I had thought software emulating would indeed be taking a hit but perhaps it look like could be more than what I had initially guessed at. but hmm yeah software is just software I won't mind eventually giving it a try and see what happens, as if it doesn't work out then theres always the trash...

sstaylor I had not thought of there being two different kind of bridges to choose from, at least now I know to be mindful of that if I ever actually looked for real!

just wondered if appletalk was required or you don't have to install such card option to be able to use the printer with any of these third-party ethernet bridge?

if you were on a 200mhz pci powermac and didn't have too much background things (extra extensions especially) loaded, would the emulation performance perhaps be similar to a 120mhz pentium or close? the guest os would had been windows 95, running simple desktop apps or 'slower' games (I mean -...

unknown_k's right, its not always easy to tell in auctions so since they're not expensive I may nevertheless decide if I want try bid on two of them as the chance of both being avid-specific ones is not too big hopefully the only one thing I could maybe slightly warn about targa 2000 kits tho...

I was sure I had seen this one before while I was initially trying to sort what video card I could like trying track down (which atm has been shortlisted to just targa) http://macintoshgarden.org/apps/miromotion-dc30-and-dc30plus-drivers looks like it pretty much works in anything that has pci...

just as a small footnote, MP850 is basically also MP750 as the two were identical except for differing vram size and you're not the only one asking as it would seem unfortunately http://macintoshgarden.org/forum/macintosh-garden-wanted-list?page=1#comment-54973 but anyhow as for that card in a...

had to wonder if these indeed are as hotswap as any disk/syquest/zip/etc drives would be basically? just thinking a bit here about using old camera via media card alone instead of bothering with trying to keep a serial port free for the normal sync cable usage otherwise

dv I used to play that particular game for a while a long time ago. in that case Iperhaps won't mind trying an unofficial remake of it as who knows! (and not being negative or anything but this http://macintoshgarden.org/games/galactic-empire would be a better link to refer to in the future)

the 64bit extension of pci slot is basically its own de-facto key so its no surprise that a pci64 card can physically slot into any voltage-same pci32 slot, as long as any pcb components/headers doesn't get in the way like phipli was saying. unlike with pcie where theres no keying so hence you...

I'm somewhat not sure (but I could be wrong given I have very limited experience with this) because I still have to hold down the c key to get the system to start from the performa disc instead of the hdd. or perhaps the ide&scsi mismashed logic boards are somewhat excluded from a singular boot...

not to bring this topic up again but I'm for now simply asking if some multi-protocol transceiver chip eg alike to this random sample https://www.maxlinear.com/product/interface/serial-transceivers/multiprotocol/dual-protocol/sp330 would had easily made for a no-fuss connectivity conversion...

thanks as I somehow had forgot that the voltage levels could be different, hm well I'll see if I want to get around to trying it or otherwise pinch an old laptop just simply for that serial setup

if only rxd/txd/0v was required to interface with a certain preloaded mcu, is it plausible that that would work through mac's rs422-type serial as well? I know I'll still have to see about actually being able to write something onto to it that way, but so far the pdf seem to suggest that its...

romotchka at least your problem thankfully was completely the opposite of a rather silly 'murphy law offshot' which stated this: there is no problem that the right amount of thermonuclear can't fix (although I can't imagine what a computer of any sort would look like after a tiny fusion flask...
