I have often heard the claim that the Apple /// was intentionally crippled, usually for marketing reasons and always with the implication that it did not have to be done. But is t…
My G3, which I use as 2nd machine:
G3 233 DT, overclocked to 83MHz systembus and CPU@292MHz. Working extremely stable! 384MB Ram, 500GB Sata HD, ATI 7000 64MB.
I wonder if one of those cheap USB to audio things would work with OS9. My son's PC laptop needs that because the headphone port is toasted. It's USB on one end and headphone/micro…
Hi,
I'm culling my Mac haul again - just wanting to keep smaller, more used Macs. Two of the biggest Macs which perform and sound about the same - a 6500/300 and Black Director's…
I have found a clasic mac,

It has no os but i am going to stick on a scsi cdrom drive a sc…
Right now I am just waiting for someone to pick up my new scanner from the PO. The old AGFA SnapScan Touch is starting to get a little long in the tooth. Also, it's software will n…
Its probably a good thing nothing like that is anywhere near me, or my house would have more obsolete Macs than it already does. I'd have a hard time stopping myself from picking …

No, but I will obviously give it a whirl. Knowing little-to-nothing about overclocking, my question is whether it is the bus or the processor that needs to be "underclocked" again.…
This is a Great Topic and I'm very glad to see you spin it off from the "OS 9 Bubble" thread for doing some REAL TECHNICAL ANALYSIS! That's what this place is all about, serendipit…
The flyback transformer (FBT), also called a 'line output transformer' (LOPT), is a special transformer which is used to generate high voltage (HV) signals at a relatively high fre…
just look on kiji for a nother imac, just plop in the hard drive and done, no changing transformers, if you do somthing wrong you are DEAD
I just got a g4 and that replaced my g3…

192Mb of RAM at the moment I think

Been there, done that. I got a huge box of Wallstreet parts (and I do mean nothing but misc parts) over a year ago and built 5 units out of them (plus some ebay parts).
One thing I can report is that I once installed a logic board from broken up a 266MHz Wallstreet II into a nice little 12" machine (more vram & better graphics chip). I d…
I have a MolarMac which came to me overclocked (via installation of a B&W ZIF G3) to 400MHz on (as I recall) an 83MHz bus. It worked fine - in fact it ran like greased ligh…
Yup. My iBook came with 10.2.1 install disks only. OS9 was in a "classic" image on the first restore CD. That had 9.7.1 in it. Also, Netboot for OS9 has (iirc) 9.6.1.
9.8.1 is on …
This thread is created as a place to look at the real differences between these two revisions.
The hope is that this will be based on physical hardware at our disposal instead of …
I did this, over 5 years ago. I might have some old pictures somewhere, even. It was no professional job...I used electrical tape for traction and pencil eraser bits as spacers. …
Apparently no one has seen what I have crammed into an SE/30, which illustrates very clearly what is "possible":
Think "hand made bracket." The possibilities truly are endl…
