Does "nbplkup" run on the server show up the 605 as a workstation?

Can the propeller work from a 62.6688Mhz clock? If so it's sampling can synchronised with the mac's pixel clock at four times. Alternatively, can it not use a 78.336Mhz clock? So instead of a 5Mhz clock, give it a 4.896Mhz clock derived from the Mac's crystal.

I received an external Firewire drive with mine, unfortunately it's a CD, not DVD. You used to be able to get Tiger on CDROM, the gig was you bought the DVD then returned it for CDs.

I thought Basilisk-II did networking at the ethernet frame level, not using OS mapped drives.

I presumed he was running BasiliskII on the MacOSX box.

So that would be the 512ke that (a) did not have a SCSI port and ( B) came out after the Mac Plus. So apart from those problems, that would make it the first Mac with SCSI. :scrambled:

that would be a Macintosh Plus I think, not 512ke.

For example I have a "System 7.5 network install CD", you need a lower version and basically do an upgrade. I recommend find the magic SCSI adapter, I acquired one a couple of years before I acquire my 1400 and was very grateful for it when I needed it!

Does the SE have an ethernet port? If not, do you have a localtalk to ethernet adapter? If not consider using PPP and a serial link.

The original 68k Palms were actually Coldfire CPUs. They were programmed with CodeWarrior. If you look at the internals of PalmOS you can see it's Macintosh heritage.

And so did the original IBM PC, it divided the clock by three ( with a two to one mark to space ratio ) to give the familiar 4.77Mhz.

It divides evenly (ie by integer) to generate baud rates. But I imagine the pixel clock was an important reason, eg given the horizontal scan time, how many pixels you want to show etc.

Serial comms, disk controller, localtalk all derive from the same clock as far as I know. So if you don't want the Mac Plus to reliably read and write floppies....

Surely bus mastering is about allowing the DMA controller to be on the card rather than on the motherboard. I have no idea what "dodgy C programmers" has to do with anything.

Apart from Code Warrior is PowerPC/68k and C/C++ where as Think C is 68k and C only? Symantec C++ is both PPC and 68k.

Yes.

Yes, but it doesn't provide the MacIP gateway.

Most definitely, I have it running on Mac(68k +ppc), also win32, AIX and OS/2! I am in the process of doing an open source version matching the original IDL and have a workable version that runs on Linux and modern Win32.

Classic macintosh programming is both an art and a pig. The goal is to make things easier for the user, not the programmer. The programmer has one hell of a job writing an app that both solves a problem, looks good, is consistent and has AppleScript support. Languages were 68k assembler and...
