    Building an internal grayscale card for the SE/30

    I hope this is coming to VCF East for in-person drooling! Update: just heard that it is coming to East... can't wait.

    Qemu can now emulate a Quadra 800 and run A/UX 3.x

    This is amazing and works great - thanks to the aux/sd card floating out there for SCSI2SD. I always detested partitioning and installing AUX. Very nice work and looking forward to getting clean shutdowns from QEMU so we can reboot and come back up more easily. Running on my MacPro on 11.5.2.

    Picking up tomorrow: SE/30 with Radius Pivot monitor!

    Tell me you replaced that pram battery. It's not a maxcell but still.....

    Flaky ethernet on SE/30

    i have the same setup as you, and i have recapped mb and ps. had issue getting link. it was too long of a cat6 cable. Went from 10' to 4' and it worked. maybe a bad cable?

    Good modem & ethernet hub/switch choices for SE/30

    I can look the next time I have the SE/30 open- but I will say it must be one of the later ones because the daughter board has Thick, Thin AND 10BT on it. So 10BT was around. Perhaps the cards that came before- that only have Thick and thin, and use the Thick converters to 10BT have issues...

    Good modem & ethernet hub/switch choices for SE/30

    There is no need for an old switch. I've connected my SE/30 with an Asante/Net card to many modern 1000/100/10 switches that I have in my house. Cisco and Netgear. Every switch I've ever seen goes back down to 10bT... Now, I wouldn't plug it directly in to the router, but get a $20 1000/100/10...

    [Ebay] NIB - TAM

    An SE FDHD is arriving tomorrow. Questions for you

    Here in Philly- after receiving thousands of packages in my life, from every shipper I think this about covers it: UPS is total crap. They are jerks, they don't knock, they lie and destroy almost everything they touch. Fedex is the complete opposite, they are reliable and I've never had any...

    SE/30 Optimized for 2015

    Of course, none of the speed marketing for either format matters, given that blazing SCSI chip on the SE/30 mobo.

    SE/30 Optimized for 2015

    I've always had a liking for the CF cards- I never had one go bad. CF cards are ATA devices, with controllers. SD is something completely different. http://photo.stackexchange.com/questions/38887/why-are-cf-cards-so-much-more-expensive-than-sd-cards

    SE/30 Optimized for 2015

    Yes, well thank you for the great recapping work that keeps this humming along. I just plugged things back together! :)

    SE/30 Optimized for 2015

    So I finally got around to finishing the build on my SE/30. It was a Cragislister that I got about 10 years ago for $30 and had it at work for fun. Slowly the scsi went and then no sound. I got a re-cap from uniserver, and also traded some stuff for a re-capped analog board. I also had a decent...
