Well, i dug out my old miniscribe drive which i was able to hook in place of the CDrom and to start up the machine. i fixed the system folder on the internal drive which caused it…

True that!

The hot coin is the only method I could do right now due to lack of tools. But I just don't think it would be the safest as you would be applying a huge amount of heat immediately …

Nice little trio you got there. Not having owned a IIfx, I think that might be the best machine. Sure the 7600 is more powerful but the IIfx holds a special place in a lot our mem…

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…

Apple used to brag at the time that the /// was a 16-bit machine because there was a state machine appended to the 6502 to handle 16-bit words and the data buss fetched 16 bits at …

If you really want, I can send over copies of System 6.0.4/6.0.8/7.1/7.5 boot disks to you. You only really need a bootable system disk with the Apple CD-ROM driver.

In fact I have a perfectly functional serial MacBottom for use with a 128K, but cannot find a copy of the driver software anywhere. Click to expand... I'll look see what I've g…
