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.

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 ).

For me, it's about expanding the functionality of a 128K (and bragging rights)......it's a fun idea that's beyond my skill set.

Here's a vt100 terminal emulator that supposedly runs on a 128k Mac.

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…
While the amount of PC related stuff is annoying, instead of creating a lounge thread for each one, perhaps a sticky thread for the whole she-bang and we can get back to talking ab…
The //e doesn't have an MMU. There are just soft switches, addresses in the $C03x range you hit to switch banks of RAM. Works the same as the Language Card on the Apple][.

Anyone heard of LUnix? Unix on a C64 - page seems a bit old though. And uCLinux ideas might be helpful about getting around lack of MMU.
EDIT: Doh...didn't remember that LUnix ha…

Of late I have noticed that the Lounge is full of Non-Mac Conquests. Now its great to hear what people has been able to find/salvage but should we not have all that in a separate …
What if it was just Conquests, and sub-forums with "Apple" and "Non-Apple"?
It is a bit bothersome. I like to read the conquests, but Not every single one like "new Amiga" and the…

At a minimum, the pinouts have to be remapped. The first 20 pins of the Disk II & Disk III seem to be identical in function, suggesting that the 6 remaining Disk III pins a…
I am pretty sure that the Disk ][ connects to a set of pins on the back of the ///.The blue port all the way on the left is where it would go.
