Agreed, I scored about 10 years of Electronics Now magazine, and one of the projects they listed was a Tube head amplifier for your CD player. If anyone wants a copy of the article, i'd be glad to scan it.
There were a bunch of people posting their desire to see a universal NUBUS adapter, one that allowed the connection of many modern peripherals such as usb flash drives, parallel port devices, CF cards, ect. I had a wild idea when I took inventory of all the IC's I have lying around. What if...
Thanks very much for the help guys. What I've decided to do is build 2 enclosures, the first with 1 9Gb HDD and 1 CD-RW, and the second with 4 9Gb drives, this would allow me to alter the configuration later should the need arise.
What I have now, and don't like very much, is an HP SCSI SX-W hard drive array. I have used it with PC's in the past, but it weights ~80 pounds and sounds like a NASCAR race when it is operating. I wanted to replace it with a smaller, sleeker unit. It uses HD-68 pin interface, and I have a...
How many SCSI drives can the Mac SCSI bus support? Is it actually all 7 devices, or is it 6 plus the host adapter?
I found a source for some really cheap swapable drive trays and 9G drives but I don't want to buy too many ;)
I was thinking of riviting together a form-fitting aluminium case...
I'll tell you an even sadder story...
When I was at Illinois State, the physics department had oodles of 5-flavors macs for program and simulation modeling. They replaced them with G4's and G5's, some were recycled, but more than a few got 'chucked.' Google: Morton Pumkin Chucking. We...
Funny! I'll do that.
I am thinking about pulling one of those "screen images simulated" deals when I post it. I'll hook the monitor to the video output on my PC and display something completely impossible for the IIe. Somebody 'll get a kick out of it.
Ok, no problem, I only have the disk controller and a printer interface card. I did pull the cards out for my initial test with no change in result. I'll pull the chips this coming weekend.
Thanks for your suggestions
I would use the ids50-db25 I am using one for my LC-dock project. The price is ungodly insane on your ebay link though!!! I bought my adapters (completely identical) from another company 4/$1. I just checked their site and it would appear that they have run out since two days ago. They have...
I pulled out my IIe that I haven't touched in years and found the video to be scrambled when I turned it on.
When you boot without an OS (no floppy drive) it should say Apple //e but in its place are some scattered pixels at the top of the screen. I've tried this with the IIe monitor and a TV...
