I come to the conclusion that 7z decompression is only possible in OSX. LZMA is a open source algorithm so its not impossible to write a archiver even for system 6-9.

Is there a 7-zip supporting compressor or decompressor for the classic OS available or needs it to be written first? I found p7zip and stuffit for OS X only. For interested people using vintage macs A low memory LZMA decompressing source is at the coreboot project repo to find.

i thought there were also PC(or whatever else) compatible base stations from 2002-03.They have 2 ethernet ports.Is it possible to convert an old UFO via flashing the ROM to working with PCs in a network or doing router works like the MIPS based NSLU2? This may be a good theme for the "I...

this reminds me on commonly experienced 6100 problems.

260$ may be worth for to pay a 9700 prototype but not for a normal 9600.

Have OS 9.2 but would be funny. Do you have game programming resources (docs,sample code)available? What programming language do you use?

Don't give it up. You can sell or loan it to someone else for repair.

SUVs are mostly not really off-road capable unlike a Land Rover or a similar car.

On the X86 there are 3 types of instructions: Integer instructions(most code) Floating Point instructions(complex math,needed an FPU on 386) Vector instructions(comparable to altivec called MMX,SSE2/3/4) The Hackintosh OS X emulates vector instructions on A PIII using an earlier version of...

A/UX is a very special Unix system. Mixed from Uniplus,BSD System V,and SunOS. It even supports different file systems like NFS via the sun vfs. It has the system V FS ,STREAMS and supports TCP/IP and select() and BSD signals. It contains mixup code so that programs can use the GUI routines...

The G3 is almost always faster,that was the reason for the 9700 to use it. The G3 Macs often come with a full megabyte of cache or some on chip cache, like the 750cx. The 604 machines can run Copland that supported preemptive multitasking only for background processes if it didn't crash(lol).

The 7200/7500/7600/7300 are very capable machines.

That is a good reason to drink mineral water or tea.

In OS X DP3 it was still possible to delete the Aqua theme file, the OS changed to Platinum if you did it.

I thought about to post the same topic yesterday. These Macs accept 1GB of RAM and HDDs up to 128GB. ZIF CPU upgrades up to 1100 MHZ are available. The 300mhz model is a bit slower because of the halved cache. The G3 runs a lot more operating systems than my 6100. I have still one of these...

Sony cut the external ports from the Playstations with model changes and cut the opening mechanics with the PSOne(the small). There were special white blue and black units for video CDs and developers. The PSX is still good for playing music CDs with the 2x CDROM drive. It lacks computer...

I liberated XTs from Tandon and Siemens once. Minix 1.x supports multitasking and TCP/IP even on this computers. Other software I had was Windows 1.03,2.10,GEM and FreeDOS. The XTs were much slower than my ATs and I had trouble installing 1.44 floppys and Trident 9000 video cards. P.S. This...

There are "homebrew" games legal available. Most of them for 2600 because that system is most challenging. A 2600 emulator may run fast on Newton OS if properly recoded but may look very different in grayscale and input is a bit difficult. NES emulation may require a good optimizing compiler...

To the 500 Mhz G4 barrier: Thats why the PPC 7450 was used in the 667 and 733 Mhz G4 DA. An interesting note is that the lower price Digital Audio model include a PowerBook CPU called 7410 that can use half its cache as RAM and may be better at overclocking because it runs cooler ,which I...

Someone owning a AV should send a patch to Linus.
