Ahh yes, speed, I forgot.
Well - yes and no. It's faster then the stock Apple 40 meg, but no more than the IBM 9gig. I suppose the SCSI bus is hindered by age, and by a dog-slow s…
Hi all.
Just wanted to share my experiences on SSD's (Solid State Drives) and my SE/30.
My SE/30's stock Apple drive was getting *very* noisy indeed, and a replacement 9gig IBM d…
Just to harp back onto the Amiga for a sec, MorphOS now officially supports the G4 Mac Mini. You can download a trial version of the OS from here. And here's instructions on how to…

Since you're running System 7 there is an easy way to see if an extension or control panel (sometimes referred to as INITs and cdevs by old-timers) is causing a conflict. Start up …

I'm impatient so I burned at 8x which is the fastest my burner does (and my media is rated at). It all worked out, and I've got 10.4.11 running on my Mini now. The last image I got…

Also keep in mind that II-series power supplies die very gradually. If you keep plugging and unplugging the power cord and mashing on both the keyboard and back panel power buttons…

I had to read that a second time. I thought you had missed the '475' on the end of LC. I did not know they even made that upgrade. I wish we had that back when our family had an…

That is worth it for the upgrades alone.
Would you be interested in organizing a deal for the Transwarp since we live …
The II, IIx, and IIfx should all be able to take the same power supply. One test to see if the power supply is working or if it is a problem with the batteries or caps or whatnot …
2k, starting tomorrow I will be working with some old school 64k ram and the arduino on a non related project, to see how easy/bad it is
If the mac is generating the pwm on the ea…
It's an interesting suggestion. My PB160 has a fairly poor greyscale display (which improves dramatically when set to display Black & White only), and I had a 145b that I h…

It actually turns out that my boot media is all junk. I decided to pop the Debian Linux boot cd I used two years ago and it went right into the boot menu. I've got new media coming…

The PWM signal is well documented in Inside Macintosh and Apple Macintosh Family Hardware Reference. A PAL reads the disk-speed buffer in RAM and generates a PWM. However, the 800K…
