I've been reading about this for days, but I can't seem to find anywhere that has asked this question : can I set up MacTCP 2.0.6 to use a 10.0.0.xxx IP address?  Worst case scenario, I could flip my whole network over to 192.168.0.xxx, but I'd rather not if I could avoid it. If this HAS been...

Hi all, I acquired another SE, an FDHD this time.  I pulled the HDD out because it wasn't booting anymore, installed a new drive and system 7.1 from a dead LCII I had, and it runs like a dream now.  My problem, such as it is, comes from trying to hook the bad drive up to an external enclosure to...

Hi all, super easy stupid question. I bought a Wallstreey today from a guy who hadn't used it in years, and not with the battery for longer. The battery doesn't start charging immediately when inserted, that means that it's hosed, right? I'm assuming it's dead, but didn't know if there was...

Hi all, I picked up a PowerBook 160 as part of a lot on CL, found what I thought might be a suitable power adapter, fired it up.  It chimes, but then displays a grey screen with a narrow band around the edge of the screen with what looked like little triangles with 3 dots in the middle spaced...

Hello all, since it seems like I've caught the vintage Mac/Apple bug, I figured I'd start one of these threads.   I scored what I think to be a pretty good CraigsList deal on a literal car-full of late 80's early 90's stuff, photos over here: http://imgur.com/a/28kgt I'm particularly...

Hi everyone, I'm new to the board, and new to the world of older Macs, but the last 10 days or so have been pretty exciting from an "acquiring new knowledge" standpoint.  I've been posting over on the vintageapple subreddit, and this forum was recommended as where the experts hang out.  So I'm...
