What happens if you force quit once it freezes? I had this issue with my IIci and noticed it happened when it was networked. I'd force quit and it'd come back. I'd do this again and on the third attempt it would suddenly reboot / shut down properly. I was never able to pinpoint the exact issue.

Out of interest: Has there been any success in recapping 8600 PSUs? I know they are darn hard to work on ...

Since you won't be coding any commercial grade stuff, just pick the one you like the most / feel home. Pick something you enjoy and stick with it. Maybe you may want to try something easier first if you're new to coding, like Hypercard. Gives results fast. Or maybe Chipmunk Basic?

Yep. Had the same issue with mine until it was recapped.

Wow, exciting project. Please keep up the good work! Curious to see if you can manage to make them available! I'd definitely order two of them for my Macs

Nope, it's not. Could that cause trouble indeed?

Hi everyone, lucky me - I got a 3com Etherlink/NB card for my Mac IIci from a kind soul! Finally being able to connecting it to the world! Unfortunately, the latter doesn't seem to work so easily. Here's the trouble: I installed the card. Connected a AUI <-> RJ-45 adapter at the back...

Hey everyone, I bought a WiFi modem that will allow my IIci to dial into BBSes. If it works, I may post about it in another thread :-)  my problem is that it comes with a RS-232 port, which isn't something our Macs have. Rummaging in the basement boxes I've found a RS-232 DB9 to 8P Mini Din...

Hi everyone, so, we have been using my beloved Mac IIci (dream machine of my youth; dad instead brought home a LC). I’ve heard the IIci does very well with a cache card installed. Unfortunately mine didn’t come with one. I’ve seen ads of manufacturers claiming a 30-40% speed increase. Now we...

Thanks everyone for the answers! Had never heard of the Farallon MacRecorder but that would be exactly the kind of solution I'm looking for. Suppose finding one today (+ in Germany, where I'm located) is like winning the lottery :-D  will set up an ebay search for it anyway, so thanks again...

Hey there, the kids and me are having a great time with the IIci. (to which we upgraded from our age-old family LC) The only thing we're missing is the audio-in capability of the LC. The kids could easily spend an hour on the LC just recording their voices, making funny sounds, recording...

Being rather a networking dummie, I wasn’t aware of the inability to send TCP/IP over LocalTalk. Wow, you never stop learning. Apple IP Gateway. I got some googling to do. Let's see if I can figure out an easy way to get this going ... Thanks for the help, appreciated! :) As requested...

Scenario: A Macintosh LC is to be connected to a home network via a Daynaport E / Z for printing to a Postscript printer & FTP / Gopher access. OpenTransport is no option since it requires a (fast) 68030, so we’re having to use MacTCP 2.06. Available Hardware: Macintosh LC with 10MB RAM...
