    What kind of cables does Iomega External CD-RW have ?

    I can buy one, but it doesen't have any cables. On ebay i only saw cables in bags (i cannot see theyr pins etc.). I am not sure about the Iomega External CD-RW i can buy, but it is a 52x32x52x i think. From what version of Apple system a  Iomega External CD-RW can be used ?

    Is System 7.1.1 bootable as a live CD ?

    I was thinking that if i buy a AppleCD, can i make a System 7.1.1 bootable as a live CD ? So i can use it by only reading different application from the cd, not writing and/or copy. I don't have a floppy drive for my Powerbook 150. FreeDOS is bootable in a nvidia drivers cd (reading applications...

    Formating, as i understood it, a Toshiba 6007 MB from Windows 7 Ultimate for Powerbook 150 ?

    But if i put a formated empty hdd on the Powerbook 150, tools will appear from the Mac ? The programs reside in memory ? Because the former Mac hdd is dead. I don't have a floopy drive either.

    Formating, as i understood it, a Toshiba 6007 MB from Windows 7 Ultimate for Powerbook 150 ?

I must format the hdd to fat32 (already is) and than from inside Powerbook 150 i will format fat32 to HFS plus, but wikipedia say that Powerbook 150 had System 7, which is not formated with HFS plus, as HFS+ came only with Mac OS 8 ? Partitions must be...

    Delock Converter 2.5 IDE HDD 44 pin > SATA 22 pin with white residue

    Good helping words. I made a video i will post here that shows that the convertor is working. The hdd makes the same sounds in the convertor as it did in PowerBook 150. My windows 7 ultimate pc won't recognise it in bios and windows, but being that the sounds are the same, i can say that the...
