There is one last thing, doug, that is missing from your hack-a STICKY topic!!!
It seems so! So I guess it's only fitting that I am the one who adds post #1000....I think we all get our brush with Internet fame at some time or another. I guess this is yours, Doug
Thanks JDW!First off, congratulations to you Doug and bbraun for an amazing project!
We discussed it earlier in this thread The conclusion that we came to is that the thread doesn't have to be stickied because it keeps itself alive...There is one last thing, doug, that is missing from your hack-a STICKY topic!!!
Good question...hey. you know the LC520 etc or the lc550 those boards have the 030 cpu still... they also have the rom slot decoldered, i wonder if those have the ability to boot from an 8mb simm
Hey, thanks! I've actually moved away from using a flux pen and I now use a syringe of Chip-Quik no-clean tack flux. It works extremely well, but it's also really sticky and disgusting so I clean it off with 99% isopropyl alcohol and even then the stickiness stays around for about a week. But the flux definitely does its job well...i would like to say i have 4 items from dougg3his soldering its pretty darn good, must have a steady hand, and a nice flux pen
lol from wikipedia, i like the codename.It was originally planned that the 840AV ROM would contain a bootable image of System 7 within a larger 4MB ROM space (codenamed SuperMario), but Apple dropped this idea before the 840AV shipped. Later revisions of the 840AV logic board included all 2MB of ROM soldered onto the logic board.
