just had a quick look while on the go here and mm I only have these small suggestions; shorten 'dual display capable' to 'dual display' perhaps 'memory' would be 'fixed vram' instead.. and add 'max vram' column to the right of above did pci cards always use svideo or just change that to 'tv'...

thanks, given their minimal market appearance in the first place I never ever knew much about the apple iii's themselves so at least it was nice to know about the floppies atm :-)

@chiptripper hm heh I did wonder about checking canadiantire but wasn't too sure of about what to look for as far as shank/handle thickness could be tolerated. I'll presume this is pretty much was the one in question...

@Nixontheknight looks like I'll have to get a t15 off a stranger somewhere else..assuming it didn't use a very fat handle on the top (as some very short screwdrivers commonly do) I should be ok with anything that has at least 4" of shank on it?

after having noticed an auction for apple iii business software - I just had to somewhat wonder if the apple ii and apple iii basically shared the same floppy drive mechanisms & filesystem or did the latter have any particular differences/incompatibility?

thanks will check about a long t-15 with someone else then as I only have the usual short length ones available to take, as for recapping yeah i'll indeed have to look at the present post-disassemble condition and see where to go from there cheers

I assume that the ram upgrade, if any were present, is simply pulled upward to get out right? and if any hdd was already there did that have to be removed first or not so much? and does the logic board really just simply slide out of the rear 'tool less ly', a little alike to how it does so on...

always been used to cd-booting up to till now, so seeing I don't even know much anything about booting disks on these kind of early systems I thought I'll ask here to be certain.. would one of the two 1.4mb images on https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/macintosh-system-6x or the first link under...

mm that does look convenient to find around, thanks. left a note to mention that in my possible list :-)

I know theres only so much one can do about thermals but mm anyway.. just wondering if a newer hdd would had been any improvement (as I know that sometimes when I compare scsi specs it seem like eg this extra-old drive needs 10.7w while the less-old drive of same capacity only needs 9.2w etc)...

just curious about this and excuse my somewhat limited wordings but - I presume that there is basically two charger controls aka the primary one onboard and the other one controlled by the os itself? noticed that the orange ring light at power cord end would switch to green for a moment while...

its a matshita cw-8124 as per the system profiler.. (and interesting enough while writing this I found out that the mini g4 used the same drive at at least one point?) just curious if it could had been simply switched with another slot-loaded slim drive or is there any particular...

hehe sorry @Apfelklassik.de I kinda had to want to ask a little early but :-p and thanks @sfiera that does seem to be exactly what it is expect a new ibook thread from me on the weekend especially when I get the four photos back from shared camera ;-)

sorry about a somewhat short thread topic but anyhow.. just wondering which language it possibly is for that particular keyboard which has a short left shift key as to fit a new umlaut-u key to the left of the z key and similarly it has a few special character keys around the iso return key...

@cheesestraws interesting writeup thats for sure and not to be too offtopic but regarding 'it changes and tries again' that sounds very alike to what I have heard of adb devices from somewhere several years ago? or to put it this way now: plug in two identical keyboards and at bootup the...

@LaPorta and wasn't there like a simple guest app for if you only wanted to use a zip drive for one day? (turn on with zip drive in morning or whatever then shut down before bedtime as to finally take the zip drive off. no need to permamently load the system extension folder with the iomegaware...

just kinda had this random thought while trying to look up something I recall about a supermac card (which turned out to be the e100) and mm I dunno what others think of crowding this kind of one-stop reference list for to help any owners with non-tower systems that has <=3 pci slots to squash...

what happened to two big eyes constantly stalking your cursor's location? ;-) (tbh I don't know which one the family macintosh had so many years ago for apparently macintoshgarden says theres at least four different ones compatible with for with system 7.5.x)

while I know its not exactly a 68k/ppc software its nevertheless easily available for more recent osx's nevertheless so I decided to try post about it here rather than in the lounge... just curious if anyone else here has tried this game as well? it rather is like evo/evn but in its own...

just adding what I know of myself.. 100 and 250 came in various internal&external flavours while 750 seem to be only either atapi or usb alone interestingly enough there were a small number of (infrequently one would show up on ebay I noticed) all-red firewire zip drives from vst themselves too...
