There were no PowerBooks made that had both ADB and USB from the factory (the only Mac that can claim that honour is the Blue and White G3). However, you can add a USB CardBus card…
. . . were any ever made?
. . . or were USB cards made for a PB with ADB already on it?
I'll admit to getting lazier w/age, but I topped out on the 1400c & don't ha…

I leave the keys around the space bar (generally the open-apple and closed-apple keys) off until I get the space bar on. That leaves some room for fiddling the metal bar on. The ba…

I just washed all of my IIe's keys. All of them went back fine except the space bar. I do not know how to put it back on. How do you do it?

I was just looking around for someone interested in a Voodoo 2 card for the Mez slot of a Bondi iMac and found these posts. I heard it was disabled with the 1.2 firmware "update." …

Thanks, for some reason I thought the only way to get SCSI in an apple IIx computer was to build one or to get one built. I'd love to get one for my IIGS So I can use my HD20SC wit…

I'm curious why it shows in the manual what looks like a HD20SC attached when there was no scsi port on the IIGS.

Yes, I've printed from my IIgs to my Apple Personal Laserwriter NTR. In the IIgs control panel, there's an option to install an ImageWriter emulator in the RAM of the LaserWriter. …

Can a IIgs use an Apple laser by chance? I never bothered to try it.

A few people I knew used Apple laser printers. I don't recall which ones though.

yeah, I tried the HD 20, no dice. It just sat there. I booted off the GS/OS system floppy, and ran the advanced disk utility on the system tools 1 disk. It did not even pick it up,…

I have an Apple Rev C SCSI card in one of my IIgs systems and it is fast enough for GS/0S use. What I like about it is if I feel like just booting from a floppy to play a game I do…

The HD20 definitely won't work on a IIgs. There were only a few macs that it'd work on. Support for it had to be in ROM and unfortunately they never did that for the Apple II line.…

Nope, the whole system has assumptions about two drives per controller "slot." It just so happens that your slots are v…

ah yes, for some reason, I had a hunch it was 4. So I can't have 3x 5.25" and 1x 3.5? Not a big deal, as I have the right cards. I just need to pull it out of my IIe.

You are allowed 4 drives on a IIgs. 2 x 3.5" and 2 x 5.25". The 3.5" have to be connected to the IIgs 1st in the chain (I have the drive manuals from Apple).
68kMLAPeripheralsby Unknown_KSat, 28 Mar 2009 - 09:00
The IIgs' smartport allows you to have 2 800K drives (mapped to slot 5) and 2 140K (slot 6)... if you really want another 5.25" drive, you'll need to install a controller card and …
