One more thought: I know sometimes we can be a little terse but +1 on the idea of not crossposting internally to the 68kMLA forum. Unlike, say, Reddit where the folks in r/MacLC and r/8bitApples (or whatever) might never overlap, the whole 68kMLA forum is fairly integrated and even though not...

Hello, Welcome in! We love making new friends and nobody here's trying to troll anyone! While it's not explicitly against rules by way of habit we don't normally share links per-item to external content here, probably because, as below, most of us already know the surface level stuff that gets...

Activated another batch of users through to 2025-04-10.

cleared the spam queue and approved all newly registered members from 2025-03-12 to 2025-04-06.

With apologies for longposting and to an extent, repeating a couple things: 100%. I very much understand why LEM wrote what they wrote, because at the time it was about maximizing then-modern functionality per dollar of spend, and, hands down, if you're at Computer Renaissance in 1997 and a...

+1, the 5200 is a fine overall machine, especially if you feel you can clean/disinfect and do any needed maintenance without too badly compromising the remaining structure. The plastics are for sure the worst thing about this machine, today. Low End Mac was both "extremely factually incorrect"...

Cleared the spam queue and approved all newly registered members (since 2025-01-15).

For comparison, an Intel i5-2300 and i5-4570 both bench about as fast as a G3@300 in integer performance, and about half that in floating point performance. It's overall very stable and for most baseline functions, works well. If there's been an ARM native build of QEMU-PPC (or whatever...

The forum is still unable to send email, but I have just cleared the spam sign-up queue and, if I did everything correctly, allow newly registered users (since ~October) to sign in.

Idly,what CPU SKU is everyone using for these? A thing that was true on the Mac Pro 5,1 and IME tends to remain true of the absolute tiptop SKU on any given platform is that it costs "arguably a lot" - is there some second-best or third-best people are looking at to still beat out the 2018 mini...

I alluded to this the other day in another thread but modern CPUs all have neural processing units, and graphical execution units that support the newest video codecs. Right now, most software can either avoid the neural processing units, or outright doesn't use them except for first-party...
