    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    I think youtube doesn't like links in comments, or it might be a per channel settings or something. Not sure. I did tell them what to google and who it was by :-) And yeah, that was a thing. Jobs really didn't like the Molar, despite it being a Johnny Ives-pushed design. Whatshisname, the guy...

    I compiled Mbed-TLS with Codewarrior 4 (attempting to make an HTTPS client)

    We do. Bottom left of the post next to report

    SDL2 for classic MacOS "rough draft"

    This is so insanely exciting. I'm working on a game in Godot and wanted to look into backporting it after I was done with it, and was *not* looking forwards to having to make my own renderer. Being able to use SDL2 will make it so much easier!

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    I used the Mouser cart link, of which there was only one for the Wings, so I'm assuming that's the combined version.

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Just an update - both the Whisper and the Wings seem to be working perfectly in 8.6 with the 9.2 USB extensions. Soft power with my iKey and all. Funny seeing a computer this old call a modern gaming mouse by name (my g400S). Thanks for all the assistance. If anyone wants a finished Whisper with...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Okay I've got my Wings card populated. It was a lot more work because it had SMD on both sides of the board, hunting for R182 and R183 in particular was a bear. Haven't tested yet but I see no reason it wouldn't work. I don't suppose you'd happen to have a schematic for the 5xxx front panel...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Ok so I got my Macally in and I can report that the soft power circuit is working fine. Sadly the AEK II caps aren’t quite compatible with the Macally, mainly the command and control keys are too wide and the shift keys use two sliders on the Macally while the AEK II uses a single switch and...

    I saw one of these on eBay. Blue with Japanese characters. Really pretty looking thing.

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Alright, here’s what I’ve done. I ordered a MacAlly iKey. I noticed they’ve had a whole bunch of keyboards with power buttons but I believe only the original iKey series and the iKey slim are configured to actually activate a Mac soft power circuit. Later ones seem to just do a ctrl+eject. It...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Because they aren't beige! While not beige this is extremely cool and I'll probably pick one up just to have. just found this while looking around on lowendmac https://www.ebay.com/itm/256573577651? Macsense UKB-600, slightly smaller than the Macally and far rarer, but with another full size...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    2 things: If I can get one that has a built in hub like Apple keyboards have, it lets me not use a USB card at all and still get a nice optical mouse without an interposer like an ADB Wombat or QuokkADB. And it's fun.

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    I saw some mumbling in a couple of old Apple support threads about a Griffin(I think) inline power button adapter. I’d probably break it out into a separate cable so that you could put the power button wherever you like. Or drill a hole in a generic beige keyboard to match the computer and add...
