Stalling at the same place every time at boot up = (in my experience) a dodgy CD or optica…

If it has a Ethernet card, you could run some server programs on it. I made a LC III into a LAN Mail and DNS server. (Both programs were made by Apple.) You could also make it a…
I have no idea. It originally shipped with *shudders* 16 MB of RAM, but I don't know if the previous owner upgraded it or not. I'd really prefer to run System 7 or OS 8 if possible…

I have started work on a project to emulate the floppy drive used in the original Macintosh.
My goal is a device which is plug compatible with the Apple external 400KB floppy driv…
I just scored 7 brand new Farallon PhoneNet adapters for 50 cents each. If I can manage to scrounge up a couple more vintage Macs, I'm gonna host a LAN party with some friends and…

A while back, I determined that the installation issues with my PM 5500/250 I had were due to dried CPU grease. I'm stuck on how to take out the heatsink and fan assembly though. A…
Go figure. I'd have more success eating cashews through a straw than attempting that, especially considering I have very few resources to throw at it.
I'll have to think about thi…
Anyone know if this capacitor will work to fix my barreled video problem? It currently has about a 2" black border, I wanted to stretch it out more. Looks a little weird.
