An AEK parked in front of an SE/30 is a beautiful sight indeed. Like a Mini Cooper body on a GMC Jimmy frame, there’s no kill like overkill. I love pairing my AEK with my desktop-bound MBP via a drakware ADB dongle - deliciously anachronistic 😌 -PAGE BREAK- AEK PROS & CONS PROS: Just the...

Probably the best deal I heard all weekend, and there were some screamin' deals this year. Hope to see y'all at the Swap Meet on May 30th. This year we'll be taking over the Brookdale Community College parking lots - it's gonna be one for the record books! Buy some, sell some, fun for everyone :)

The easiest solution to your Genesis MP problem is, of course, to install BeOS R5. Remember, that machine is basically just a quad-CPU 9500. I wouldn't install anything newer than 8.1 on it, maybe 8.6. It's been decades since I had my hands on one of these, but I'd also see how things behave...

I beg your pardon? When did “G1” and “G2” enter the vernacular? It must be recently because it certainly wasn’t something anyone ever said either when these machines were still relevant, nor were these terms used in the G3-G4-G5 era. Or the Intel eta, for that matter. I could guess what you...
