I do know AppleWorks does pay attention to that switch. You could conceivably use the switch for other things, as it just flags a certain address in memory. I doesn't actually do a…

It does look cool, but I wonder whether Nintendo won't shut them down, what with it using the Nintendo architecture and all.

This thing is known in other circles as a "NOAC" device, which stands for Nintendo on a Chip. It's also known as an FC Computer, or FamiClone since it's a clone of the Nintendo Fam…

Just tried it. Screwed around with the drive configuration and got the same results as before. I wonder if I should partition the whole 80gb drive into 7.5gb partitions and see wha…

try making is something like 7.5GB. that's probably the problem.

I bought a similar system when I worked in China. The key selling point was indeed that it came with a bunch of pirated software - one cartridge was advertised as containing 50,000…

I'm buying one - will tell you all how it turns out.

Now that looks like it would be fun to play with!

I've heard that systems like that are available all over the developing world, particularly in Africa and the poorer parts of India. I'm guessing that the main apeal of these mach…

It's not my recording, but discovering and listening to the online clip the other day finally inspired me (after some 12 years as a Newton user!) to install the macintal.pkg, talkt…

Don't forget ADB came out for the IIgs before it did for the mac.

Thanks, for some reason I thought the only way to get SCSI in an apple IIx computer was to build one or to get one built. I'd love to get one for my IIGS So I can use my HD20SC wit…

I've got speech enabled on mine too. Its kinda fun to have it read stuff. It will also speak the temperature.

Didn't the Quad G5's have the max RAM of 16GB? Click to expand... You're right. All the older ones topped out at 4 or 8Gb.

I'm curious why it shows in the manual what looks like a HD20SC attached when there was no scsi port on the IIGS. Click to expand... Apple sold the SC20 about that time. A 20m…

Yes, I've printed from my IIgs to my Apple Personal Laserwriter NTR. In the IIgs control panel, there's an option to install an ImageWriter emulator in the RAM of the LaserWriter. …

Can a IIgs use an Apple laser by chance? I never bothered to try it. Click to expand... A few people I knew used Apple laser printers. I don't recall which ones though. I used…

yeah, I tried the HD 20, no dice. It just sat there. I booted off the GS/OS system floppy, and ran the advanced disk utility on the system tools 1 disk. It did not even pick it up,…

I have an Apple Rev C SCSI card in one of my IIgs systems and it is fast enough for GS/0S use. What I like about it is if I feel like just booting from a floppy to play a game I do…

you cant use a hd2o. but there was a software startup init that was used for 512k macs to use hfs 800k floppies and hd20s if u could write it for gsos then maybe u could use it. ha…

I'm curious why it shows in the manual what looks like a HD20SC attached when there was no scsi port on the IIGS. Click to expand... Because you could buy a SCSI card from Appl…

It's cropped up a few times on the Apple Discussions from time to time.

Get off all your important data now, and chuck it. You can map out bad sectors but more will come, and within a short time everything will be inaccessible. JB
