    can't get 16 colors mode in my B&W G3

    I think I've been able to switch the 1st/2nd gen iMacs in my school to as low as Black and White. Those were G3s. 8-) I seem to remember there was a muppet game for all the school computers that needed 16 colors to run and would run perfectly on the G3 iMacs without any special modifications...

    old games in OS X

    This is probably slightly unrelated to the subject, but The Neverhood has been in dire need of a Mac port. Anyone willing to give it a go? :D

    old games in OS X

    Actually, I think Space War is a bit older than that. Pong WAS the first popular videogame, though. :D

    Cinepak vs. Motion-JPEG

    What was the screen resolution and sound quality for the converted file?

    Cinepak vs. Motion-JPEG

    It never did. I gave up trying to convert to Cinepak from the LC, so I tried to make a 16 color and a 256 color uncompressed file. Both attempts to convert the file ended up in the computer crashing, so I just used a Windows box at the library to do the conversion and then made the resulting...

    Cinepak vs. Motion-JPEG

    Excuse me, I believe it was an MPEG-1 video. :D

    MP4/MPEG to MOV converters that can handle any color depth

    So let me get this straight. You're saying Motion jpeg is as small if not smaller than Cinepak, compresses twice as fast and still has better quality video? Dang, why didn't people choose this over Cinepak? Well, maybe It's because of the decode requirements. Did you say they were higher than...

    MP4/MPEG to MOV converters that can handle any color depth

    Instead of converting the MPEG I intended to convert, I decided to convert a video of Bubsy 3D (That one on Youtube with that guy achieving an amazing 24 second record for level 1) to MPEG, take it over to the LC and then convert it to Cinepak. Unfortunately, I couldn't extract the sound using...

    And its go for Launch

    Dang! So it's too late to enter? I just figured out what I was going to do! Perform all of my web browsing and game creation functions on a PSP to show people that using a dedicated system for everyday tasks can be just as fun and useful as using a fully expandable system for the same tasks. The...

    MP4/MPEG to MOV converters that can handle any color depth

    I just got a Wrath of Cortex intro from the web that I would like to run on my LC. It's in MPEG format and I would like to convert it to a Cinepak compressed 4 bit color format to reduce the memory footprint. I also plan to convert a few Mac ads to use as startup movies for both of my 68k based...

    Looking for older versions of Debian

    Do they still even MAKE Debian for 68k? :?: :-/

    G4!

    I got my G4/500Mhz (I think it's a Graphite, I'm not sure.) from a friend. Came with OS 9 and a relative assload of shareware discs and other software, as well as a DVD-Rom drive. :D Now I'm pimpin' with Ubuntu on my 40GB. 8-) I'll move to Fluxbuntu when it becomes available.

    Influence of the Pizza Box design

    So did Nintendo. A design that was something like the one in the link was later released for the American market.
