equill: I will avoid said dark alleys I'm surprised though you've not been able to find the cache cards - seemingly a leisurely trip in local hard rubbish would reveal a slew o…

What I did with the AP was to post it on ebay... Some one bought it for 30.00 bux... so in actuality I paid 195.00 for the G5...

I think you got a good deal on the machine. I'd pay $225 for the machine. Although I would more than likely offer only $200 as I wouldn't need the AP card since the only things in…

Do you know what shadows lurk in the hearts of men? You've been tagged by Equill. You are going down.

Thank you for the links. I had seen the Miniscribe 8425 photos some time ago, but that drive doesn't look like the drive used in my Hyperdrive Mac. Note how flat the top casing i…

... It also came with a Workgroup Server 95 card which apparently doesn't work (hope not), but the cache slots are all filled (512K?). No idea on RAM, HD or WGS95 status yet until …

I have a Supermac STD-979o (Sony GDM-1950) that is listed as a 19" monitor (I think it is 21" with 19 viewable) and the only place I could put it without it crushing something was …

Uh, wow! I got an SE dual floppy 2 weeks ago - also my first compact! 8-o

an early 21" monitor with its matching Nubus card, Click to expand... Altho thats a cool score, ouch ... I snagged a early 21" hp monitor (with bnc's on the back) and the thing…

A smaller fan makes a Q950 a much better neighbour. As long as you don't stuff it full of Nubus cards and drives, it works fine with a smaller fan and without the wind tunnel produ…

The velco strips could have been for one of those screens that keep people from seeing what you are typing (or for a paper holder that mounts on the side of the case). Click to …

OOPS! :I MY bad!

$225 is the cheapest I've heard of for a G5. Around here they go for $650 up (some guy was asking $2000 on Craigslist - good luck!). Except for the water coolers, they are built li…

you can log onto your Unix Mac via telnet and send / receive mail etc. Click to expand... No, telnet is spawned by inetd. We are talking purely serial, so you would be coming i…

Very good price. The velco strips could have been for one of those screens that keep people from seeing what you are typing (or for a paper holder that mounts on the side of the ca…

Why do you think the PDS card does not work? It is made for A/UX only and while it will boot in OS 7.01 (wont work but the machine will boot), newer mac OS versions tend to hang/cr…

I finally got my first compact Mac today, a SE Dual Floppy :lol: . It came in a SE box, to my surprise, though unfortunately it is a SE SuperDrive box not a regular SE box. T…

I am told that later in the week I am going to be given a (dead screen) Mac Plus, a matching external HD, a IIfx in a Mac II case, a wide carriage ImageWriter printer, an early 21"…

FidoNet worked as follows: User runs terminal software and dials his local FidoNet BBS system. Reads his messages, types new messages to other FidoNet subscribers and logs out. Lat…

If so, I'd be interested in how it could be done. More than likely, I have completely misunderstood what I read and simply need to be set straight. Click to expand... Choose a …

the down low is back when you used a terminal emulator to access unix (type) servers, and the whole experience was text based, altho that could be mouse and menu driven, anything b…

heat?

My Macintosh SE suddenly reset itself multiple times in a row while I was just typing in Note Pad.

Very nice! :O Sounds like a good score....I'd quite happily pay $56 for such a beast.
