I just remembered that it is possible to overclock these older Sonnet cpu ugrades using a utility called Sonnet Clocker. See http://www.zone6400.com/Sonnet_Clocker.html for more in…

As the owner of a retired 6100 running a NewerTech 330mhz G3 with a Power Computing HPV card, you will definitely notice a big jump in speed. In the 6100, the HPV card does connect…

Not so - it works okay for me. I think the issue is that it's being hosted locally somewhere around here, running an HTTP server off a Newton. I can imagine this would be a little …

Your link is broken, beachycove.

No adapter is needed for the 61xx - only for the 7100 and 8100. And yes, you will see a big difference in speed.

I wish they had made one with beefier specs for upgrading... Click to expand... They did, it was called the Colour Classic II and was released in Asia and Canada as far as I kn…

I am thinking of buying a sonnet g3 500 Mhz and a 8100 HPV card for my mac performa 6116. Do i need any adapters for the connection? Will i see a big difference at the speed?

This should interest you, and might provide a lead on a local working unit if you ask nicely.

You want a 2100 if you actually want to go on the web with it, as the lower RAM of the 2000 limits its usefulness there by way of serving up constant out of memory errors. The two …

The problem with the 2300c running on battery may not be the Duo, but the battery. Type 3 batteries (I don't know about the BTI type 4) are notorious for draining down to the point…

The CF-IDE adapter was the cheapest Chinese one I could find on eBay and the CF card was a good brand but nothing special. Worked first time and without a hitch since.

I haven't been able to check the lone parts LC that I have; sorry. But maybe the motherboard caps leaked while it was in the box. It's certainly possible, given the age of the …

LUCKY! :O :O The Goodwill here has few computer-related things most of the time, but there was one time where I went there, and they had probably 20-30 computers in total. Onl…

I always thought it would be interesting to have a Blue Dalmation or FlowerPower iMac. I have not seen one in person but I would pick it up if I saw it. On the same topic. I pic…

I always wanted a jewel tone iMac, ruby or sage. But I got a graphite much like that one because when it was time to buy it my other choices were (ew) blue dalmatian and (ick) flow…

I love the speakers in those very much, it's just a shame that at lowest volume, I can't use them at night when I had one of those. Man, now I want a G3 iMac again....

Good lord, I hadn't even thought about that. I'm having a hell of a time getting my Duo to recognize larger drives (by which I mean a 2GB and a 6GB that should be ATA-3 and ATA-5 r…

I have absolutely no reason to want a Newton. I have a Nokia N800, I have a Palm Zire 72, I have a BlackBerry for a phone, and all kinds of other gadgets and gizmos that have been …

Some random thoughts from a Duo fan: 1. A 2300c should be able to run 8.1 well enough, though Dan Palka over on system7today swears by 7.6.1 on these machines. 2. For various rea…

Sound and an external Graphics Output System, TTL or CGA, would make a world of sense Click to expand... Why sound though? If it were specifically for an external graphics disp…

Thanks for the info. Two of the sticks I got are 64MB, 5v, FPM, 60ns, as far as I can tell. After installing those two, in A4/B4 slots, the 9600 gets most of the way through the …

You'll be delighted with the 2300c, I'm sure. It's quite a capable little machine - or at least, mine would be if it wasn't riddled with issues. Feel free to shoot me a PM if you h…

It is located in the same province and that saves a lot of money in shipping. I do plan to use both as a system. The only other duo I own is a 230 but the passive screen is prett…

Cool - thank you. It's good to have a link like that which people can find easily. I'd also like to remind people here that NetBSD for m68040s with no FPU (no matter which mask) c…

I had a thought about this in the shower yesterday! My buddies at Tekserve got their start in Macs by building the (Mac controlled) Directory Systems for the Rockefeller Center (y…
