So, I finally got my Pi 3 hooked to a TV. Installed one of the versions of Raspberry Pi 32-bit OS (with GUI). Now I'm stuck. I have absolutely no idea how to do any of this other stuff. I wanted to install Netatalk for its CUPS support to get my Macs printing to a modern Laser Printer. I have...

Title says it all. I know there are threads around with things like it, but I wasn't able to find one with this exact case.

I got this thing at an insanely reasonable price, courtesy of @obsolete. This is the first accelerator of any kind I’ve ever had…I never seem to get lucky like some of you, every machine I ever find is almost always bone stock. I wasn’t sure what to expect… My SE SuperDrive has 4 MB RAM, and a...

At VCF Midwest, I picked up this neat little Apple Ethernet 10T/5 Workgroup Hub that had found its way into the free stuff pile. After reading up on it, it appears that it can function basically as a mini-hub for a bunch of Macs...which is exactly what I would need if I was going to, say, link...

I’ve heard the performer had a really good manual that went with it. I’m getting a clone soon and wasn’t sure if anyone had the actual documentation scanned somewhere. A quick search turned up nothing.

A friend gifted me this Pi. I have not the slightest idea how/what I should do with this thing. I don’t know how they work or what this one would be suited for. Something Mac-related is what I’m looking for, of course. What would you guys do with it?

Hello everyone, I’m trying to get Halo to run on my Mac Pro, and I’m getting the “black screen” issue where the title screen doesn’t render. This is the 2.0.4 universal binary version. I’m running Mac OS 10.6, and I’ve got a Radeon 5870 for a graphics card paired with a DisplayPort based LED...

Hello, Trying to identify these cards as I have little recollection of exactly which model they are for, or what their specs are. I seem to recall they are Quicksilver cards but I could be wrong. Need some expert help with IDing. Apple part number 820-1282-A Apple part number 820-1314-A Both...

Hey everyone, Got these two video cards in my pile I know nothing about. One I can see is a Mac Radeon 9250. The other is an Apple Card with VRAM slots. I’m not sure what Macs either of these will work with, or what they are good for.

Does anyone have an installer for whatever the latest OS 9 OpenGL extensions were? I am trying to get Hornet Korea working properly on my Quicksilver with OS 9.2.2, and I think somehow a mix of OpenGL extension versions was installed, and it is playing havoc with things. The only ones I have in...

I finally got around to replacing the SCSI2SD in my SE SuperDrive with a BlueSCSI v2 last week. I was initially hesitant because of not having any BlueSCSI experience, but the SCSI2SD starting to flake out changed my mind! So, the installation physically, using the online instructions, worked...

Happened upon a 2010 Mac Pro with three 512 GB SSDs, ATI Radeon RX 580, a bunch of OWC RAM, and dual 2.93 GHz processors (highest twin processor config that year) all for under $250 including the shipping off eBay. It was in fairly decent shape, aside of some nicks on the handles. Of course, UPS...

I've been more and more aware of this strange issue affecting my recapped and restored 1400. The machine gets very confused about batteries and discharge time. After a few minutes of use (in this case, it was 25 minutes), I get the "reserve power and screen dimmed" message when it is obvious...

Never heard of this…what is this for...

Hey everyone, Going to look at possibly buying this B&W G3 that’s about 30 min from me. I already know it doesn’t have RAM, and looks like the modem has been removed (don’t need it anyway), but was wondering if anyone saw any other red flags in these photos. I was going to offer him $120 for...

Granted, this isn't PPC, but there is no area for Intel I can see, so here goes... I have two replacement LG DVD R/W drives in my Mac Pro. Both are the same. Both are SATA drives connected to the ATA bus via ATA to SATA adapters. Never had an issue with these with HDs or otherwise. The drives...

Hi everyone, Thanks to the MouseStick II from @tashtari , I now have a second one to play Hellcats with my son on the machine that he and his sisters use. However, it also made me acutely aware that this one has some really, really good lubrication on it...I assume from the factory. My original...

I know this doesn't really qualify as "68k" and all of that, but I finally obtained something I have needed to round out the collection and OS "coverage" - a 2008 Mac Pro. These came out when I was about halfway through med school, and boy, did I ever want one bad. I always wanted a tower, and...

I was curious: with all the talk of mini vMac and Paul Pratt having seemingly vanished, has anyone taken any thought of looking back at the original vMac project? I was using the original PPC vMac the other day on one of my 1400s when that occurred to me. Obviously it is not the same animal, but...
