This may be the most frustrating computer ever. Apparently it was a demo mode, and even has all the store demo software on it. Actually pretty cool. But I digress...
I decided to try to modify the IDE drive. Its the only thing on this stupid machine that works. I wanted to see if it would allow me to update from 7.5.3 (that
s what it has) to 7.55 or 7.6.1. Of course not. Using my floppy emu, when I get to the part where you choose a disk, I am unable and it tells me that "Installer Disk did not recognize this Macintosh. Please use the disks that came with the computer.' Great. Of course I don't have the disks that came with the computer. Anyone know how to get around this annoying thing? Is it a copyright issue and I have to lock the disks that are on my floppy emu? I have no idea. Please let me know if you do.
