The link for the modified A2SERVER, which runs on a Pi up to the 3B+, is here if you're interested.

This should work, as I was able to get my IIe card to connect to a modified A2SERVER with my BlueSCSI a while back. I believe the emulated IIe Workstation Card just uses whatever AppleTalk connection you have set up on the Mac side of things.

Chris Swan, author of Black Night terminal program, has signed onto the BBS! He describes why Black Night was the best terminal program in the 90's and still works great today. He also talks about how he came up with the name (and no, it's not a play on White Knight). Check out post #76 in...

Will Price, the original programmer for Hermes BBS who recently reacquired it, just signed onto the BBS. Come join us and learn about the early days of Mac BBS'ing!

The Crow's Nest BBS, running Hermes II v3.1.1 on my 40 MHz 68040 Carrera-accelerated Mac IIci with six wifi modems hooked up to a CSI Hurdler II 4-port serial NuBUS card, is back for #MARCHintosh2025! What's new this year? Downloads have been updated with the latest vintage Mac software...

I'm still in touch - he had to evacuate during the Palisades Fire. Luckily his home survived but he wasn't going to be able to move back in for several weeks, so probably no new updates anytime soon. Speaking of Hermes, I'm planning on putting my 6 node wifi-modem Hermes BBS up again for...

Even better than grayscale! :)

Sweet setup! Now you just need one of ZigZagJoe's or Bolle's grayscale cards - ANSI emulation looks much better. :love:

It looks like we're both in the US so I'm willing to send it back and forth for testing on my PowerMac 7600.

I recently received this broken 500 MHz Sonnet Crescendo in a purchase with another working accelerator, and I'm wondering if anyone might be able to fix it? There's a free working 400 MHz Sonnet Crescendo Z-PPCG3C-B in it for ya if you can! One of the PI53 bus switches has been mangled with...

Who's your mechanical father?! Level 50 took me MANY tries to get through, so thanks for making Level 51 easy. And awesome job with the game - I haven't had this much fun on a vintage Mac in a quite a while!

Now I'm stuck on Level 43 - I've looked under every item but no roller skates... :(

That definitely had me stumped - thanks for the help!

Ok, what am I missing at the end of Level 35? It's physically impossible to complete! 🤬

I would recommend going with a PiSCSI - netatalk and CUPS are a breeze to install with the easyinstall.sh script. And you'll get a SCSI emulator out of the deal too!

The 0.28 and 0.33b3 rom sets are available for download from the CQ AppleTalk file server (they're too big to d/l from the BBS) in the Emulation folder at afp://cqbbs.ddns.net if anyone is interested. Make sure to leave a message in the "I was here" folder if you get on!

Ok, that's pretty cool - thanks for keeping the old arcade games alive!

Wait - are you involved in the MAME project? And yes I've noticed several bugs in v0.28 games including only getting one life despite the DIP switches being set to 3. But I wanna play the games in System 7 so I'll just have to put up with 'em!

Glad I could get you a couple of new users! ;)

Thanks for the suggestion, but I brute-forced it by unzipping several different versions of the roms, deleting "Folder" from each of the folder names, and then seeing if they loaded up MacMAME. Not a quick process... I found the mother lode of roms today on the System7Today Hotline server of...
