We see this type of spam-bot a lot. They make seemingly innocent posts (which are often slightly incoherent as it seems they assemble them from snippets of other posts, as macgeek4…

Get your boot floppies here. Always good to have one handy with a classic Mac.

If you really want, I can send over copies of System 6.0.4/6.0.8/7.1/7.5 boot disks to you. You only really need a bootable system disk with the Apple CD-ROM driver.

If you have a newer mac go find a USB floppy drive and then download OS 7.01 or 6.08 disk images from Apples website. Click to expand... You can't make 800k disks (which is wha…

If you have a newer mac go find a USB floppy drive and then download OS 7.01 or 6.08 disk images from Apples website. Or just buy OS disks on ebay. You eventualy have to spend a …

I'm beginning to really pull my hair out. ready to start smashing things. I am in a bit of a pickle. since no machine besides this SE/30 that i own has a floppy drive, i got issue…

hmm, It looked like a spam bot to me. If he was going to spam correctly he shouldve made a new thread

Shure thing! (btw Christopher can i have 600 bucks?)

Someone must bid on this! That's too cool to pass up.

I'm going to talk to the other mods, they may hold a different opinion...but I just find it quite suspicious that a member signs up, and has a link in his signature to a business l…

Never happened before, never had any complaints? Yeah it's not often a new (and deleted) user has a friend on the forum to bring it to your attention....if it was me and I got dele…

I reckon you guys (moderators) are just a little bit over zealous in cleaning up this forum. When it's getting to the point that a friend has to post question on behalf of another …

I bet it was another one of those "inteligent" spammers that reads other posts and assembals a post based on them,m and it had just read the Snow Leopard thread before spamming.

Ah, he had a link in his signature to an Indian data entry website. That screams spammer to me. Anyway, the post, and all related posts have been removed. Click to expand... I…

I have a Security panel on my 10.6 System Preferences. It's under the "personal" group and is represented by a picture of a house with what appears to be a safe lock on it. This is…

Apple doesn't provide a control panel called "Security". He probably needs to uninstall or update whatever 3rd party software it's part of.

Ah, he had a link in his signature to an Indian data entry website. That screams spammer to me. Anyway, the post, and all related posts have been removed.

Yeah, the Cadillac...very neat concept that never quite made it. I wonder if this one actually has the real Newton OS? The only other one I've ever seen photos of had a very barebo…

This question was posted in the software forum in a thread about System 7.0.1. Some have accused Mr. Thomas of being a spammer, although I am under the impression that he is simply…

The DIPs are historical artifacts. Until the early or mid 1990s, most monitors used a fixed frequency. For all intents and purposes, this meant that a monitor ran at particular h…

WOW!!! 8-o That's cool - Newton Bic. Nice find!
