    Apple YOINKS everything good... Let's fix it

    I was looking at MacFUSE with HFS support and was disappointed at reports that it doesn't read old HFS floppies so it isn't really a full solution to the HFS limitations imposed since after Leopard. This next part is related, trust me. I was recently trying to archive some of my Time Machine...

    Classic Mac software on PPC runs too fast!

    zombie Quadra 610 mostly boots...sometimes

    I had to join to consult the 68k experts so I can help somebody relive some old memories. This Quadra last ran just fine in 2015. It was fully functional then and was left in the garage. Last week, I opened the Mac and about six surface-mount electrolytic capacitors were rolling around. I...
