    Motorola 68060 upgrade

    Just for random kicks, why not just emulate the 68060 and all necessary adaptions inside the FPGA? Even better, emulate both the 68040 and the 68060 in the FPGA and find a way to route all 68040 operations to the 68040? While your at, find a way to use them as some kind of dual-core setup that's...

    Add an additional linux computer and install netatalk (http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/) hook the printer to that and use it to share the printer to everything on the network.

    Good buddy, good junk = good conquest

    On that topic, maybe someone should bug that guy and find out whether his program works is adaptable.

    Good buddy, good junk = good conquest

    I can vouch for IrDA working between an iMac G3 and an eMate 300, at least for package sending. It's not particularly flexible, but you can use IrDA Package Installer (http://jerome.vernet.pagesperso-orange.fr/Softs/IrDAPack.sit) by Jerome Vernet if you only want send packages to the Newton...

    Apple //e with Monitor, Unidisk, Software and Manuals

    Nice. Looks better than mine, which has some yellowing on it. Wish I had it with me here at school. I think the one I have has 2 unidisk 5.25 drives (daisy chained of course). That and it'd be nice to have more disks, since mine has a super serial card as well (easy to transfer disk images with...

    Macintosh IIVX and important lesson

    Next time, cover up those important labels with painter's tape or something to avoid removing them

    ThunderScan for Apple II

    You did read the first linked article in the first post of the thread, indicating that the software supported scanning on the printhead's return movement as well, right? Granted, the sacrifice of some quality for speed.

    eMate connection to Performa 5215CD

    If you are going to use a Compact Flash card, you will want the Kallisys ATA driver for the eMate (http://www.kallisys.com/). You can connect the newton to a PC serial port (db-9) if you have a proper (special for Newton eMate?) Mac serial a.k.a. Localtalk (din- 8) to PC serial (db-9) cable...

    New monitor at work has Composite vid-in.

    Haha. My Apple IIe is at home, but it has a color composite monitor. By the way, the video output from those looks quite nice on a decent 23"-25" CRT television.

    Apple Legacy CD

    Someone needs to set up a site to collect links to these things and maybe rank/label them in order of most to least legally bothersome (so that no one else will feel the need to). Obviously Apple should be less of a pain in the ass, and just make this stuff available on an as-is, unsupported, no...

    Why no NeXT section?

    Ah, but you forget that it's the 68kmla, not the Steve Jobs fan club.

    Is this possible??

    You certainly can't run anything inside the NewtonOS as it's structured very strangely. You'd need either new ROMs or some kind of bootloader that could load linux from the newton os (very unlikely given that the newton os has no design for that). Presumably you'd basically have to redesign...

    CRT Hack

    Any chance of a picture? I'm kinda curious how bad it is. Not sure how you would convert the VGA to the monitor's inputs. You can try reading the pages noted over here: http://www.tuaw.com/2006/02/06/mac-mini-inside-classic-mac-update/ but you'll probably need to run them through google...

    Unidentifiable NuBus Card

    The raster part probably refers to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics, which is a way of drawing stuff on a screen. Don't why they'd need to say that, I think raster is the way things work right now? Maybe that was a change or improvement at the time or maybe they simply wanted...

    I got a free TiBook today

    Might need to be warmer, read of at least one person using a tea candle holder with burning alcohol to heat the solder on an ibook with a loose gpu problem.. You might try more heat and maybe trying to find a way to apply constant, steady pressure from the time it's hot enough to help til it's...
