Thats what I would have guessed, 300 Series. Stuffit7 seems to unpack the MacBinary from Wayback all right. Muliport cable? Did you get one of those?

I´m not familiar with Nubus PC cards, but did you try the waybackmachine? http://web.archive.org/web/20000815224254/http://www.orangemicro.com/updates.html Small files are usually well preserved from vanished sites, some basic files seem to be still there, nb application disk and Win95 boot...

7.5.2 shipped with the PPC7200. I ownwed one of those and still have D-7.5.2 somewhere. Edit: 7.5.1 should have come with a PPC 6200 and yes, OSX 10.5 or 10.6 should be safe enough for you now. :)

I had an Epson SC740 with my Bondi blue. Was it a good printer from todays view? No, but it served me well, back then. Some of the models were even available in Bondi blue too. I dumped my last SC740 some time ago, as nobody seemed to want one any more.

There was a thread about RSG some time ago at Macintoshgarden. IIRC it is possible to run RSG with a emulated Mac setup and print to file with PrintToPDF in there. I think RSG4 was running with BasiliskII, output might be more desirable with Acrobat, but PrintToPDF should do for a test drive.

Congratulations - from here too! I would go there again to have a closer look at the X60. If it has a C2D cpu it would run Lion rather easily. WLAN would have to be exchanged probably for OSX compatibility and the GMA950 only has 32bit drivers for Lion AFAIK. But it sounds like a deal still.

Did you try BasiliskII? The emulator can write Mac 1.4MB floppies with a GNU-Linux or Windows host. Please note, that you will have to press Control + F1 to mount a floppy in the emulator. As your Mac has the Superdrive upgrade, you should be able to create boot floppies rather easily. If the...

If your System images are good, I would inflate and write them to floppy by means of the BasiliskII emulator on your Sony. The procedure will only work for 1.4MB disks of course. BII can write Mac floppies from a Windows or Linux host. To tell the emulator about a inserted floppy, press...

You certainly tried the most obvious already? You can rebuild the Desktop manually by holding down the Option and Command (Apple) keys while the computer starts up. Click OK when you see the message "Are you sure you want to rebuild the Desktop file on the disk "your disk"? Comments in info...

Congratulation - and thanks for the well done pictures. May I ask what you paid for the SCSI to Ethernet adapter? Is that a CAT5 patch cable or 10baseT? Just wondering about the thick cable without termination.

Pneumatic metal shears? Better power on your CO2-laser on the attic! :)

Fresh grounded coffee beans may solve your smelly mystery, if you dont mind the coffee flavour. Or moisten your bags and give them a treat in full sunlight. Thats what grandmother did with her washing. :) Active coal may work too, but you will need lots.

JT - I had no luck, whenever I tried something with Ubuntu. (Ubuntu users, just disregard this - problem was certainly on my side) GParted Live is the one for me, runs almost everywhere, with or without ethernet. For a full install I still like the old Mandriva2010 release, because all my Eee...

Do you have your shopping list ready already, JT? Atom should be easy going, but one of the newer AMD APUs may be interesting too. Unfortunately those seem to want 65W or so. My A640 Macmini even wants 95W. "Intel outside" said the stickers on our Macs...

If the connectors are tinned already from de-soldering, there would be no point in doing it again. If everything is prepared, you may want some thin soldering wire (0.3mm), just in case the machine pins are looking a bit naked. Hope all goes well JT, without burned fingers or else. :)

I was only using 60/40 tin-lead or 60/38/2 tin-lead-copper solder back than (no such new age stuff). Did not see much difference in reliability concerning the solder. The main problem with such small beasts seems to me getting the solder stick to the machine pin to avoid "cold" connections. I...

I have a working iMac (sort of) with faulty FBT connected to a FSI monitor from flea market. As I bought the iMac brand new, its in rather good shape. There´s not much special inside, except for the SCSI host adapter in the mezzanine maybe. 10.3 and 9.2 do run if needed, but I recently switched...

I would like to second that, I used my ancient 7.0.1 floppies for installing a System for FusionPC on my old Win98 box. No problem. My System disks are German, so they will be of little use for you, I presume.

From what I picked up by casual reading, there are two very similar ZIP 100 drives. One is for parallel port and carries no jumpers on its back = bad, wont work with Macs. The other is SCSI with jumpers between the ports = good, will work with Macs and can be used as boot volume. If you...

All Mac emulator screens have rounded corners: MiniVMac, BasiliskII, SheepShaver, from System2 or lower to OS9. My iMac with a Siemens TFT has rounded corners too (CRT is dead). I guess the sharp corners are hardware related therefore - due to some cutting. System7Today has a link to a...
