All of the patents on the original NES have expired, worldwide. It is now 100% legal to clone an NES. The *ROMs*, however, still fall under copyright. But making a piece of hard…

I've never really liked the 6502, it's like an 8 bit CPU going out of it's way to limit everything to 8 bits. Click to expand... From my perspective (ie: a dabbler, not a progr…

What I did when I had this problem is take the hard drive out, put it into a tiger capable mac, then install tiger on that first partition, before the user setup process, just tak…

I did the same install on a beige G3 some back and had a couple of problems. I had to format a partition not at but slightly under 8 gb and it had to be the first partition on the …
