    Great find on that TAM, what a lot of goodies inside. Are you going to clean up and keep the TAM itself? I'm curious how had the speaker grills are to clean.

    I have not tried in OS X (this only has OS 9 installed right now.)  Thank you for that link, that is a TON of info. I've tried to wade through and try a couple different drivers but so far no change. Gotta keep working.

    It does say 'Apple Studio Display' in the title bar, so it knows that much. I'm just using ADC direct from the video card, I think it's a rage 128. No brightness slider, though...so you're right, maybe its not being detected right. No way to adjust refresh rate.

    Recently picked up G4 Cube from another member on here...what a machine! My 17" ADC Studio display that has been sitting around now has a purpose. Only thing that is odd is it works great in 1280x1024 and 640x480, but anything inbetween I get a screen like this: Now, my memory may be fuzzy...

    One of my old computer collection rules for myself is that everything has to have a purpose or a job...which is really so that I don't just buy All The Old Macs. I have found since my 6500 jukebox my nearby Color Classic isn't doing much. I'm trying to think of a way to use it as a part of my...

    I really like SoundJam. It has Shuffle By Album, even so long ago, it still baffles me why Apple never had built in on iOS.

    Well the World's Most Overcomplicated Jukebox is fully functional: I've got 40 GB of MP3's that play great through SoundJam MP.  iTunes 2 is really unstable with a library of that size in Mac OS 9. (SoundJam is...relatively stable). Spotify plays via sound-in on the iPad mini. WhiteCap works...

    Performa IR remote iTunes

    I've been searching but I can't find anything yet. Maybe someone remembers if there was ever any bits of software to 'remap' the Performa IR remote commands?  I have a remote, it works great and the play pause buttons work in AppleCD Audio player...but i'm wondering if there's anyway to make...

    Well, my 6500 jukebox project continues. I purchased a cheap IDE-SATA adapter, and copied the 6500's system and 60 gb of mp3's to a 120 GB SSD I had lying around... It boots, but the performance is not great. It takes minutes to boot (sitting on the Happy mac for ages), and seems to be really...

    This 6500 has a couple quirks, I purchased it from a member on here, and the internal video does not work, but it happily displays video via a PCI Rage 128 card. But it seems that the video-in hardware does not work without functioning internal video - launching Apple Video Player will play...

    A 6500 has joined the party, displacing the Macintosh-TV-in-a-575, at least for now. I also picked up separately a remote, does any one know if it's possible to remap the play/pause buttons to work in iTunes v2 ?

    Viewing video in on a 6500

    I have a recently acquired 6500...I just thought I'd see if I could hook a game console up to the video in just to see about viewing or capturing for fun. But I launch the Apple Video Player and I don't see anything other than the controls window with an MPEG button and a sound button...am I...

    PowerBook 2400c questions

    Sorry, I missed your question here. I actually...don't remember exactly what I did. But my 2400c is on 8.6 right now. I seem to recall doing a clean install of 8 - 8.1 - 8.6 on a different CF card than I was originally using, rather than moving System Folders back and forth. But I didn't write...

    Brought a PowerMac 8500 back to life, including an unexpected Netscape time-capsule

    I really enjoyed the cached netscape home page. That was a neat touch.

    ADC video card that works for 6400 ?

    This has been a great discussion....bascially, I need to get a cube. :-)  I mean, I'd hate this monitor to go to waste.  Fortunately, ScutBoy has already been in touch about a potential one.

    ADC video card that works for 6400 ?

    I realized in I have a 15" ADC connector LCD just sitting around, not doing anything. Is there a thing as a PCI video card with an ADC connector that could work in a 6400 series?  Or is the old external ADC adapter the only way to go? (well, or buying a g4 cube... ;-)

    You can do usb in 8.6 so there’s that.

    $35 for a 270c is a great deal! Nice find. And yes, the duo keyboards were pretty awful. And tended to go bad.

    ...maybe the color classic's massive power supply just outputs SO MUCH POWER it would work sometimes  ;-)
