    IDEA: IceCast Stream Player for Classic Mac OS?

    During my experimentation with internet radio streams, I have become somewhat comfortable with the basics of setting up IceCast, connecting a source of audio to it, and listening to the result via a web browser or media player that supports connecting to streams. Then, as I was reading the...

    How To Tell 64k ROMs from 128k (Plus) ROMs via IC Markings

    Here's what I've got for my 512k board: And, for comparison, here's the markings from what are definitely Plus ROMs (installed in a Plus board): They're obviously different, and I'm like 98% sure these are genuine 64k ROMs in this 512k board, but I want to see if I can remove that 2% of...

    Difference Between "Macintosh II Video Card" and "High Resolution Display Video Card"

    I have two of the former, and one of the latter. How are they different? As I recall, the II was available with either the standard monochrome card for the basic Mac II display, or a high resolution card which could drive the HiRes color display. c

    I got an early version of the first generation iBook (the one that came in either Tangerine of Blueberry) last year, and it boots OS 8.6. Newer ones which came from the factory with 9.0 (such as my first one, bought new) apparently cannot boot 8.6. The main difference appears to be the boot ROM...

    PowerBase 200 - No ADB

    Thought I'd post this issue in a separate thread, for clarity. Everything else appears to be functioning as intended, except ADB. It was working when I put it all together a few nights ago, then when I tried powering it on the following morning, there was no ADB! Anyone know what could've...

    Pinout of PowerBase 200 PSU, and Replacement Options

    I'm excited to finally have a new logic board for the thing (my first not-new Mac Acquisition, bought sometime around 2005 or 2006), so that I can actually get it to work for the first time in nearly 9 years (a mouse built a nest in it in 2010 and fried the original board... yuck!) However, I'm...
