There were no PowerBooks made that had both ADB and USB from the factory (the only Mac that can claim that honour is the Blue and White G3). However, you can add a USB CardBus card…

. . . were any ever made? . . . or were USB cards made for a PB with ADB already on it? I'll admit to getting lazier w/age, but I topped out on the 1400c & don't ha…

From what I can gather, the server's up, but there's nothing on it. *crosses his fingers that Mac Hut comes back online sometime within my last 48 hours of access to high speed…

er... i get: Safari can’t open the page. Safari can’t open the page “http://www.valleyofthelights.com/jcoventry/machut” because the server where this page is located isn’t respon…

Just to let everyone know, the server is back up and its now hosted on OS X instead of Vista. Click to expand... It was hosted on Vista?! You've got a lot of nerve. >

The VST drivers are simply rebadged Iomega drivers which are loaded. Restarting into my 8.6 partition, see what that does.

Dumb question I know, but you have installed the Zip drivers, right? Also, I've never dealt with one of those VST drives before - do they need special drivers, or do they use the n…

As per title, grabbed myself a sweet, brand new in box, never opened ZIP drive for my 3400c but it don't seem to work. When I insert a disk it grunts 3 times and then just sits the…

Sorry, my mistake, it's a MessagePad 120.

I've got another question, this time about CF cards as HDs. I've been reading about wear-leveling and the speculation by some that with daily use the card would be toast after a fe…

Excellent. Thanks for the information, beachycove. It looks like I'll have a fun project next weekend.

... how did you install the OS onto the CF card in your 2300c? I am away from its DuoDock II and have no external CD drive, so I was thinking I would put it into a PCMCIA adapter a…

Thank you all for your replies. Part of my challenge for the 3400 is to keep the drive small since I like System 7 and it doesn't like large drives (unless they're partitioned), bu…

IIRC, that was a problem with specific drives in the 30-40 GB (that size only because that was current in '03/'04) range for the 2400c, 3400c, Kanga, and Wallstreets. OWC had a pa…

If you can afford an active matrix display, get one. Even compared to recent displays the 1400c is quite nice and usable.

Just opened my Powerbook 1400 cs/166 which admittedly has been sitting idle for a while to find my LCD totally splintered not a happy bunny ... I have found various sites selling …

I certainly could not get an ATA-6 drive to work in a 2400c recently, and had to downgrade to an older drive that I had to do some hunting to find (as it needed to be quiet). The 2…

I know these Duos are IDE and SCSI- would that cause an issue for this mod? Click to expand... In it's stock config, the 2300c uses an IDE hard disk - I've put a 10GB in mine. …

The 3400 should theoretically be able to use any HDD under 120GB. It should even be able to use HDDs over 120GB, just that it'll only recognise the first 128GB.

I come bearing hard drive questions. I need to put a new HD in my 3400c, but I recall hearing once that some ATA-6 drives don't work with that series, does anyone have more data on…

I'm impressed. Especially on how nice the external case looks. I actually salvaged all the Indigo Blue parts from my old 350Mhz, and I'm thinking about polishing them up a bit. Som…

Well, the browser is a damned handy thing... with serious limitations. It's not really much good for modern web content, but it is a great way to download files to your Apple II. Y…

I don't think not programming for Contiki disqualifies you from commenting on its use. Anything about the (user perspective!) differences between 1.x and 2.x, using the UI or …

Unfortunately I don't have much to contribute... I haven't done any programming for Contiki. As far as using it goes, I'm running the 2.x version on the web server and I use 1.3 fo…
