What doesn't make sense? You seem to understand what I said. What Steve Jobs showed at the Shareholders meeting is not what was sold to customers. Period. In fact the 512k wasn't even available until 9 months later. I'm not bashing 128k, if anything I'm justifying why the Mac in the auction that...

JDW, thank you for clarifying what you were saying. As I said I didn't "follow" what you were saying. I certainly did misinterpret this statement: I (somehow) thought you were agreeing with kallikak about finding the whole "collectibility" thing nuts. As he rebutted to my original post. Sorry...

:?: I don't quite follow you. All I did was comment on how UNUSABLE the 128k Mac was and how this upgrade was done years ago by someone who needed more functionality. Steve Jobs could not have done his demo with the machine he was selling to consumers. I still maintain that upgrading it TODAY...

I a lot of cases I agree with you. This, however, is not one of those cases. I'm not saying you are wrong and you can certainly do as you please with your own machines. It would be interesting to see what you can do with an upgraded TRS-80. I generally tend to keep my computers stock...

Even Steve Jobs used a 512K in his demo of the original Macintosh. That's how little you could do with 128K of memory. People upgraded these just to make them functional. Upgrading one today would make no sense at all because of it's collectibility as a stock unit.

Disk Copy 6.3.3. Disk Copy 6.3.3 is a fat binary so it will work on PPC and 68k. It requires System 7.0.1. Keep in mind that you may need a second hard disk to save the HD image to. Disk Copy 4.2 works with system 6.

Thanks for the input, this helps a lot!

I have a question. The following is from the A/UX FAQ: External monitor? :?: Is this statement intending to say "add-on video card"? Any IIci monitor will, of course, be external. This just happens to the exact configuration that I have: A/UX 3.0.1, IIci, and a cache card. Could someone...

In high school I wrote a couple programs with At Ease in mind. The first was in my BASIC class. I wrote a QuickBASIC program to delete the At Ease preferences file. Then I could restart the computer with no security. The second was actually approved by the school to be installed. I used...

Nice little machine. I picked up one a few months ago for $5. Mine has an ethernet card too!

Nope, 2004 was a good year after my last post in the old forums. It funny, this go-round in the forums I have almost as many posts in less than a month than I did in my entire previous stint. LOL... I've found that it's usually more enjoyable to have good-natured discussions and debates than to...

I remember the good ol' days on the MacAddict vintage forums (though, I didn't join the 68kmla until June 2002). Really surprised me when I came back last month how many of the originals aren't around any more.

I am in the process of going through all of my computers, floppies, and CD's and archiving all of the software to a hard drive. I have an 80 GB Firewire HD connected to my beige G3, which has an internal Zip drive. I am using my external SCSI Zip drive to archive the HD's of my old computers and...

Here's where you can learn about feets. :) http://danamania.com/605/design.html

They are about the same height.

Without a doubt the 475. If you ever get the chance to pick up a Quadra 605, then use that. Best. Pizza box. Ever.

Hi Torbar, nice to meet you!

Mine, for example has 4 input sources. I don't have a problem with the monitor at all... it just hurts my Apple fanboy image a bit when people come over and see Darth Vader's monitor on my desk. No one used to comment on my 20" Mitsubishi DiamondTron, but EVERYONE has something to say about the...

... or the 20" LCD I got for free, though it is a Dell.
