It has to do with a bad install disc. Thankfully I use only backups so I don't scratch my originals. Click to expand... Thats a very good idea, I have a 9.0 disc here that I go…

This QC10 on ebay appears to be an upgraded, retorfit floppy disk model. Anybody know if Quark sold them this way? with all the holes in the box it sure seems like a home-brew job…

Without major hacking at the cables (if its even possible), its impossible - the cables are completely different.

They are subjectively (I didn't measure, just put the books next to each other) the same width, and without the function keys, approximately the same height. Anyone have a clue on…

OMG! OMG! OMG! That game is sooooooooooo cuttee!! I am so downloading it.

This makes me wonder if you've been following the discussion on CSA2 about the lores Apple logo. Click to expand... Why yes, this is the logo I did in response to limtc's posts…

Here's a disk image containing my rendering of the multicoloured Apple logo in Lo Res graphics mode. It looks okay on an emulator, but the cheap antialiasing really pays off on a r…

Choose an iMac with USB, and then get any of many USB/serial adapters. Keyspan springs readily to mind, and they have been at it since at least 1998. The adapters fetch up to USD…

I'm thinking of getting an older iMac, so I can retire my aging 9500.. I like using my laserwriter 16/600...and stylewriter 2400... but you can't use 'em offhand with the imac...…

Fiber optics with small nicks in the run works pretty well, having everything lead back to a single LED. There was an iBook one done this way that did, as you mention, tie into the…

There is a hack somewhere on macmod.com. It's for a tiBook I think but it should work for yours too. I think he used Fiber Optic.

I found a seller in the US who has lithium cells with built in protection circuits. I think 18650 and 4/3A are the same - I remember I found him while looking for cells from my ow…
