Has anyone put together a list of what keyboards/mice/displays/etc were "standard equipment" with each Macintosh? I'm finally making plans to give my systems proper permanent setups, and I think it would be more fun to have the original peripherals, or something like them, as opposed to a big...

I have my Mystic CC running 7.6, booting off a RaSCSI volume. I'm also using the RaSCSI for both SCSI-Ethernet emulation, and netatalk AFP serving. (side note: I absolutely, unequivocally love the RaSCSI product, and heartily recommend it. I was able to set up a Classic II to boot off of it...

Hey all, got my QS 2002 out for the weekend. Decided to put a SATA card and extra hard drive in it for more storage, when I discovered that it only had one hard drive tray installed, which was already occupied. Bummer.  Does anyone have a diagram or parts list with part numbers for all the...

I guess this should be here instead of Peripherals? I have a 650 here with its original caddy loader that seems to be dead. Will take the caddy in and immediately spit it back out again, and the OS won't see it on the SCSI chain. I assume that sounds like a recap is in order? Does anyone have...

I recently uploaded a disk to the Garden, and realized I should probably scan the face of it for the archive. I had this old HP ScanJet 3c in storage, and I thought it would be more fun to do the job with vintage hardware 'cause that's why we're all here, right? When I pulled the scanner out, I...

Picked the aforementioned up today from a guy in Bloomington, IL. I have several Power Macs, and a few compacts, but other than a flaky/crumbling 660av, this is my only full-fat 040 in the house. I love my Mystic CC, but I don't feel like doing the 640x480 upgrade, so now I have a good 68k...

I have approximately nil analog electronics experience. Would it be possible to add a circuit to the Color Classic's analog board that would allow one to switch between the original resolution's signal path and the VGA signal path? I would assume the switching would have to take place while the...

The 9600 has 10BaseT Ethernet built in. I'd like to speed up file transfers. Are there 10/100BaseT Ethernet PCI cards out there that are compatible with OS 9.2.2? I'd imagine there would have to be, but I have no idea what chipsets to look for, if any.

I have one of those re-flashed Radeon 7000 cards. While it boots to a desktop and runs the OS just fine, if you try to run a 3d accelerated game (Mechwarrior 2 RAVE, Deus Ex in hardware mode) all I get is a black screen and a lockup. Is there a way to better diagnose this issue, or should I give...

I have a re-flashed Radeon 7000 that I've been using in my PM9600. I have the drivers installed, but they didn't come with the requisite control panel. Does anyone know where I can find such a beast? Does it exist? There's an OS X version on the Garden but no OS 9 version.

The most common boards I see on eBay are Sonnet Crescendo G3s, usually 300 MHz. Are these the best cards available now, or should I be holding out for another brand? (Newer Tech, Vimage, etc) I most commonly see the 512K cache model, but sometimes I see a 1M cache pop up. Does the cache make...
