What other Macintosh is it showing up on?  Maybe it was formatted as HFS+ instead of HFS?

Yup - AAUI (and the bigger-connector AUI) are "standard". You can use any AAUI adapter on any AAUI port.  (Just as you can use any AUI adapter on any AUI port. I've used an HP workstation AUI adapter on a NuBus AUI card on my Mac.)

SCSI tape drives all use the same basic protocol, so it should connect just fine - the trick will be software that supports your model of tape drive.  And old version of Retrospect backup would be your best bet.

That would work fine, although LS-120 drives don't support 400k/800k Macintosh floppies, only 1.4M.

That's the one I linked to.

Yeah.... CDs are CDs. Any system with a CD-ROM drive should be able to read any CD-ROM.  (With a few really oddball exceptions, but we won't get in to those.) If you mean "install the OS from a PowerBook restore CD on to a Power Mac G4" then it would depend greatly on which PowerBook restore CD...

It is not possible to write a 400k or 800k disk on any Power Mac G4 without extremely expensive and custom hardware.  I'm blanking the name of it, but there is a hobbyist who makes a controller that can interface directly with an old-style PC floppy drive and run its motor and read/write head...

No. The very earliest model of Power Mac G4 requires Mac OS 8.6.  Some of the latest models can't even run OS 9.2.2 natively, only OS X. Even the first generation of beige Power Mac G3 and the first Kanga "PowerBook 3500" PowerBook G3 require Mac OS 8.0 or later.  (Although through some...

Apple's display had a fixed resolution and refresh rate, with a horizontal frequency of 35 kHz, and a vertical rate of 66.7 Hz.  The original VGA standard was 31.4 kHz / 60 Hz, so not compatible with Apple's display timing.  That's also what basically every PC with a "VGA compatible" or "SVGA"...

I have three slots empty in my mini-rack just waiting for a G4, G5 and an Intel Xserve.  Now if only I could find them inexpensively...

No. In order to restore a backup, the new phone has to already be running the OS from the backup. That means if you upgrade to a new phone, and want to restore the backup, you have to make sure your OLD phone is on the newer OS the new phone ships with before restoring the backup.

Except Apple was fastidious about making sure that the disk only said double sided if it actually was.  Every Apple disk of that era I have either says nothing or "Single Sided" on the shutter if it's single sided, or "Double Sided" on the shutter if it's double sided.

You can use any speed of DDR2 memory, but the system will only run it up to 533 MHz (PC2-4200.)  This is almost universally true within a specific memory technology, as long as you are at the minimum speed, it will work.  Original, non-DDR SDRAM was available in 66 MHz, 100 MHz, and 133 MHz. ...

If you have a beige Mac, the IIc+ is good, because it has everything a "II series" needs in a very compact case, including a built-in 3.5" drive, so you can transfer files from a beige Mac easily.  And external 5.25" drives are easy to find to running most Apple II software. That or a IIgs...

:D

Isn't that what Apple Stores used for their POS devices until they replaced them with modified iPhones?

There was one Dominoes location (or was it a Pizza Hut?) that had a website for ordering around then. I'd be willing to bet the ordering online in the movie was a paid placement. Edit: Looks like it was Pizza Hut.

You can have more than 8 MB RAM, it's just that 24-bit addressing mode won't make much use of it - you can use the excess as a RAM Drive, though.

While I can't test on a 52/53/62/6300 because I don't have them, I have checked on System 7.1.2/PowerPC on a Power Mac 7100/66, and on multiple other PowerPC systems running various versions of 7.5.  No PowerPC has that section visible. Only Disk Cache, Virtual Memory, and RAM Disk.  Newer...
