    sorry, I'm feeling very silly today. No personal reflection meant, of course.

    Oh, that's your signature. Never mind then. Correction: ignore fink's signature ;-)

    Ignore fink :-p The 640CD specific restore CD is on the Macintosh Garden; did you use that?

    Looking for: Lapis ColorServer PDS/30-14 Drivers Updated 32bit-clean Firmware?

    What OS version are you running? Lapis cards have a bit of a reputation for their extensions not working properly above 7.1

    Setting up a PC Trasporter on a IIGS

    Yaaay!. Sorry, I do have a mild obsession with GEM.

    Artetech Intermedia Disk Controller - what's that?

    I'd recommend reading the website that @lobust linked, which contains quite a lot of the history of the company. This was apparently a product for design/print bureaux, to allow them to deal with text and floppy disks from all the weird computers and word processors that their authors might be...

    Artetech Intermedia Disk Controller - what's that?

    any chance of a link to the auction? that photo doesn't show the connector, and that's important because: Oh that site is very useful, tells us exactly what's going on here, I suspect. The "disk controller board" on that page is a floppy controller board for data interchange for typesetting...

    Artetech Intermedia Disk Controller - what's that?

    Did you mean to link to or attach something here? I can't see what picture you're referring to

    Anything to be gleaned from this PB160 photo?

    Nothing to say about the screen but just wanted to agree that the trackball is cool

    Power Conversion Question 120 to 240v AC

    It's a switch-mode power supply in there, so frequency really doesn't matter. I do the opposite for a couple of machines with 120V PSUs.

    Read/Write PRAM and xPRAM

    Setting the byte at INIT time won't be soon enough for some things unless you reset the machine immediately afterwards so it picks up the new values. This is why, for example, Force32 reboots the machine as soon as it's twiddled the xPRAM. The same is true of the AppleTalk interface: the PRAM...

    found a interesting artifact in a Mac SE

    Not sure what CPU you're talking about? The DP8341N is the 3270 receiver, datasheet here: https://www.smichips.com/datasheets/1/e9/e9db/e9db668b4a6e40d5a655cd943d90dc55.pdf. Its output appears to be a parallel bus, not serial, which would account for the bus drivers.

    Chop Orinoco Silver PCMCIA card into Airport slot

    I think you're confusing WiFi generation and encryption standard here. The problem isn't so much there aren't any 11g drivers as that the OS 9 WiFi stack does not support WPA(2) even over 11b. Not true. Let's think about what the risk actually is in this situation. Risk is the result of...

    Using a AI service to assist with classic mac programming

    Also, note that if you ask people here to fix your AI-generated code, they will get annoyed with you.

    Integrated Tashtari Machine: Floppy Drive Emulator

    macOS does what it always does, when you erase a block device it will default to the previous filesystem but let you choose another. It won't stop you creating a GUID / HFS+ filesystem on an SD card, though the result will be of somewhat limited use. I have used this, though, to transfer mac...

    Se/30 with booster, synchr030 and zzj video

    LCDs, at least relatively modern ones, tend to be better for eyestrain - if you're using the machine a lot for real stuff, this is also worth bearing in mind.
