Ok, I "believe" I made the change, but the behavior is 100% the same. I know what you should be thinking, "did he do it correctly this time?" Well, let's see, here are some not so helpful pics... http://www.retards.org/projects/retrochallenge/2008/Gallery/hq/img-13.jpg ...The black wire is...

Well I appreciate everyone's suggestions. I really didn't mean anything in particular. C, Pascal, Assembly... just curious what options exist. MPW and OrgASM or DASM looks interesting. So does Orca/c, but I can't find it anywhere. Thanks, Nathan

Here's a large photo of what I did, just in case I didn't do what you had suggested... http://www.retards.org/projects/tmp/DSC_0010.JPG I looked at the schematic for the analog board from your "Classic Mac Tech Info" document, but didn't see anything. I didn't expect to. I don't understand...

Tom, So I made the modification as you suggested (many moons ago) and ran into a "Gotcha". Curious what you think. As soon as I flip the switch to disconnect L1 from C2, the video goes out, but the floppy drive starts up. Not sure what it's doing, but it's trying to read a disk. Then, when...

Trust me, I know why we all have cabinets full of old cables. ;) Tucson isn't a very big city, but I can definitely get db9 and db25 null modem adapters at the one and only electronic parts store in town. It might be worth a look. Also, I don't really think the presence (or lack) of...

I've repaired coax cables with good success using aluminum foil and heat shrink tubing. One should be able to find a null modem adapter pretty easily and avoid having to use a hacked cable. Why is the lowest baud rate 57600? That doesn't make sense to me.

I completely agree. More festival than competition. I appreciate everyone doing their part to help it work.

I'm doing a mac plus mod and some system6/7 pascal coding. I don't promise much, and I deliver less.

Can I get all pouty about people *using* G4s and Windows 98? I don't really care, since I get to enjoy the challenge however I want, but in my mind, 10 years isn't long enough to be interesting. I'd make the "rule" 15 years. But like I said, it doesn't really matter, I follow the projects I'm...

10 years is 10 years Dr. Use it all you want. Good luck to everyone, especially you endurance fools. :p

Mmm, I was thinking that a summation of participants activities similar to the entries pages (except what they actually did) for each event was all that was needed, but seeing that the event sites are still available satisfies me. Maybe we just need links to them from the main site? I really...

You've obviously photoshoped your head onto some real TAM owner's body. Stop the lies!

Curious if anyone knows of any cross compiler or Apple II Dev tools that run on 68k macs? Thanks, Nathan

I don't think a "Hall of Fame" page is needed, but summaries of each year's participants/projects would be nice. Not too long ago I was looking for a link to one of last year's projects and had trouble finding it. I think "Winning" should be very under-emphasized when it comes to the...

stevep, that's not a very encouraging thread ;) Did you ever find a source?

Maybe someone will recognize this issue... Booted my SE, keyboard doesn't work, mouse does. Keyboard and mouse in separate plugs. Turned off SE. Plugged mouse into keyboard. Plugged keyboard into ADB port. Booted. Keyboard works, mouse does not. Turned off SE. Plugged in my number-pad /...

I'm with you ][2//. Nicely said. I also agree with Paws. I looked into phpBB to see if there was an API or a plugin that lets you get the data as XML, or make db queries. Didn't find anything. I was hoping to make a 68k client so I can keep up with 68kmla on my 68kmac. Oh well.

Thinking the Challenge was in June, I just rushed to get my entry in. Anyway, I haven't been around much lately, and am looking forward to the challenge in order to get me to focus back on some 68k stuff. Nathan

Ok, I've got a plus I'm willing to use as a guinea pig, but I won't get around to it until after April 3rd most likely. How will this impact heat? I was curious, what parts of the plus are generating the most heat? The CPU? CRT? Wouldn't that be another limiting factor for using a plus as a...

You're waiting!?!? I'm waiting for you to get around to it! :p But seriously, I really am. I think it would be a grand contribution to the community. Nathan
