Saying that a G3/500 would be faster than a G4/400 in non-Altivec apps isn't as straightforward a statement as it seems. The G4 introuduced some new efficiencies to the core that m…

Yes, I received one. Click to expand... That's the thing, I never got one...

As Raskin put it, there really isn't any real difference anymore between Apple's OS and that of its competitors. Yes, I am sure that it is all ever-so powerful, and as OSes go, it …

I don't recall what the differences between 3.0 and QuickBASIC are, though I believe that QB is newer. QB is the one which I used on my SE/30 back in the day. 3.0 has separate vers…

Microsoft BASIC can control serial ports. Have a look at my site. Check the Mac BASIC category in the Downloads. Click to expand... There were several BASIC files there, there …

I'll take it if you can't fix it. I have two of them with bad LCD screens here.

Can't you also put a 5200/6200 motherboard in those?

It's a pity I didn't find this thread sooner. I dumped a bunch of Zip drives recently both SCSI and parallel models. I have an intense dislike for Zip drives and strip them out of …

If you didn't live on the other end of the country and they weren't so heavy (read high shipping cost) I'd take them if only for the cases. I have a few Quadra 650/700 motherboards…

I just got these off of eBay. Next time I go to the Apple Store, I'm wearing at least one of them { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightb…

I'm pretty sure FutureBASIC 2 can access the serial ports. It's free, so no harm trying it out. Click to expand... I have looked on Future Basic's website and I don't see a Fut…

I believe the original development system for the Mac was in Pascal, but the very first may have been 68000 assembly language. Click to expand... So the original 68k Macs were …

RS-422 is basically just higher-speed RS-232. It can be programmed just like RS-232 for basic serial communication. The two big differences are in speed, and speed control. A 165…

As that webpage said, the only logic boards that will run in a Colour Classic without modification are the LC/Performa 520, LC/Performa 550/Colour Classic II, and LC/Performa 575 l…

My SE/30's stock Apple drive was getting *very* noisy indeed, and a replacement 9gig IBM didn't improve things at all. /Anders Click to expand... Just FYI - One of the quiete…

Don't try to pry one side out completely before the others. You'll bend some pins. You need to work around the CPU and try to pry all sides up a little at a time until it comes loo…

Hello all, I am interested in the older 68k Macs and I am looking into getting either an SE/30 or Classic II machine. One of the main things I would like to do with the Mac is to…
