NIB type stuff, or used?

For machines find the local recyclers and become friendly with them. Learn the scrap rates and give them 50% more and you can pretty much have anything there. My collection has gro…

Any ideas on the spontaneous bootup and the lack of "influence" via the ADB? Could the power supply also have issues? I do have a spare but it is about the exact age as the other…

(I thought I had posted this, but apparently not.) Went to the big main Goodwill in Portland today. A school has donated a huge bunch of elementary-age old software. I saw many Wor…

I install the CD Sunrise driver today with System 6.0.8 and when I stuck a CD in the drive I get a error of some sort (I can't remember right now). What else could I try? Thanks,…

JDW is quite correct -- poor focus is not caused by a logic board problem (except, perhaps, indirectly by loading the power supply; that possibility is quickly checked by simply me…

I am still saddened that the Macintosh Hacker's Bible doesn't exist. But since Mr. Clapp made time to post here about it, perhaps he would take a trip back to memory lane and writ…

Yes, that will do. Either way will work. To make it simple, put in the floppy before you turn on the computer. 1. Put Disk Tools floppy in computer 2. Turn on computer 3. Let …

@Unknown_K Where exactly do you live in Ohio and do you know of any places to get old Macs (GoodWill, etc...)? Click to expand... For old software I look at thrift stores, Go…

most 10 year old game systems are 2 generations old, leaving them with (at best) small meg's of memory, and 10's of megahertz This rule does need to be revised, under the current r…

@Unknown_K Where exactly do you live in Ohio and do you know of any places to get old Macs (GoodWill, etc...)? @Mike Richardson Nice find :O

How Strange!

The guy gave me some pics of the internals. http://5249161678509350185-a-1802744773732722657-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/aquaregia27/home/portable_scsi.JPG?attachauth=ANoY7cones…

The rule regarding games/pdas is the result of sheer laziness and ignorance on my part... there just isn't a convenient cut-off as there is with computers. If anyone has any ideas …

Oh, the WGS is the 'hub' of my new testbench. I have an AAUI-to-10BaseT adapter that has a built-in 3 port hub connected (so I don't need a dedicated hub on the testbench,) and ha…

Thanks freak. Hmm, only version 1.0? Well I'm going to assume that they just never updated it.

No, nobody can see that card. I guess I did not install it correctly. Will try again.

Haven't noticed anything like that with my two 7300s. They see regular use, however (one is always running and the other is used a lot), so I don't know if that has anything to do …

OK, I got my performa6360 updated to 8.1. So now it has OS 8.1 and 9.1 on the same hard drive which upsets Norton when I run it to optimize/degrag etc. I need both systems becaus…

Does the card, and any attached device, at least show up in Apple System Profile or Norton's hardware rundown? Click to expand... Never thought about that , I will check in…

That's one I've never heard of before

put in the Disk Tools disk a bit after. Click to expand... When the flashing ? comes up.
