you will need the cd rom drive for the hardware test. does anything come up on the screen when you turn it on?

10.4 should be perfectly usable on a 900 MHz iBook. I would probably disable both Spotlight and Dashboard, but even on slow laptop hard disks I know some who persevere with them st…

Mail is going rough for me right now. I am getting help from NTLK, and that has been great. I can't say enough good things about Ron Parker and Simon Bell. It does not like Yaho…

Join NTLK list As for advice, the Newton is great, but takes a LONG time and a lot of patience to learn and get working properly. Once we have a proper knowledgebase site working…

Hi, Okay, l added the string variables, and it works perfectly! I guess I just made a few errors beforehand... Just one more question, though...those two buttons labeled 'keyboa…

On the original ][ and ][+ keyboard input was all upper case on a stock configuration. The IIe and IIC, however, have a working shift key.

All of the characters look like this: ட (that may or may not work correctly on the forum)

Not having an Apple IIc handy but wanting the experience I went to http://www.calormen.com/Applesoft/index.htm and tried out the Applesoft Basic simulator that runs in Javascript. …

Looks fine here too – and I can't remember installing any extra languages when I installed OS X.

@nlp: I already know SoftPC (also the (AFAIK latest) Version: SoftPC 3.1 professional), I tested and compared it carefully to SoftWindows-1-68k a while ago. SoftWindows is definit…

Can you post what your squiggly boxes look like. I'm not fluent in Tamil, but when I clicked your link in Safari 3.2.1, I got the following. { "lightbox_close": "Close", …

Thankyou for your responses. If it's not booting without a chime (assuming speakers etc are working), it indicates it's failing its startup RAM test. I've a Powerbook 12" 8…

DIM A$(1), B$(1), C$(1) or even simpler DIM A$, B$, C$ Click to expand... Neither is necessary... the first will create arrays and the second AFAIK won't do anything. Simply c…

My prior post may go too far and create arrays of string variables, so also try the simpler DIM A$(1), B$(1), C$(1) or even simpler DIM A$, B$, C$ I saw somewhere that Applesoft …

Okay. Thanks wally! I'll try that. -Apostrophe

Just a guess...you may have to declare a$ first specifying a non zero maximum string length in bytes. Try Dim A$(64), B$(64), C$(255) at the start of the program and see if that…

Thanks David--as I told wally, I've already tried string variables, but maybe I didn't do it right, or missed a few keys, etc. When I turn the IIc on again tomorrow I'll try enter…

You need all string variables. Code: 10 home 20 input "What state do you live in?";a$ 30 if a$="Ohio" then goto 50 40 if a$<>"Ohio" then goto 10 50 input "Cor…

Thank you for the links. I can't believe I've gone this long without a Newton.

I've already tried that, actually. No results. -Apostrophe

Try using a$ where you were using a.
