    It has been a while since my last visit...

    ... and back then I was complaining about the lack of conquests/liberations I got. Well, not any more! :p In the course of this year I got (all for free, mostly would-be dumped machines): - a G4/733 Digital Audio, complete with a 17'' Studio Display (the big, extraterrestrial one, over a...

    hello from my Quadra 800 :D

    Well, here am I, typing from my Performa 5200 :) . It sure looks strange browsing 68k MLA with IE 4.5 and a 640x480 resolution... (the monitor supports up to 832x624, but the TV tuner only operates while the screen is at 640x480...).

    hello from my Quadra 800 :D

    Maybe later I'll salute this fine community from my Performa 5200 :) . Friday night is TV series night... so, one excuse for firing up the Performa (as it has a TV tuner...).

    hello from my Quadra 800 :D

    I ran IE 2 in my SE/30 for quite some time and it was a really reliable browser! Can't say the same about IE3+, unfortunately :p . Of course, Netscape is also a good option. But iCab supports many modern web things, and works well too! If you have an intermediate Mac (in my case, I have a...

    20" Cinema Display

    Large displays are really great, and the Apple ones have a really nice picture. I am no videophile (I hope this word exists, I was trying to make use of the word audiophile :) ), so I really don't care for response times, viewing angles, and such... but I noticed my new HP display needed a lot...

    Vail/Elise III

    For some time I had two of my LCIII's inside a drawer, with an opening for cooling. I had to lift the case (with Lego bricks) in order to make some space for the hot air to circulate. And I had them with the top case open :) . They don't generate that much heat... but again, I have my Mac...

    iMac Core 2 Duo.

    Yes, it could be the slower internal hard drive, like Cory mentioned (the mini has a laptop 5400 RPM hard drive...). Have you tried booting off an external FireWire drive? The performance should increase significantly...

    Garage sale find

    Really neat score! :)

    Multi-client IM

    That would be really neat! ;) But no, I don't know any IM client like that. There's AIM, Yahoo, and I believe MSN Messenger for OS 9 exists, too, but only in separate versions... :p

    iMac Core 2 Duo.

    Nice, nice! These iMacs are really nice... I have a "Early 2006" one, and with the 2 GB RAM upgrade runs like a champ :) .

    Scanners? TWAIN?

    Yes! I remember using it with my HP 5300C scanner and it could even be used with a document feeder (which I believe it was an optional feature for the 5300C...). Unfortunately, me and VueScan didn't get along: it was always crashing, had a crumpled interface, but did the job - until I got a...

    Rhapsody DR1 installed on my PM 8500

    Really nice! I once installed the x86 version on my old PC, but that didn't go too well... :p We've come a long way, indeed ;) .

    A working Mac SCSI to Compact Flash adapter?

    Quite nice indeed! :) I apologize for digging up this thread, but I really want some feedback about this: has anyone tried this Adtron adapter? I'm planning on getting one of those for my LC III web server (its 40 MB hard drive is a bit too small to me :)) . I know there's also the CF...

    even more minor haul

    Right, right :) . Guess I'll have to clean the dust out of my Extened then :) . I really love that keyboard! :D

    even more minor haul

    Oh, and by the way (sorry about hijacking this topic), does the iMate work with 10.5? I was thinking of getting one for my Intel iMac - I really like my Extended, wanted to use it instead of the tiny and uncomfortable Pro keyboard I have here :p .

    Gateway Laptop

    Or you can stack up a pile of books behind the display, to hold it in place [:D] ]'> . Had a girl who came into the college helpdesk I work who had a severe problem with her laptop's hinges... and she did just that. :p

    New Here

    Already had your blog on my reading list... don't know where I got it, but it sure has lots of resources on old PowerBooks and Newtons! :)
