My, that's pretty.

The closest "match" you'll be able to find is likely IBM's first LCD desktop display, the 9507, which was meant to go with their low power PS/2e desktop computer. (Which was basic…

I happened upon this thread and thought I would add my two cents. Hope this is useful and not a "me too" sort of deal. I have a IIci that I made out of two IIcis, and I was think…

How big is your print run? Are you taking advertising? Any interest in retail sales? I know a zine shop local to me that would probably stock an issue or two. Click to expand…

Interesting. Seems like that would make a number of things more feasible, eh trag? Click to expand... Yep. Affordable PCB prototypes makes a *lot* of projects more feasible.…

as a much more active member of hobby electronics than here I find trag's post a little bit too negative, 1 its not THAT bad and 2 no one said this had to be on par with dell's pro…

Actually we do qualify for it, but such a thing is too newfangled for my parents, plus I'd have to go on a contract, which I kind of can't do when I don't have a job, and don't kno…

I found a cheaper circuit board prototyping service which makes this project feasible. Here's the link: http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/fusion-pcb-2-layer-10cm10cm-max-10pcs-p-3…

ADSL isn't really available in a lot of places here in Australia, only in built up areas Click to expand... Just to clarify, 90% of Australians live in the larger cities, and p…

According to this: http://www.marketingvox.com/55-of-us-adults-have-home-broadband-but-10-use-only-dialup-039691/ in April '08 dialup in the USA was at ~10%. Given the preceding …

I dunno, in the states the average mans BS guess is 40% are still on dialup, and a quick google of dialup internet -zipcode will bring up a much wider array of providers than cable…

i put a PCI based logic board in there and it works fine. only the original logic board does it. even after capacitor replacement. dunno. oh well. I have another logic board of the…

I don't know what things are like in other countries, but here in Australia dialup is available anywhere in the country from quite a few different providers, including the main one…

Anyone have any idea how to use SLIP to connect an Apple II to a PC running Windows XP and get internet? It seems like a plausibly doable solutions, but some pointers would be help…

Using a period modem would be the least of your problems. Good luck trying to find a dial-up provider, much less know whether or not your modem will work with their service. Not on…

Yeah, back in November...it had to happen eventually. And hopefully soon I'll get a job and move out, so I can make the final move from 3G to ADSL.

Didn't you only recently move up from dialup anyway, LCGuy?
