    Macintosh NUBUS Ethernet card with video

    That is an Ethernet card with both RJ45 for 10BASE-T (twisted pair) and a DA15 for connecting an AUI transceiver, which was originally used for 10BASE5 (thick coax) but by this stage you could get transceivers for 10BASE2 (thin coax) and 10BASE-T (twisted pair) as well. The real giveaway is the...

    Processor Upgrade Card 630-2059

    Thanks @lolo799, now you point it out it makes sense, I hadn’t even looked at searching that code but it’s all right there in it.

    Processor Upgrade Card 630-2059

    In Japan I picked up a boxed Power Macintosh Processor Upgrade Card M5973J/A “PROC UPGR 180MHZ W/O FAN” the box was opened but but the antistatic bag at first glance. On returning home I’ve looked at the card itself and its part number seems to be 630-2059. A quick web search leads to eBay...

    Emulation: Binaries for Mini vMac 37 with LToUDP

    Thanks @eharmon, what a wonderful error message from Apple, now I’ll know what to look for. I suspect the quarantine extended attribute must have got lost when the file got moved onto the NAS to move to the other machine.

    Emulation: Binaries for Mini vMac 37 with LToUDP

    Apologies, I tried the Apple Silicon build on my wife's M1 Air running Ventura and it worked. Transferring that binary back to my M2 it worked as well. So it looks like something went awry with the extraction process on my end initially that resulted in a damaged binary. I also tried the intel...

    Emulation: Binaries for Mini vMac 37 with LToUDP

    The intel binary runs on my MacBook Air M2 under Rosetta to the point where it complains there is no ROM file (I have never run Mini vMac before so I don’t have all that setup). The Apple Silicon binary won’t run, an alert comes up saying it is damaged.

    Help identify a PB 1xx modem

    I reckon it’s a PowerPort/V.32 based on this Tidbits article. Sounds like it needs an external dongle that plugs into the Mini DIN 9.

    Help identify a PB 1xx modem

    Strange it has a mini DIN instead of an RJ11. I had a look on eBay and the ones on there looks different again than the OPs and the one from @demik

    Help identify a PB 1xx modem

    I’d say I t’s a Global Village PowerPort of some description. Based on the V.32 in that AT&T chip it’s probably a 9600bps, or possibly 14,400bps if it is V.32bis. In Global Village’s product range I think that corresponds to Bronze and Silver. I think 14.4k was the highest they went for PB1xx...

    Looking for a IDE 2.5 inch external case

    You can get cheap IDE to SATA adapters, obviously it’s not going to fit inside but it doesn’t sound like that is your aim. You could also look for the original Wiebetech drive docks, seems there are a few on eBay but they are not cheap. Otherwise I think you’re back to buying secondhand drives...
