Who wanted a 68881? — #6

Thanks JRL. I managed to find the message he sent me (finally) and turns out it was the 68851 PMMU he was after, not the 68881 FPU

Getting my LC III on the internet! — #13

Try turning off images, java and animations. Should be much faster then. Click to expand... Otherwise, you'd need probably a 600MHz for "real" web browsing.

OS X 10.2.9?? — #6

I think it's just a typo. I'm guessing the author meant to write "mid-2004" but accidentally wrote "mid-2009" because he was thinking about "10.2.9" from earlier in the sentence.

Yeah, I ran ubuntu desktop as well as debian etch or lenny (or both?) on my A21m and it was perfect, nothing needed any special setup. Both of those keyboards and the A21m are nice…

Web browser for OS X 10.2.8 — #6

Opera runs on Jaguar. Version 9 (the current version) runs, but it unsupported; so may be buggy. Opera 8 (download link) runs perfectly on Jaguar.

If you're comfortable opening the iPod, check the Firewire connector to see if it has broken solder joints. I seem to recall that was an issue with those older models. I havent re…

OS X 10.2.9?? — #4

Yeah, that strikes me as very un-Apple-like. Since OS X first came out, they have only ever released ONE update after the next major release came out (10.4.11,) and that was less …
