Unfortunate 😔 Thanks for trying

I haven't logged in here for a while, but I see you're trying to get a SCSI2SD working in a 550c. Hope you were able to resolve any issues. And thanks for your purchase! I did get it working previously on a PB 520, there was a program that was provided to format the SD card and image the drive...

Any info about this drive? I don't have a PB 1400. Yet. But wondering if it's worth acquiring one just for the sake of using this. I assume the same software that works for the 5300 MO drive should work with this one, too... as it doesn't have any software... or box... or manuals..

I saw pictures of a Tango 2 on Trio board, if that's the one you're referring to. But I can imagine there being multiple revisions those days.  Yeah, it is interesting. I couldn't tell the difference between my two cards though, they both look the same besides the imported one having blue...

Very cool, thanks a lot for the linky! I’ll have to try it out when I’m back in town tomo. (:  I have two of the CS ii Farallon cards, both react differently to the TAM. The first one I acquired worked for a few boot cycles, but only after I would reload the drivers from the CD that came with...

Thank you, sir. Glad I could finally say mine is finally specced up there with yours now. Definitely don’t see them show up very often, and I expect to have a tight grip on this one for a long time.  I guess the last thing to figure out is how to get that Farallon comm II Card working right...

I see, that’s unfortunate. I actually just recently sold a 400MHz 1MB cache Sonnet Crescendo\L2, breaking about even for what I paid importing it. Would have been very interested, but hope it all pans out and you can bring that board back to life. I know I have a spare board in the closet, but I...

Thank you, sir! I hope you get yours fixed, I assume corrosion issue? I've been waiting a while for one to pop up, only to miss many others that have. I've seen seen some ridiculous deals, as low as 250, and as high as over 500.  That card is actually a Sonnet Tango version 1 :)  I did have a...

My latest acquisition, a Sonnet Crescendo\L2 500MHz 1M (BG3-500-1-kit03), completes my TAM conquest. I've sold off a lot of my vintage Mac collection to focus on my Leica hobby and concentrate on just a handful of my fav Macs (namely the 2400c, Quadra 700, and of course the TAM).  545 after tax...

I eagerly await the machine translation. I have this book, and there are a lot of nice pictures in it that I wish I can understand the captions to.  Cheers, 

I see, I think I have read about the project in another thread. While I hear a lot of negativity over replacing the 68040 daughtercard for PPC, I enjoy bringing the computer closer to being as modern as possible, and that means being able to use software that runs best (or only) on PPC. Hoping...

Oh hey, that seller has my name [:P] It is a very cool combination. Easy swapping the keys, and perfect chance to clean the whole assembly while you’re at it.  The SCSI to IDE connector is very picky. Once you find an SSD that pairs with it, however, the system works smoothly. Goes...

If I leave the USB card with the Logitech nano receiver installed in one of the USB ports, it still gets stuck at the Mac OS boot screen. Is this what you mean?  I think it's USB PCMCIA cards in general, leaving a PCMCIA to Compact Flash card (with the CF card) installed doesn't affect boot up...

Got my hopes up  [:P]  was really hoping to find a solution. So far, I’ve just been ejecting the card right after I click Shut Down (command + E), but I forget sometimes

Cool, those have piqued my curiosity even as of late. Are they usable for anything than a showpiece? Congrats on acquiring one, too

Thank you, sir! It's a beautiful machine, and the 2400c/240 systems have been popping up surprisingly more frequently on Yahoo! I think it's a good time to get one if you're thinking about it. Mouse button is definitely something else.  The RAM module was one of the more difficult pieces to...

Guys, I think this is it. I probably have the most ultimate PB 2400c in the entire forum. Quite possibly the nation. And even, the world. I can go no further. 400MHz G3 and max RAM. All this. To make. The most ultimate. Mobile. Vintage Tomb Raider gaming rig. Evar.  But I mostly use it to...

Nice setup you acquired! I remember the “math lab” at my alma mater was full of PowerMac G4s, but our physics labs had the G3s. Good and bad memories. Last time I visited, all of the G4s were replaced with PCs. I could only hope they went to good homes, too... :(  

I could be wrong, but it looks like IA5? I had another pic, but too much light glare, so I turned off the overhead light which darkened the setting for the pics above.  I can can double check when I get back from work if the code is still not legible 

What a story. Congrats getting it back up and running! Truly amazing your dad kept the box, receipt and everything with it. I can picture this computer being passed down your family line.
