I haven't seen that one specifically, but I've seen a few like it. It's a whole lot easier when you don't have to worry about putting in a SCSI to IDE adaptor :)

Here's the URL to those IDE flash cards: http://www.transcendusa.com/Products/ModDetail.asp?ModNo=26&LangNo=0

b'n'B....bits 'n' bytes...stick a big G in front of that and it's still a big number :D The ones we are using are only 1GB (our XPe OS is only 300MB so there was no need to go bigger), but they are available up to 4GB and I guess 8GB is on the horizon... 1GB cards are costing us about $35...

You can get 'flash cards' with an IDE socket on them already - meaning that once you sort out the SCSI to IDE adaptor, you don't need a CF card adaptor as well. Just plug in what looks like one of ye olde SCSI terminators (seriously it's like the size of the IDE connector x2) and away you go...

LOL! :D

oh yeah, and it's always a fun suprise seeing what you actually get. I got a "mixed bunch" of 500 series PB's once. One of them had a PPC board in it [:D] ]'> Out of 5 or 6 powerbooks I got 500PPC in excellent condition, and a 520c and 520 in pretty good condition - the rest was just junk.

geez i screwed that up.... meant to 'reply' and i accidentally edited this post instead...so now it makes no sense in the context of this thread... Origainally I said that "i reckon it's a dual card...but I could be wrong..." And my reply was that 'yes I'm often wrong...' now where's that...

I've always found 040's to be very robust - I had a Q605 server up for about 3 months straight with a 25mHz 68040 overclocked to 33mHz, I pulled the fan (coz it was too noisy), no heat sink, another two Q605's in the same stack plus a monitor sitting on top (so minimal air flow). When I did the...

Quadraman was correct - it's 640k

Exactly!

I always found OS9.0-9.1 to be just as quick as 8.6, without the bloat of the 9.x.x updates.

heh heh linux can suck sometimes :D I like th efact that all the new (er) versions are 'complete' and don't require too much to get up and going.

Hello from number 51 it's great to be back. I did like the 404 errors - beats a M$ jet error any day! ;)
