I do have a few Dell displays that take anything, but I liked the look of this and the promise of internal expandibility (that MiSTer carrier looks swell). But lack of SoG might kill it for me. It feels a bit like it's targetted at a generation earlier, Amigas and 8-bitters.

Did anybody get one of the Checkmate monitors? They appear to be generally available now, I'm wondering how they'd work with, say, a Quadra 700. I like the look and the ability to maybe connect up a few systems. Even Haiku is pretty decent at 1280x1024.

This looks great. Hope it comes to a European reseller soon.

That is extremely impressive work. Well done!

PSUs I'd say yes: http://atxg4.com/sawtooth.html

Would it be possible to add more RAM externally? Serial (P)SRAM on a PIO?

The two-card setup I mention is one Core card that connects to the HD and interface, and one card that has just DSPs. This is the minimal setup for TDM. I think you can use the HD/interface card on its own, but then there's no software mixing. Maybe if you're recording instruments and mixing in...

Nice to have a ProTools thread again! We had one with some good info but it was unfortunately lost in a crash a few years ago. I don't personally have a Nubus ProTools setup running at this moment. I've had a few different ones: * Simple, minimal two-card TDM setup in a Quadra 700 with 882...

Yes, I suppose there's some good reason they exist!

I bought a big Wacom tablet (A4) thinking it would be better. It's not. It means you have to move your arm a lot more and it's impractical on the desk. Also, A4 is the size of the active area, it's quite a bit bigger than a sheet of paper.

You're running mains voltage over a barrel jack? edit - I realize what's going on now! I'd like to apologize for assuming that you're an idiot, as only a true a idiot would.

I don't remember and I don't have the code at hand right now (disconnected tower machine), but I remember looking at the docs and thinking about dropping it, and then it turned out simple enough.

I implemented drag and drop for my to do list application and it was a lot easier than it looked at first glance.

I never got around to implementing this feature, but I did find some conversion functions in Apple's headers. I was scared off by the long prototypes though, and I think they were part of ATSUI which AFAICT is OS 8.5+ only, so it wasn't perfect for my usecase (aiming for 7.5.5 compatibility).

Beautiful! I still have a 12" 1.33GHz as well, bought it new cause I had one of the G3 iBooks that kept having graphics issues and needing to be sent in for repairs (Apple extended the warranty on that model!). Unlike yours, my G4 is scratched up and dirty and the hard drive's on its last...
