I have an LC III with an Apple IIe card.  It works but is somewhat unstable -- for example, it freezes up every few minutes (I can unfreeze by going to the Options Panel and clicking Continue to return to IIe). Also some of my programs that use double-hi-res and double-lo-res graphics work most...

Hi maz, I am not saying this the easiest way but it works for me....I had this stuff laying around anyway so it didn't cost me any extra money.... -- Get a raspberry pi running  linux (debian) on your local network (same network as the modern mac) ... this is a $50 or so investment -- Does...

I got an LCIII with the usual 12" RGB monitor (512x384 resolution) and it came with a working Apple IIe card in it. Everything is working great but I am thinking of upgrading to a different monitor, such as the 13" 640x480 RGB from Apple.  Will the IIe card work with that monitor? Will it work...

DNS SOLVED!!!!!  I set up my own DNS server (dnsmasq) on my raspberry Pi that sits on the local network, and reconfigured the Mac's TCP/IP to use the Pi as its DNS server.  Now surfing the web in Netscape on my vintage mac!! (Of course most sites don't render anymore but www.loband.org is a...

Hi all, I have an Asante SCSI/Ethernet adaptor on my LC III (System 7.1, Open Transport 1.3).  I can get TCP/IP mostly working except no DNS services at all. I am using DHCP and that seems to be working fine -- it correctly gets IP/Subnet/Router and DNS Server configured. I have installed...

Thanks -- is the power switch integrated into the power supply or is it a separate part?

Thanks all. I am not  looking to make a buck,  just want to make sure my asking price is in the right neighborhood.  I am thinking $300 works, given the 8M RAM, and that the Ethernet card is known to work along with all the stock parts.If there's no takers on Day 1 I can lower the price on Day...

I am going to the Vintage Computer Festival West  (http://vcfed.org/wp/festivals/vintage-computer-festival-west/) and want to sell my SE/30 at the consignment table. It has a lot going for it -- 8 Meg RAM, 80 GB internal HD, and a working Asante Ethernet card. Everything works (fan, sound, 1.4...

I have an LC III that seems to be in great shape except for a couple things I'd like to fix.... - The fan works but is quite noisy -- anybody know the specs I would need to consider in getting a replacement? - The power switch is flaky -- makes an "arcing" sound and occasionally won't turn on...

Makes sense.... I will research the monitor part number. But, if the monitor and VRAM did support different resolutions, how would I set that? In the same CDEV where you set the number of colors?  Thanks.

I just got an very nice LCIII on eBay with an Apple IIe card, Apple CD 300, and an apple color monitor. Still exploring how awesome this machine is... its all in great shape and everything is running well. I have read that the LCIII supports different video resolutions but can't find a Control...

Mystery solved! Thanks for that.  (I had to google AUi, I have to admit) -- I thought for sure that was a video port. I'm kinda new to the (vintage) mac world, I was an Apple II guy from the get-go (but used my share of compact macs in the 80's) -Paul

here the picture of the backplane from the ebay ad..... 

@Bolle interesting... I don't have the tool yet to open up the SE/30 case (I have one on order), I will post pics when I open it up. Maybe Asante OEM'd their Ethernet firmware to some other vendors? Or maybe the Asante card accepted a "daughterboard"? Its definitely a DB-15 plug so its gotta be...

Hi, I recently got a nice SE/30 on eBay with a combo Ethernet/video card in the slot.  According to my router, it is an Asante card (and their Ethernet driver seems to work -- for the most part:) So my questions are about the display card: - would I need a separate driver for it? (I don't see...

My cable looks just like that one, mini DIN 8 on both ends (I think it has the arrows).  

Hi folks, I have an SE and an SE/30 and I want to use peer-to-peer AppleTalk (printer port to printer port) for file sharing.... should be simple and I think I did everything I'm supposed to do, but no luck yet. The SE/30 has system 7.1 (and/or 6.0.8) and the SE has 6.0.8. I have file-sharing...
