DVD in a Quadra? — #6

hell even early G3s have trouble decoding DVDs. Click to expand... Add a Wired4DVD card and even a PPC601 or PPC604 can play DVDs well. It's a PCI card though, so no help for…

And Daystar 68060 Accelerators... — #14

I can't comment on the '060 (though I do like ColdFires), but remember that there were *three* people in the AIM alliance, not just Apple and Motorola. That big blue gorilla was co…

Daystar XCI Bus -- Ever Released — #8

Yeah, the guy running Daystar Technology (Brian, I think?) is a swell guy. He's kept some excellent hardware on the market and brought some new stuff out that I never expected to …

Mac Classic Acting 'funny' — #10

I didn't mean to confuse the issue. Yes, this thread is about an ADB or ADB II mouse. The smaller switch you linked to is the correct switch for that mouse. I was asking about …

Mac Classic Acting 'funny' — #9

Yes, the original pre-ADB mice have a larger microswitch (thus the awesome loud deep click) but I was under the impression that this thread was about an ADB mouse, or ADB mouse II,…

DVD in a Quadra? — #5

Quadraman's already conquered (conquested?) a SCSI DVD-RAM. He's asking how to use it with a Quadra. Now I may be entirely wrong about this, but my impression was that if you for…

Free: Original 128K upgraded to 512K — #3

Well, I just picked it up this morning... took it into work... opened the nice carrying case... and the back says 512k. Sigh. I'll have to open it up and take a peek at the guts, b…

Daystar XCI Bus -- Ever Released — #7

Well if I'm correct, the Daystar Technology of today is a very different company to the Daystar Digital of the 80's and 90's. I'd be surprised if anyone currently at Daystar Techno…

DVD in a Quadra? — #2

Running OS 8.1, with the Apple CD/DVD Driver, a DVD-ROM drive certainly can be used for data storage. Obviously, on a machine so old, you can forget about watching DVD-Video discs,…

And Daystar 68060 Accelerators... — #13

The point about the comparison between the m68060 and the Pentium is that the m68060 would've scaled quite well had Motorola had reason to continue improving it (that is, if Apple …

Assembling the Fastest OS 9 Machine — #52

Interesting that the Shading numbers vary that much from run to run. I'll run it a few more times when I get a spare moment.

Only the SE and SE/30 cases have flat front bezels. All the rest are curved left to right.

And Daystar 68060 Accelerators... — #11

Remember, the m68060 was able to execute more average instructions per clock than the Pentium in spite of having a 32 bit bus as compared with the Pentium's 64 bit bus and in gener…

I'm surprised that it is a VGA monitor (and by "VGA" I don't mean simply its resolution, I mean the VGA interface as well). The car-TV monitors I've run into have composite or S-vi…
