    Concept: MacintoshX - Game like its 1991, compute like its 1986!

    That could be the case. Regardless, a Macintosh Plus and a Sega Genesis sharing a CPU sounds like a really cool idea to me, my idea was to halt the Genesis' 68000, and have its data lines and the Macintosh's data lines banked via an FPGA. The FPGA will use the bus request and bus grant lines to...

    Concept: MacintoshX - Game like its 1991, compute like its 1986!

    never said he was the first, but I am saying I'm the first to think about taking a Macintosh and a Sega Genesis and forcing them to share a CPU through an FPGA. But I wonder how the Calculator DA breaks with the 68010? It seemed fine in Sean's video, though maybe it's certain circumstances like...

    Well, Action Retro did put a 68010 in a 128K, so I assume it would work?

    Concept: MacintoshX - Game like its 1991, compute like its 1986!

    I've been developing a concept that combines the hardware legacy of the original Macintosh with the flexibility of the Sega Genesis. The goal is to create a cartridge-based add-on for the Genesis that effectively transforms it into a Macintosh Plus clone while still allowing for normal Genesis...

    yeah then that means the internal memory went bad

    yes, replace them with Y or Y2 capacitors

    The "most powerful" 68000-only Mac?

    There's plenty of space for ROM and SCSI in A00000-B00000 and C00000-D00000, but shadowing them to where they normally would be would make it easier to make ROM and SCSI calls without breaking the system, unless the calls are rerouted

    PowerMac 7100 and Linux

    any way it can be recompiled for performas and powerbooks?

    Mac Plus floppy drive making loud banging noise

    corroded battery contacts probably have nothing to do with it, but I would recommend cleaning the contacts with white vinegar

    there's supposed to be a white screen, per the Dead Mac Scrolls

    White haze all over bottom of logic board?

    you're welcome. It's always recommended when cleaning flux and other such nonsense off boards, to wipe away the alcohol or other solvents so the impurities don't stay on the board

    My 2.4GHz wireless mouse works strangely in Mac OS 9..

    process of elimination, disable extensions until the problem stops, then re-enable them until the problem comes back, then you should know what extension(s) are causing this

    White haze all over bottom of logic board?

    It might be impurities in the IPA, try using a paper towel to soak up the IPA and see if the haze comes back after doing that EDIT: someone figured it out, ignore me as I'm not experienced in this DOUBLE EDIT: nvm
