you decide to cancel your order. (back in 2004/2005 I waited 3 months to get an iPod, the very da…

Well, it seems to have decided to fix itself after I made an appointment at the Genius Bar; funny how these machines fix themselves when you call Apple

book123, I have sent you a link. If anyone else needs these files, send me a PM and I will give you the link.

The standard things to check are the connectors, both at the motherboard and at the display panel itself. The latter in particular are somewhat infamous for developing poor contact…

The screen keeps flickering a brown hue and colors are off. :-/ halp? :O

Hi all, please anybody could share the Mac OS ROM 2.5.1 or the os 8.6 for my Sawtooh? I have 8.5 original, but it wont run thanks in advance.

Ahh, sounds good. I found the handwriting recognition was 100x better on the 2000 than on the MP100, but since you can run OS 2.0 you should be good to go. They make great little…

No perticular reason. The fact that is was a good price and came boxed and in mint condition were good. A 2000/2100 would have been good but they tend to be rather expensive and I…

Unfortunately it sounds like it's failing. If you have something else to boot off of on the machine, such as another PPC Mac like your G4 via Target Disk Mode, do that. You'll at l…

My little 12" AlBook seems to be having some issues with its superdrive. Any disk that I insert is sucked in, pondered for a few seconds, then immediately spat back out. Blank CDs …

Sounds cool. I've never seen a 120 before. I've got a 100, 2000. and 2100. Definitely cool. Any reason you picked the 120?

I just thought I would mention that I bought a MessagePad 120 recently. I havn't recieved it yet. It will probably come next week as it is coming from Spain. It is boxed and in mi…

In disk utility, try selecting the drive itsself, and clicking mount!

Juat a warniing about cleaning disks and Apple 5.25 drives(and any other other single sided 5.25 drives you may find on classic computers) Using a cleaning disk one one of thse ca…

Hi all and many thanks for the replies! Actually I still didn't take the time to further investigate those drives. And I just put the IIgs back on its shelf this morning, to make …

did u have any joy?

Those beige G3 drives had issues when new,they have under run problems. just replace the Cd drive with something better. My mad dog works great. [] ]'>

Love my mint 5300ce... threw a CF Card in there for an internal hard drive. Works great, and has a double capacity battery that lasts for about 5 hours, and I have a flush wifi ca…

Great discussion. I wrote these specs years ago... they might come in handy (check the GLOD solution there, although looks like you already tried it). Also, like at links at bott…
