Article over on LEM says:     13" AppleColor High-Res, 12" Monochrome and High-Res Monochrome [**] Mac II (Toby), Mac II High-Res, 4/8, 8/24  Anyone ever use these back in the day?  While they are both long gone, it might be interesting to dig them (or Mr Natao) up for investigation.

With thanks to defor for compiling this information over here. /B =====   These are the limits for HFS support on Macintosh System/MacOS: (I had to dig a bit to find this) Maximum HFS partition sizes by OS version: Macintosh System 1.x - 7.1.x : 2GB1 Macintosh System 7.5.x : 4GB1 Macintosh...

Over at SegaRetro is the best reasonably noob-friendly explanation I've discovered yet of the powerful features of the 68k family, why programmers and system builders were drawn to it, and the shortcomings of the 68000 which were addressed in later models in the series...

Listing this under Hacks rather than Newton, because it seems like it would be usable on a lot of older machines: Giving Wifi To An Apple Newton - Hackaday   {bolding mine} The module itself is called the Nano WiREACH SMT OB G2. It has some other interesting features, like DHCP, optional...

Thought this article on Hackaday might inspire or suggest some possible attacks on those SMRT Powerbook batteries that sometimes won't play nice when re-celled.   Unlocking ThinkPad batteries    

As in the title.  Does anyone know?  Would anyone be able to run a diff on the two files and see?

Stupid ADB Tricks According to this, most ADB mice have a pin on their chip for a second button. He also gets a trackball from a Powerbook working as an external desktop device. And builds a converter for Mac 128k mice to ADB from an old ADB mouse:  

Just wondering if anyone has ever got the recording side of these /edit/ All-In-Wonder / cards to work in a Mac.

This is probably of interest to about two people here, including me, but anyway. You know those cheap roll-up USB keyboards and drumpads you see around the place?  Someone got around to writing a Mac "driver" for them. http://www.insightful-schmidt.info/dreamcheekymusic/ I say "driver"...

{move to Hacks & Dev; renamed} As subject. Either one, good working order. PM for details.

Pretty much the title is the question. What, if any, are the differences between the 7100 and 8100 logic boards? Assuming identical speeds.

Don't get too excited; the auction is for a brochure only. http://cgi.ebay.com/Mobile-Mac-512K-for-Police-EMT-Fire-CD-Brochure-/140709230100 Just thought this was curious. A toughened 512k logicboard setup with a separate monitor & keyboard/trackball for emergency service vehicles.

http://www.metamage.com/code/MacRelix/ Never heard of this one before - anyone else? Sounds a bit like MachTen, only free. Also, unlike MachTen, it looks like it is still being actively updated. Also cute/interesting: Maxim: A Mac Simulator in Javascript

Things I did not know existed: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Aapps-Micro-TV-MT-100N-MTV001B-Vintage-Nubus-TV-Tuner-Card-Apple-Macintosh-/251163257118 Pity that analog TV transmission is disappearing - though it does look like the board has sockets for composite I/O as well.

Well this is interesting. NB: I do not know if this applies to all Keyspan serial adapters or just some of them. Caveat emptor. /ETA/ The author of the linked article has demolished and described a few different models; there's a table at the bottom of the page. The EZ-USB is made by Cypress...

In which Bunsen joins the 21st century at long last. So I was driving home the other day, and noticed I was in the general vicinity of a branch of Cash Converters I hadn't visited for a long while, and had some spare cash in my bank account for a change. I dropped in to have a random look at...
