Hi all! I have a PowerBook 145 that's been running 24/7 for the last year or so, serving pommel-s.ch, a website about my collection (down at the moment, obviously). Yesterday I noticed the site was down. I checked the PowerBook, only to found she had crashed, and the lower half of its screen...

Thank you very much! I had seen that thread and pictures, but didn't link them to my flag... so cool to have the historical testimony in context!

Cool! 1985 is the year I heard from the guy I bought my flag from, but I obviously can't be sure. So you have pictures of trade show with this flag? Would you mind sharing those here? I would be very interested in seeing them!

If it's genuine and the backstory is true, this one is my coolest conquest in years. Well, I have to confess I haven't conquered that much lately… I bought that flag on a local auction site a couple of days ago, and received it this morning. The seller told me the flag was left over at an...

No problem, you're welcome! Thanks!

Ok, then here is a new album on flickr with most pictures of the Macminitosh: It's the album I uploaded at Bunsen's request for that other thread. May I suggest Bunsen or Trash edit the original post of this thread with the new link? Thanks!

It most certainly is! What I meant was that Core Duo Macs (especially compared to the first Core 2 Duos) didn't feel that fast back then.

2006 MacBook Pro? Hopefully it's a late 2006 Core 2 Duo, and not the terrible 1st gen Core Duo MacBook Pro, with which you'd be far from four Moore's law generations away from your Quicksilver! 8-) Actually the Quicksilver I use as my backup Mac feels faster running Leopard today than my...

Yes! Why not? But wouldn't it make more sense tu attach them to this post? Actually I have to confess that my Macminitosh is retired. It was way cooler to build it than to use it... I sold the Mini last year, but kept my custom SE case and the monitor for who knows what the next project is...

Wow, it's been a long time! Actually the Macminitosh is now "dormant"… I sold my Mini about a year ago. I kept the SE case and all the cables and stuff, though. Maybe I'll put another Mac in there some time! The LCD has standard VGA. First it was connected through an Apple DVI to VGA converter...

Did you see this? http://www.cultofmac.com/160279/pick-up-this-extremely-rare-128k-mac-prototype-for-a-cool-100000/ Most certainly not Wozniak's, but impressive pics. Is it the same that surfaced some months ago?

It does!

Done! My Quicksilver 2002 now happily runs FU1-9.2.2 from a fresh install. It wasn't an easy journey, though. I spent most of yesterday night searching the web all over for a copy of a french 9.2.2 install recent enough to boot those machines released after the last update to Mac OS 9. No...

(Almost) done! Thanks to your help, and especially thanks to the kind comrade that PM'ed me great advice and links, my QS 2002 now boots happily in 9.2.2. I've tried various versions of the ROM file with little luck, but the one that did the trick is the image of the 800 MHz eMac original media...

Ask, and Ye shall receive! I now have a copy of Mac OS Rom 9.0.1, thanks to a kind comrade that provided me with a link for a copy of his. 8-) Well… is it over? Not really. things are getting really frustrating, since my Quicksilver 2002 still doesn't boot. It shows the happy Mac for half a...

Thanks! Yes, but no... :-/ When I bought this PowerMac a couple of years ago, I got the original CD set, but yesterday I realized it's obviously for an earlier PowerMac: it has 9.2.1 and X 10.0.4. It doesn't boot the Quicksilver beyond the happy Mac. As for TomeViewer, I first need to...

Hi all, Tonight I've just made a dumb thing: killing the perfectly good OS 9 installed on my PM G4 Quicksilver 2002. Long story short: I've replaced its entire OS 9 partition with the one from another machine to save some time, but in the end I forgot about the software Rom thing. And now I'm...

I'm very interested in this topic, since my PowerBook 100 suffers the exact same issue. I've talked about that PowerBook in this thread about my website (still under construction) pomme-s.ch which is (actually was) served up my the 100. That PowerBook had been up and running 24/7 from february...

Right. Actually I'm asking here first because I'm a (somehow) active member and have got to "know" some of you guys. But I know of nextcomputers.org. Great forum! I found a lot of help there when I got my hands on a NeXTstation some years ago. I'll eventually also expose this issue there!

Hi all, Is there any Rhapsody freak around here? I'm having a very specific problem with Rhapsody DR1, and it's getting on my nerves. I installed it on my PowerMac 9600 without an issue. For the record, the 9600 has a G3/275 processor card, 704 MB of Ram, a 1 GB and a 10 GB SCSI disks on the...
