    Networking a Mac Plus using info from mac128.com

    Okay, cool! Yes, I got the Keyspan USA-28x Twin Serial Adapter. I actually bought the one you linked in an earler post. I actually have a couple Imagewriter II cables, so it looks like I'm set. What's nice with this connection is it'll work for my SE's as well. I just wonder if you can...

    Networking a Mac Plus using info from mac128.com

    Okay, I've got the Keyspan USB to serial adapter in my hands. I have another set of cables acquired from a Mac Plus also off the 'bay. I'm wondering if this cable will work to finish this connection off. Mac128, would you mind looking at this and telling me if you think this will work or not...

    WORKING 2.3 GHZ DUAL G5 FOR $150!!!

    I was the first one to say "I kinda wanna hate you over news like that" but followed with a :beige: . My humor isn't always appreciated I suppose so I do want to make it clear the statement was more out of admiration for the find and less about hating anyone. That's a good find Mike and I'm...

    Would anyone be interested in recapping two SE/30's for me?

    The SE/30 I keep out and working 24/7 has very faint sound and I just acquired another SE/30 board but it gives the death chime. I'm going to test this board further but would anyone be willing to recap them for me? If so, how much?

    G4 Gigabit Ethernet - Power Supply Questions

    Thanks trag! I just made a pretty long post about not being able to get around the 28v "trickle" needed for this board. I actually screwed up and blew the stock PS, but I did my best to prevent it. I'm pretty sure this PS wouldn't run the card, just the card. It wouldn't do it with one hard...

    Networking a Mac Plus using info from mac128.com

    Well, I must have been really tired when I scoured eBay last night! Thank you for the link to that auction! As soon as my PayPal funds transfer, I'm going to buy that one up. I'd like to network the Plus as discussed on your site (wonderful site BTW!) because I do have a 512k and would love...

    Networking a Mac Plus using info from mac128.com

    Okay, I've got a nice Plus setting on a HD20 that I'd like to network with my G4 tower. I really like this site (www.mac128.com) and started following their outline to getting this Plus networked. I bought an entire computer to get the DB-9 to 8 pin DIN connector because prices for these new...

    My new conquest sounds like it's shearing sheep!

    Thanks guys, maybe I'll try to tame this fan instead of cutting it loose. Although I don't see how much good it can do I'll try to quiet it a bit and go from there.

    My new conquest sounds like it's shearing sheep!

    I nabbed this "MaxPlus" off eBay a few weeks ago. When the doorbell rang this afternoon I knew it would be my new Mac. I've just recently had a Mac Plus but have had an SE and an SE/30 for a long time, so that's what I'm used to. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3241/2302537130_28360c7b5d.jpg...

    Apple II color

    Wow, this is pretty amazing. Wouldn't it be nice to have our yellowed stuff looking new again.

    Old software

    Hmm, I was kind of hoping for a nice manual. I bought Defender of the Crown a few months back and it had an awesome manual. I forgot to remove the finder and system folder before I moved Dark Castle to my HD20 so my Plus started booting straight to Dark Castle. It freaked me out for a second...

    G4 Gigabit Ethernet - Power Supply Questions

    Yes Bunsen, thanks! I have an ADC to DVI adapter that allows an ADC to plug into the wall instead of drawing from the computer, so that would allow me to use ADC anyway, I suppose. If you don't mind, what power supply did you use? I'd like to not tamper with the case too much. Thanks!!!

    Old software

    Thanks for the links slomacuser, I downloaded them straight to my SE/30! It would be nice if someone wanted to make PDF's of the manuals to preserve them and share them on-line. I actually tried to win that eBay auction I mentioned above in attempt to do just that. Since it was a complete...

    G4 Gigabit Ethernet - Power Supply Questions

    After much deliberation, I've purchased a badly needed video card upgrade for my G4 GE. I bought a 128mb Radeon 9800 Pro PC edition. It isn't here yet but it's on the way. I've also got a few cards in the machine: Slot B: SCSI Card Slot C: 4-Port USB Card Slot D: SeriTek ATA Card It's...

    Dude, you've gotta e-mail me those Dark Castle images! Please!!! BTW, if you want to sell those games I saw Beyond Dark Castle go for over $100 on eBay the other day.

    iMac g3 wifi?

    I ran into this same problem about a year ago while working on an iMac Snow and my advice is to save the cash and buy an Airport card, which is what I ended up doing. I tried several different USB devices and the drivers were either non-existant or homemade and unstable. I think I still have...

    Questions about early Mac's

    Good grief man, your post made me feel like I stepped into a dream. You've gotta post some pictures when you're done.

    Questions about early Mac's

    Ed, you won't bother us talking about Macs. Especially compact Macs! There are several websites that detail the history of the Macintosh, though I'm not sure any of them would have answered your specific questions. Check out this Wiki link, it also has some good links about the Mac SE at the...

    There's an SE/30 near me...

    Well, you gotta throw some pics up for us to see. By dual floppies do you mean one is external? If it's internal I'd like to see that! Enjoy!
