If a programmer ceases support of a product they should either make an unprotected full version available for distribution...their software will be made available in unprotected fo…

you know that this thread went cold 1.5 years ago

Speaking of the waveLan driver (of which I know nothing except that it exists), what was the last version you tried? The last version available on the site is 1.08a and Mark Hoekst…

Ah.... so it's actually the paper copies before (and including?) Vol VI that are worth picking up, assuming you want to do any development for System 6 or lower? The hardware info…

I've got the opportunity to pick up the paper edition of Inside Mac vol. VI - the huge one. Click to expand... It contains all the System 7 introductions, eg process Manager, A…

Just as a whiney aside, I'd love to find PDFs of "Inside Macintosh" volumes IV and V, IV particularly. My Google-Fu has failed me miserably on those... no, wait, I'd never just Goo…

While we're on the subject: I've got the opportunity to pick up the paper edition of Inside Mac vol. VI - the huge one. Is it worth it, compared to a PDF? Yes, I do prefer to re…

I'm going to be putting some old Mac tech notes which had been posted in comp.binaries.mac on my site later this month, but there's probably all of them on Apple's site already. Th…

I used to have the URL for where Apple keeps the PDFs of Inside macintosh and the tech notes. I can't find my bookmark and my google-fu is failing me. Anyone have it handy?

The second post mentioned "The device I saw looked much like a VT-100 (same form factor)" which at first I took to mean the Macintosh, but now that I am looking at some pictures of…

Speculation about an unannounced Apple product. Some things never change.

Thanks for the tip. Works perfect!

Here is my Mac 128k connected to retro-net.org using MacTerminal. It runs lynx to browse the web and I can get email using pine. Very nice free service from them. The lack of arr…

Here are a few final things: You can do file transfers back and forth from MacTerminal (I still use v 1.1) to Mac OS X with a few command line utilities (macutils) available on Ma…

it looks like it only has F keys and a numeric keypad. weird.

MacTerminal .......... The lack of arrow keys on my keyboard appears to be an issue though. Click to expand... Doesn't the keypad menu drop down to give you some?

What about a Localtalk-Ethernet adapter, like the Farallon Etherprint? Click to expand... On a 128K? No room for MacTCP.

Just as an aside, well... I was fuzing with this out of curiosity, and I never was able to make a USB serial adapter spawn a console out of /etc/ttys automatically. The oft-quoted …

Wonderful blast to the past. Sounds like a stealth recon mission. GOOD JOB!

Google gets it wrong. According to their 20 Year Usenet Timeline, the first post mentioning Macintosh and Lisa was made on August, 1982. In fact, the earliest post mentioning Maci…

There was a third party adapter to use Atari joysticks on an Apple II. Good luck finding one, though! At the time, Apple joysticks were as common and cheap as the Atari ones, so th…

Of course, option 3 is to yank the analog stick from the PS1 and just wire it straight into a custom controller. Soldering iron would be your friend there.
