    Rage II extensions

    Ahhh, good to know.  That makes sense.  I have a PCI Mach64 and Rage128 i'm not using, but I'm figuring it may be more worthwhile to utilize a different machine for classic gaming.

    Rage II extensions

    Hey all,  I've got a pm 6400/200 that I swapped the mobo from a 5500/225 into ages ago.  Things seem fine, but it refuses to work with RAVE-capable games, such as quake.  All i get is a black screen. I've forgotten lots about which ext's I need for what chip, so any pointers would be appreciated.

    LaserWriter 12/640

    Yes indeed, I attend and work at UT Knoxville. And yes, I have wanted one of these-ish printers for a very long time now. It also makes my first personal laser printer. I cannot wait to get the bits i need to hook it up!

    LaserWriter 12/640

    Well I'm back to working at the old Apple shop on campus as the resident Apple Tech, and just to sweeten the deal my boss gave me a LaserWriter 12/640 which appears to be in mint condition. I don't have any serial or AAUI adapters to test its functionality, but I have no reason to believe it...

    Concerning the editing post policy

    Clearly you are reading some other forum. The above posts are paragraphs of all this ridiculous hooplah about privileges and latin and all kinds of other things. If you want to edit posts past the 1 hour point, just say "I think its wrong we can't edit posts past the 1 hour point" and leave it...

    Concerning the editing post policy

    There is nothing to refute. I am not strictly opposed to "freedom" and all this other nonsense which has been brought up in reference to this forum, but what I am saying is that you are all, quite simply acting as if you are children who have been told to go into timeout and are now coming up...

    Concerning the editing post policy

    well...firstly because I didn't say so. I have nothing to do with the serving or regulation of this forum. secondly because...uh...i said so.

    Concerning the editing post policy

    if you all had typed in caps, at least it would have been amusing to read. as it stands you all sound like spoiled children. this is a forum hosted and paid for by a single individual, which is none of you. as such, they can do whatever they please with the forum. if you are so offended by...

    G5 or Intel?

    yeah that sounds about right.

    Favorite mice

    I had an old, blue MouseMan Wheel which I absolutely loved, but I found that under rapid movement it wasn't precise enough, the pointer would jump all around the screen erratically. If it had a higher resolution sensor I probably would have never gotten rid of it.

    Absolutely NASSSSTY Score!!1!!!eleventy!! OMFG?

    by "apple tv thingy" do you mean the application or the card?

    Favorite mice

    I really like the Logitech MX518i gaming mouse. Its corded so its lightweight and has instantaneous response, 1800dpi so it tracks well over any surface, its buttons are well placed and it feels well built. My other favorite is my Razer Lachesis, but to be honest aside from its, frankly crazy...

    Updating my G-4 466 DA . . . finally! =8-/

    The answer is no. Lets let it be.

    Updating my G-4 466 DA . . . finally! =8-/

    Well ADC does have USB, so presumably it will carry the same digital audio signal used by the first cube speakers or the original Sound Sticks ...and by nothing else.

    80x80 restriction.

    You're right, it is a type of censorship. But, in this very small, minuscule and completely irrelevant context it is a subject I'm willing to have censored. There is no real comparison between having a genuine opinion worth hearing and, I quote, "OMG ESCHER!!1!!SHIFT1!!" That post was made...

    Updating my G-4 466 DA . . . finally! =8-/

    Dual displays is weird. For instance I have a GeForce 3 64MB that came with my DA back in the day, it has SVGA and ADC outs but will only drive one at a time. As alk mentioned though, the Radeon 9000 ME runs dual monitors just fine with the same 64MB RAM. iirc the GeForce 3 is a superior card...

    Updating my G-4 466 DA . . . finally! =8-/

    Depends on the source. I have a dual 1GHz quicksilver with 1.5GB RAM and a GeForce 4 Ti 4600 and trying to watch Hulu's 480p option brings the machine to its knees. It will do 480 video just fine if its from Quicktime or an AVI file in VLC, but flash-based players just kill it. Although that...

    G5 or Intel?

    Well not all G5s are liquid cooled, basically if its clock speed is 1.6, 1.8 or 2.0, regardless of processor count, its air-cooled and thus has no chance of spontaneous combustion. All of the air-cooled G5's at my old place of business are still alive and kicking and performing their duties...

    Updating my G-4 466 DA . . . finally! =8-/

    well honestly the default video card will probably be fine. if it can push 1600x1200 then 1368x768 will hardly be a stretch for it. But if you do want to upgrade you are unfortunately stuck with eBay or the like, as the 9200 and 9800, the last AGP4x cards being made, are no longer in...
