Posted this on FB, but not everybody's there so here..   Any software suggestions for imaging / reading Macintosh 3.5" disks (400k, 800k and 1.4Mb) more deeply than just using i.e. Diskcopy?    Have hundreds of disks to image/read and would like some more "bit-level" software to get it done.  ...

By Brandon Bogle and Brian Picchi! Great idea for an game! I just dropped to the floor when i saw this :D Download the diskimage from: http://tanrunomad.com/official-games/ (or support the developers and buy the zip-bagged disk with manual!) and youtube video at : I am so happy there's...

Picked an another book, an ex library book, for few euros, Business in Action: APPLE - macintosh - the computer that changed everything Printed 1997 by William Gould, in English, 98 pages about the history of Apple and the products.

Got the cable yesterday and tested it. It worked great, very very slight ghosting but really, it's berely notiseable. I am veeeery happy! It's been a quite task to get the IIgs running: - 115 -> 230V PSU conversion / rebuilt - Memory expansion card soldering/repair to work with 4MB -...

With Nishida Radio's analog rgb-component-adapter, IIGS outputs fairly decent picture to Samsung TV/display using, i had only composite, cables. Have not yet tried to trim the color's or used better component cable.

For those users, who might have an Apple //e PAL machine, just an note that if you're having trouble with colour output, take a look of the motherboard. There's an dip switch in the middle-right end of the board (see picture) where you can choose OSC1<->OSC2 oscillator. I had very...

What CRT or LCD monitor, if not Apple original, you are using with your IIgs? I am looking into possibility running mine with Samsung 17" LCD TV model with Scart-connector (analog rgb). Found one Samsung Syncmaster 741MP 17" LCD TV wich is still 4:3 and has all the connectors expect hdmi of...

Bought an OSX 10.1 Puma in retail box for 10€, even per say, i'm not collector of original software but i am sucker for good-old-boxed software boxes if the price is right. Now i kind of need other OSX versions boxed too. Only have actually, if my memory serves me right, 10.3, 10.4 (server?)...

What expansion card is that on Macintosh SE ? Looks like DIN connector to me.
