    4x ethernet port card for G4 ???

    This G4 looks to have a 4-port ethernet card in it. I know that Cisco made similar cards but for the Mac? Does anyone know about these cards and are they supported in Mac OS 9?

    SCSI for Dummies Thread - How to properly use SCSI

    I was thinking of myself when I got back into macs in 2009. I had some knowledge but the more modern stuff alluded me. This was as much a message to me then as it is to people new to the hobby. SCA-drives are admittedly rarer and pricier than back in 2009.

    SCSI for Dummies Thread - How to properly use SCSI

    I would add to this: • There are various kinds of SCSI plugs but they essentially fall into 2 categories: a. Single-Ended (SE) — the original kind and all built-in SCSI in Macintoshes uses this. Essentially it uses 25-pin or 50-pin plugs. b. Low-Voltage Differential (LVD) — operates...

    @rabbitholecomputing Would you consider doing these for the 040 PDS or is that an exercise in frustration?

    Calling all owners of rare ADB devices!

    I'll update the online list over the weekend. I've made a quick inventory of my non-Apple ADB peripherals and this is what I've found. • Kensington Turbo Mouse #64100 2-button ADB Trackball • Macally Keyboard MK-105x • Umax Keyboard • Quark Dongle 102078 • Quark Dongle 102079 • HASP...

    Looking for Jaguar PowerMac G5 edition distro

    And? Do you notice much of a difference? Is the G5 more responsive in 10.2 than in 10.3? I have a 2.0GHz 2003 G5 that I must try this system on.

    The Manhole

    It is diffusing into a Monty Python-esque silliness, which I am not against. It just needs a bishop and it will be almost complete. I have also learnt about the SDUK and their lovely maps.

    The Manhole

    This is what interests me at the moment: the Atlas Suisse — a trigonometrically surveyed map of Switzerland from 1802 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_Suisse https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_Suisse — the maps themselves can be found in the links at the bottom of this page I also...

    The Manhole

    I have posters too. I would hang them up if I had any space left. I like old maps and I have reproductions of early 19th century maps on my walls.

    Patched 6.0.8L for more Macs

    @johnklos mentioned many moons ago he had gotten System 6 to run on his Quadra 700, so it does seem to be possible.

    The Manhole

    I picked this up on a local auction site recently. It is a CD from 1989. Isn't it beautifully laid out?

    Thunderbolt on Mac OS 9

    Maybe. My logic was that if the Thunderbolt » FireWire cables were bi-directional, then the FireWire extensions would be the drivers. Would NVMe bring more than simple SATA SSDs? Wouldn't the PCI or SCSI bus simply be flooded? Thanks for this post. There is food for thought there.
