    You have: AAUI to 10BASE-T ethernet adapter (aka a MAU). You need: regular AUI. A hack...

    ...now I wish that I had kept all the CentreCom adapters I had from my HP-UX workstations, instead of just the four adapters that I still have. I got a pallet of HP735s back in the day - sorted them down to around 10 fully upgraded units and eventually gifted those all to a coworker learning...

    What I've received as of late...

    That is terrific! Very capable machines.

    If you could bring back classic Mac OS software, what would it be?

    You betcha! ...a chance to trot out one of my favorites from Scott Adams.

    If you could bring back classic Mac OS software, what would it be?

    Snial (WindowShade) and LaPorta (Stable, Unbloated, Simple Mac OS) took both of my wishes!

    Ambrosia Software legacy continues with Decoder Ring

    I still have my codes - copies of copies of copies, moved from one machine to another, ...then to VM's which were moved from one machine to another, and now? All the pressure is finally off, what a relief! I had no idea that there was a group, and that was pretty cool to find out as well. If...

    Quadra 950 (Delta SMP-291AB) Power Supply Recap

    Do you have a list that you can pass along? I have the same PSU, if you would care to share.

    1710av fading away (any hope for saving, or retrofit?)

    I did not even know this 'Rejuvenation' was a thing. Yesterday I saw one of the CRT rejuvenators for $150 and thought it might be a useful acquisition given the aging population of CRTs. Are these a scam? Do they really work? If so, for what use cases?

    I got one of those just about a month-and-a-half ago (the machinery damage letter) - I only lost a couple of replacement floppy gears out of several that I ordered.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I love those monitors - the rounded controls and the overall look of the monitor dressed up anything they were paired with! That is one of my favorite background patterns as well.

    Here? In a small town?

    I did not see it mentioned - did it come with the keyboard and mouse included? If not, I would definitely hit up the "Apple Collector" to provide you with ones (gratis) for the system you bought.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have a M1212 to use (also a couple M0401s, but I prefer the stand on the 1212) with it, but I also have a Dell 2007FPb that I use as a general purpose monitor with my Macs. I can also see why they didn't add any VRAM to it back in the day.

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have the floppy drive cleaned/lubed (solid, flexible gear, so I get to keep the original!). There were SO many dust bunnies inside the plastic enclosure it was hard to see the drive in spots. ;) I also removed and readied the yellowed panels (front pieces and side cover) to be retrobrited...

    Scored a Q950 today!

    Yes, I got only one, but it turns to all the stops, which indicates that it matches the machine's barrel? I think it is number 064... I'm going to dig out the top bracket tonight (along with the HD and floppy) and also try to see if there are any VRAM sticks in it. Thanks all!

    Power Mac G3 Beige Desktop – CD-ROM door sticking.

    You might have this sorted already, but it is either broken plastics or (more likely) it is just inserted wrong into the attachment guide (plastic frame, under the CD), You should be able to just push gently upward on the middle tab that is protruding slightly under the CD and pull the CD...

    Scored a Q950 today!

    I have always wanted a Quadra 950, but they were always out of reach, especially lately, with the elevated prices and potentially disastrous shipping. So today, I drove three hours to Alabama, to avoid the shipping issue, and paid an acceptably low price for one. It has fantastic plastic (it...
