You might need two cables and a bridge device. I've never seen a 25-pin SCSI to 68-pin SCSI LVD cable. You may also want to check the Avolusion site for System 6-7 drivers although I'm putting my faith in SilverLining d2.

Lucky you! That HyperCard 2.3 package is really nice. I couldn't care less about shrinkwrap (although the little application is super) but there are some collectors of HyperCard who may very well be hyperventilating as I type.

This thing is bad news. I don't need it. It will consume probably far too much electricity. It will be loud. It will far too big for my wants (my needs have ĺong been met). But I wants it, my Precious. It has SATA to SCSI. I could put in 16x SSDs and have a wonderful RAID-10 system for my B&W...

Yours is the CV II listed near the bottom.

It very much depends on the refresh rate, I should think. It was almost certainly made with a specific monitor in mind from RasterOps. You could try an old 4:3 LCD monitor and see what luck you have. I like the ones from Eizo. Try looking up PDFs of old Mac magazines from 1988-1989 and look for...

That would have been one of the first cards for DTP-use on a 20+" monitor on a Mac II onwards. The RasterOps drivers can be found here: For System 6 https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/rasterops-108-driver For System 7.x https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/rasterops-graphics-system-software-168

I reckon that this site is good place to find RAM for a TAM. There certainly were some sites online which sold RAM for old Macs but I think that they have closed down. Memoryx.com was my go-to site but that was 10 years' ago.

I might be interested. There is also a member in Switzerland who may be very interested.

Just a thought: must the 400K floppy image be formatted in MFS to work on the 512K or will HFS also do?

I sometimes wonder if such topics would make for great Ph.D. theses: bringing old chipsets to life either through updating/rewriting old OSs or for new ones. The latter would require a massive investment in resources but the former might just be doable.

There's one on sale in Switzerland for CHF 150.—. https://www.tutti.ch/de/vi/basel/computer-zubehoer/komponenten-zubehoer/apple-studio-display-15-lcd-m4551/58317932 I was thinking about buying it so that I would have a DA-15 plus on an LCD screen but since I already have a Rev. 2 and the...

What you say may very well be true. Everymac.com does give me info on 1500MHz Mac Mini G4s though via the link above. And it has been accurate so far.

I always ask the seller of mac minis for the serial number before I even bid. I use this everymac.com to check the serial number: https://everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/ You may have difficulty getting a refund from eBay, given what you have done to the mac mini. If you just want a mac OS 9...

This site is good to know about too: http://www.applefool.com/se30/ If you have NICs in your two compact macs, then they can either be connected with a crossover cable or via a 10base T hub. The 10baseT hub/crossover cable is also a great way to get software on/off your compact mac. I have mine...

They are sloooow though. You may have a problem with more modern thumb-drives or drives over 4GB. I don't use USB thumbdrives per se, rather SD-cards and an old SD-card adapter and it may be the adapter, now that I write these words.

If I am correct, your 800MHz 14" iBook has FireWire and an ethernet port. 1. The option that I use is a Mac Mini G4 running Mac OS 9.2.2 (using the version from MTT on Macintosh Garden). Connect both your iBook & Mac Mini G4 to a hub or connect the two machines directly with a crossover cable...

I had long known that it wasn't possible but was not actually sure why. And it's nothing so simple as replacing a crystal for the bus-speed or getting a beefier PSU. Thanks for this.

What's the reason that a CPU from an MDD won't work in a Quicksilver or other G4? • Bus speed: 133MHz vs 167MHz? • Difference/incompatibility in the ROM? • Physical size: MDD card & heatsink won't fit? • Power draw: the power draw of dual 7455s is too much for the QS PSU? Or are there...

It worked! Thanks again.

If it fits into a PB1400, a 32GB 2½" IDE SSD might be another option, assuming the ATA-level isn't a problem.
