Does anyone have a good backup of the Blackhawk ADB drivers? The only download I can find for them are from the MacintoshGarden site and the second disk comes up with errors no matter what machine I try them on.

Necroing the hell out of this thread, but I had a similar situation here. No matter what combination of partitions and filesystem I used with a few different drives and different versions of the disk tools, I could not boot my 631CD if there were *any* HFS+ partitions on the disk. I really...

Which of the DOS cards work in this machine? I'm guessing just the original Houdini?

Actually, a DOS card sounds pretty good. What part number or specific models can I look for to place in my Performa 631CD? Also, I read elsewhere that some of these cards came with a video out daughterboard that required a special slot on the mac board? What are the specifics about that?

Ok, well say I would like to use a vintage mac to transfer my old and dying VHS collection of family events and other such crap. What would the ideal system be to get the best remaining quality out of the tapes? What hardware and software combination would I be looking for?

Is there a list somewhere of what kinds of cards were available for the LC PDS slot? My particular machine is a Performa 631CD and I'm trying to find something to fill the slot with. I've already got a comm slot ethernet card so I don't need one of those, but for the most part, all I'm finding...

I just recently picked up a Performa 631CD and am adding the tv/video system to it. I've been thinking of maybe using it to transfer some older VHS tapes I have lying around, just as an experiment in old-schoolness. My question is, what are the capabilities of the system vs its limitations for...

Thanks for all the help. Actually, my eventual goal is to build my own 6502 based kit computer, but that's a loooooong way down the to do list. I've always been fascinated by the skill and vision needed to build something like a whole computer from scratch, and I hope to be able to do the same...

That's...disappointing to hear. I've always loved the look of the 1xx series, and the trackball is something I know I can get used to. Oh well, I guess I should try to find one locally so that I can try one on before committing. I really love the wallstreet I have, but I feel even that is mushy...

I've owned a few older Powerbooks. I currently only own a Wallstreet II, (Maxed out sweetness, 300mhz, 512mb ram, 14" screen etc). I've had a 1400, a 190cs, a 3400, but I've never owned, or even held in my hands, a 100 series 'book. I've been thinking of getting one of these old workhorses for...

I've decided I want to teach myself 6502 assembly. I've also decided I want to learn it on an Apple II vs any of the other home micros of the time. What I haven't decided is which II I would like to pick up for this purpose. I've narrowed my choices down to either a IIc+, a Platinum IIe, or a...
