    Best source for SCSI to SD for my IIcx

    He just told me to give him another week so I'll sit tight.  In the mean time I've ordered another NuBus video card for a second Apple FPD.  I'm getting communication and it seems like he just has a stock issue.

    Best source for SCSI to SD for my IIcx

    Wow, three days from Japan.  You can't ask for better than that.  Thanks waynestewart, maybe I'll see my order get a tracking number soon.

    Best source for SCSI to SD for my IIcx

    Thank you sstaylor for the link, much appreciated.  Omidimo, do you remember how long it took you to get the TwinSpark once he shipped it?

    Best source for SCSI to SD for my IIcx

    When I follow the link from codesrc.com it doesn't show any items available from them.  It could take me a month to get my money back from Artmix but when I do I'll go this route.  It's cheaper and it ships from the USA.  Surely my Quantum drive will hold out until then.  Knock on wood. Yes...

    Best source for SCSI to SD for my IIcx

    I purchased a CF AztecMonster from Artmix on eBay but I'm fairly certain I won't receive it.  He hasn't shipped mine and I purchased it quite a while ago and he's also received some feedback that mirrors my experience with him.  Not here to bash him, just stating.  I've looked at his products...

    eBay'ed a PowerBook 180. What to do next?

    Well, I thought I had a source for a new old stock screen from VIS in the UK. After talking with them more I found out it was just a pull from another machine. That does me little good, considering they wanted $100 US dollars shipped. If it had been a sealed screen I might have bit on it and...

    eBay'ed a PowerBook 180. What to do next?

    Guys, thanks for the replies. Much appreciated. So are ALL active matrix displays affected by this problem or just some? And while the passive matrix displays aren't as stunning do they have this problem at all? How about the color active matrix display of the 180c? I would assume it to be...

    eBay'ed a PowerBook 180. What to do next?

    My worst fears are already being realized. After using the 180b for a few hours this afternoon I noticed the corners getting darker (picture attached). I read through some old threads but there really was no definitive fix for the problem. It seems replacing the original capacitors could only...

    eBay'ed a PowerBook 180. What to do next?

    I parted ways with $100 for a PowerBook 180 that came in the mail Saturday. I know it sounds like a lot for an old PowerBook but I wanted the 180b specifically and this one looked pristine. I didn't want a clunker - and I was thankful to not get a clunker. This is my first "retro" Power Book...

    CF AztecMonsters have landed

    I'd love to see how well this works in your SE/30. Am I understanding his website correctly? He's developed a new PS and analog board as well for the SE/30? Is the CF AztecMonster an extremely limited run?

    Radius Monochrome Pivot NEW!

    Thanks for the replies! Trash80, that's awesome. I'm now on the lookout for Pivot cards as well. All I have that will run this display currently is a Quadra 700 and IIcx. I'll scan my documentation but it'll take me a few days. I'll send it to you! Thanks olePigeon, I have a love for...

    Radius Monochrome Pivot NEW!

    It wasn't a sealed box but the packing around the monitor was sealed. It looks perfect! It's a model 0361. I just acquired a Quadra 700 and the NUBUS card came with the monitor (as well as all cables, software and documentation). BUT I'm wondering if the color Radius Pivot card for the SE/30...

    Retr0brite and White Apple Pro Keyboards

    I even noticed it on my son's eMac. The back shell seems unaffected but the front bezel has yellowed several shades. I have a 512k and a Quadra 700 apart at the moment ready for retrobright. Once I finish those I'll tackle his eMac and the white pro keyboard that came with it (also...

    PageMaker 3.0 and PowerBook 180

    Sorry, I realize this is an old post. If you're still having trouble or have put this task to the side you may want to check to see if you have any printers installed. I believe PageMaker requires a printer. If you have the documentation that came with your copy of 3.0 that should help you...

    IIgs

    Wait for Rich Dreher's latest, if you can. I've had a IIGS sitting for a while now just waiting to put his latest card in it. I'm guessing it'll cost around $120 or so but I suspect it'll be worth it and it's almost a completed project.

    Is this an eBay find or elsewhere? This is exactly what I'm looking at to replace my beloved G5.

    Mac SE Superdrive boots to a sad Mac

    I'll try that as soon as I get home. I'll throw in a disk utility and see if it recognizes the hard drive. I think now the HD is okay. You're right, I'd probably get a "?" because it wouldn't find the system folder. I just turned it on again and it got to the "Welcome to Macintosh" screen...

    Mac SE Superdrive boots to a sad Mac

    Thanks for the replies! Okay, I cleaned out the RAM as suggested and it booted fine. I brought it back upstairs and flipped it on to do some work and now it just boots to a happy Mac. I'm wondering if I've now lost the hard drive. I've verified everything is hooked up correctly. Any thoughts?

    Mac SE Superdrive boots to a sad Mac

    Hello all, I've looked over the error codes on other websites but to be honest I'm still not sure what my error code means. I've got an SE Superdrive running 6.0.8, my daily machine, that at times boots to a Sad Mac with the 00000004 00000040 error code. Other times it boots to a checkerboard...
