    LC PDS DOS Card?

    Is there such a thing, for the original LC PDS? Just curious. The only LC PDS cards I know of are video, sound, Ethernet, Apple II, and accelerators, but a DOS card would be really cool. Also, how rare are LC PDS video cards that do 1024x768 or better. According to the wiki, there's one...

    SE/Plus Speculation

    So there are lots of 020/030 accelerators for the SE and Plus (actually not sure about 030s for the Plus but I think so anyway). Some of them have RAM slots that let you go above 4 MB, either as a ramdisk or by using VM, and at least all those with the 030 must have a PMMU in there. So, would it...

    CC Mystic Bus Error Puzzle

    In between bouts of schoolwork, I've been trying to get some kind of OS on my Mystic CC, but nothing seems to work. First I tried to make a System 7.1 boot CD (with the system enabler ResEdit hack), but it won't boot. I think that the image as burnt by the OS X disk utility wasn't bootable. Next...

    E-mail

    So this is a topic that I've gleaned a lot of spotty information on from this forum and elsewhere, but I still haven't figured out anything that works. Basically I seek an e-mail client that runs on some version of System 7, and can cope with modern e-mail encryption. (Specifically, it would...

    Making a SSW CD for Mystic CC

    I've been trying to put together a boot/install CD for Mystic (non 640x480) CCs. My plan is to take all the files from disk images (modifying the necessary ones in ResEdit) and then burn them to a CD with the OS X disk Utility. Will this be bootable on the CC? Or is there some classic Mac OS...

    NetBSD on a Color Classic

    So I've been setting up system 7.1 on my color classic with an LC 575 motherboard (I know this has a name, I just can't remember it). Does anyone know if netbsd will run on this combination? Also, has anyone tried to run the Dillo web browser on Netbsd? It seems like it would be perfect for a...

    PB1400 Hard Drive(?) Issue

    Recently I installed a new hard drive in the 1400, a generic PC 40GB one. Installing OS9 worked. The disk tools complained that the drive had encryption enabled (definitely false :) ) but still formatted the disk, and OS9 ran fine for a while. Now though, it won't boot, giving the...

    A Few Questions about the SE

    I've recently become quite infatuated with the SE. I have a few questions before I run off and buy one though: 1. What is the best way to do e-mail on an SE? 2. Can the 68000 do open transport networking? 3. There are some 020/030 accelerators that have RAM slots. Do any of them let you go...

    Powerbook 1400 is Awesome

    This is basically just a testimonial how great the pb1400 is :p I got mine two years ago from a friend who (finally) found it too old. I fell in love with it, especially the keyboard and its compact size. I've been using it as my main work computer (for math grad school) continuously since...

    Yet Another Mystery Video Card

    Found this bad boy on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-Macintosh-NuBus-Video-Card-RasterOps-/390227356149?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5adb5ce9f5 I've looked closely on Gamba's site but no such model number. I thought it could make a good fit in my IIci depending on what it actually is...

    What to do for Stuffit

    I think I am in some variant of Stuffit hell. Here is the situation. My IIci arrived today and it works great. My only other computer is a 12" Powerbook G4 (running 10.4). It has stuffit but no floppy drive, and the iici has a floppy deive, no CD, and no stuffit. The IIci also has Ethernet (runs...

    IIci Internal Video with LCD

    Hi, this is my first post on MLA. I just bought a IIci, and I need to know: will the onboard video work with a sync on green LCD? It sounds like from reading older posts that most add-on video cards will do this fine, just wondered if anyone had done it with the built-in video from a II series...
