    The use case back in the day was "It was what shipped with your computer". It was on the restore disks that came in the box. Not until the System 7 days were there "OS Upgrade kits" available.

    Why would you use Mac OS 6.0.5?

    Versioning back in the early System-before-7 didn't work like we now understand it. There were some bug fixes here and there, but most of the time the "news" were the bundled drivers to make the system work on the latest edition of whatever Macintosh just came out. Try to find a list of changes...

    Capacitor list for 240V SE?

    The SE uses a switching power supply, so there's no difference between the analog boards on SE and SE/30. I have one myself, recapped with the console5 kit - all values were the same, and it works perfectly.

    @Cory5412 and @tecneeq Do you do anything to your 8.1 install? Any extra extensions? QoL apps you can't live without? Or do you run default install?

    Guide or recommendations for 8.0/8.1?

    Since we live in a post-spinning disk time where hard disk space isn't really a factor anymore, and we can easily swap drive images/SD cards I've put together my own collection of "standard" images. I am of course standing on the shoulders of giants, so they are all based on various guides...

    How to create a blank HD for file saving and transfering with ZuluSCSI for Macintosh plus

    Am I missing something obvious, or is it merely the fact that something called *_PPC_.smi will fail to execute on Basilisk which is strictly 68k? You'll need the "gc41us68k.sit" file available from the same page.

    6100/G3: cranking up the system clock, is 80MHz possible?

    Be aware that depending on your G3 accelerator (which is mentioned in the title), adding L2 cache to the motherboard might be detrimental to performance. Some Sonnet Nubus G3s come with some onboard L2 cache, which is _much_ faster than the stock one which is meant for and wired up to the...
