    Sony MP-F75W-01G oscilloscope debugging

    Yes, when cleaning heads, the most you ever want to do is keep the drive in the up position, and stick a q-tip with IPA in between them and sweep back and forth. That's it. Don't move the head up.

    Fast! CompactFlash for Macintosh PDS/NuBus

    Regardless of whatever political stuff there is, just build it and price it with the margin you want above cost, and we will buy it. It costs whatever it costs.

    How long until we see enhanced mac motherboard recreations?

    I think for most of us, it’s the Macs themselves, not the software, that are the prized objects.

    SE/30: Can't boot to desktop - "disk initialization failed because the disk is locked"

    Yes, I would check the Bournes first: check the resistance value of each resistor in the pack vs. the values in the Pina guides.

    Cloning a PowerBook 100 HD

    Generally they are amenable to USB power, yes. I think this might be the easiest way for him to go rather than a larger setup.

    Cloning a PowerBook 100 HD

    Other option: if you can get an external BlueSCSI or equivalent, and adapter cable for the 100, just mount that on the 100 and use Disk Copy to make an image of the drive onto that.

    Macintosh LC randomly lost color

    Also, if the PRAM battery is not installed, it will default to B&W every time it is turned off.

    SCSI diagnosis: Easiest way to make a read-only boot disk (ZuluSCSI or MacSD)

    Why not start up another machine with some other disk, hook up the MacSD/ZuluSCSI to that machine, and in Mac OS using a utility, make the disk read-only?

    8100 Magnetek PSU - does the fan always run?

    Yes, the 8100 fan normally runs the entire time the system is on.

    Introducing ZuluSCSI Blaster - now with More Cowbell!

    Sorry, I will restate: assuming the Mac in question natively supports HFS, will this be able to mount the emulated devices?

    Introducing ZuluSCSI Blaster - now with More Cowbell!

    So does that mean that Macs can mount the emulated devices on the SD card as native HFS disks?

    Any fun/interesting apps or games to show off Mac OS X 10.1?

    Red Faction will work. I also like Quinn (Tetris clone) if you can find a copy. Many of the Little Wing pinball games will work as well.
