If it's always on "I'm charging!" amber, then it sounds like something might be really wonky with the PMU. Do you have another TiBook that you can try the battery and/or power cord…

Some nubus cards will not work with recent system software, and some (say, the Rocket accelerators) will not work with a ppc processor. That's all I meant. I have a 2300c with CF,…

Actually I did some more reading and found that there arent any CPU upgrades that go straight into the Nubus slot (correct me if I'm wrong) but into the Cache/PDS slot of Nubus pow…

Maybe a sound or video card (in which case compatibility with version of MacOS and ppc becomes an issue), but nothing else.

I come to the conclusion that 7z decompression is only possible in OSX. LZMA is a open source algorithm so its not impossible to write a archiver even for system 6-9.

I had an instructor bring me a Powerbook G4 that won't power up. I tried resetting the PMU and taking the battery out, as well as re-seating the RAM. The charger light in the back…

Can I put a NuBus processor upgrade in my Dock II for use with my 2300c? Is that even possible?

Unarchiver doesn't support all the features of 7zips anyway, like passworded archives. Better than having to use command line 7z for everything, though.

Ah, my bad. There doesnt seem to be one. if the unix version doesnt need too man libraried you /might/ be able to make a sioux version. //wthww

Uh, What? Has no one here heard of the unarchiver? http://wakaba.c3.cx/s/apps/unarchiver.html //wthww Click to expand... Ah true...I had forgotten about that one. But I th…

It's open-source, so it could theoretically be gotten to build somehow on a classic Mac. Your best bet is probably to decompress on a modern Mac or PC and then transfer the decomp…

7zip = the devil's compression format of choice. I downloaded some file in 7zip a month or few ago, not knowing what it was, then was annoyed when I discovered I had no program on…

AFAIK, the 7-zip format (.7z) was only made available when the 7-Zip program in Windows was introduced. I doubt that there's anything available that supports that compression form…

Is there a 7-zip supporting compressor or decompressor for the classic OS available or needs it to be written first? I found p7zip and stuffit for OS X only. For interested peopl…

My two cents on this machine... I get a feeling John Sculley wanted to transition Apple into a one-computer company from the day he took over. When Jobs was ousted there were thre…

Apple did come out with the Apple III and that was not II compatible, the Mac was not realy compatible with the Lisa either (nor the II line). Click to expand... Not that is ma…

The Mark Twain was a last hurrah from the Apple II division to keep the II competitive. Apple stayed with Steve Jobs vision and saw the future in the Mac and didn't care about the …

The Apple II line could have kept going for a while if Apple wanted to support the IIgs at all. Apple did come out with the Apple III and that was not II compatible, the Mac was n…

Except that the Twain came long after the 128k. It is also quite possible that Apple wasn't in the least bit worried about the Twain competing with the Mac. The original IIgs mod…

Well I just threw in a 27GB WD on there and it worked without a hitch, even without jumpers! Thanks for the reassurance guys. I tried this before and it didn't work but I found ou…

try booting with only one three point five inch drive connected.

Yes. The Optical drive will be the master on that bus.

I have a feeling that if it was finished, the specs might have been on par with or even possibly exceeded the specs of the 128K. That could explain why it was canned.

Yea, a HD (even SCSI) makes GS/OS much nicer to run. I have a transwarp GS in one of my IIgs and that speeds things up quite a bit (that machine has the REV C SCSI card and an 8MB …
