    Network Games for Apple II?

    Okay, that's not much of a surprise. It should be somewhat less difficult than modern games because you're screen is very low resolution and has limited color. So that's a lot less data to send. IF you design in features for earlier Apple II machines, maybe you could write a protocol to get...

    What kind of disks does my Disk ][ use?

    Yeah? That company seems to have an index.html site and an index.php site (the one I listed), it's a little confusing. If you ever try buying some disks from them, let me know how it goes. After all, $1 a disk for old stuff like that isn't bad at all. Wish I could find the PC 5.25" drive my...

    Got myself an Apple IIe (Enhanced) today!

    Indeed it looks quite nice, I'm thankful that it has a super serial card 8-) as loading stuff with ADTPro over the cassette interface at 108bps sounds painfully slow. Thanks for the heads up on macguivault, didn't know they had much software on there. :) Yes you should have! :p It would...

    Got myself an Apple IIe (Enhanced) today!

    Yay, finally bought one off ebay after weeks and weeks of watching for something inexpensive and complete which never materialized. Payed a small fortune (~ USD $200), or will pay one in the very near future. Parents are very handy when you haven't got much (or any) money to spare because of...

    Network Games for Apple II?

    I see this is about a year old, anything new on this front? Sounds like you need software flow control written into it.

    Unix for 8-bit Apple

    Considering the relatively open design, someone could probably make an MMU card for the Apple. Although you might only be able to effectively use memory that was only addressable by the card. You'd probably need some software to make all the hardware access it's memory through the card though I...

    Apple II internet

    Speaking of IPNetRouter, according to this page http://www.sustworks.com/site/news_promo.html, you can use the original version for free. Of course you'd need a 68k Mac/Powermac as well as MacOS 7.6 and OT (http://www.sustworks.com/site/downloads.html). If I ever want to use it I will be very...

    Macintosh 128K with "Maccessories Swivel"

    Nice chart, I've got basically the same one in a book. The one on the webpage you mention is slightly better explained though. They didn't put in the XXXX after the class code so it's a little harder to piece together how the error is arranged.

    Macintosh 128K with "Maccessories Swivel"

    If it occurs at start-up, I'm guessing it's a hardware error. Looking at my book it seems that all the hardware errors are memory errors? Gonna guess at some problematic/dead memory chips. Thing is, if that's true, you'll have to find new chips to replace any that are bad. Does anyone know if...

    Micha's SCSI hacks: offline

    You might want to check again. The SDF server where that's hosted was down and appears to be back up, they upgraded/modified something or other requiring some work if I recall.

    Classilla 9.1

    Any chance that HTML5 or a subset of it might be in the not too far distant pipeline to implement or at least consider/contemplate? There's a working draft spec for it at http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/.

    Does a Stylewriter II Have Any Value?

    It has some value to anyone who has a mac with a serial port. It is especially so, since short of a mac capable network printer anyone with such a computer (and no printer) has almost no easy way to print besides floppy swapping with a fair bit newer mac. If you wanted to give it away, I might...

    Performa 6116 with Sonnet Crescendo G3 500Mhz and 8100 HPV

    Not sure if this matters anymore, but Sonnet's page for the Crescendo/Nubus G2 for 6100 and others (http://www.sonnettech.com/product/crescendo_nubus.html) claims that it has a built in 66MHz bus on the card allowing full 500MHz operation.

    Mac LC III 16mhz?

    Well, I'd say either look for a normal LCIII motherboard or seek someone out with a broken LCIII board with a working CPU and get the chips swapped. It really shouldn't matter since an normal 16MHz '030 in a LCIII should outperform one in an LCII since the LCII has that 32-bit? processor on a...

    Stuffit Help Needed!

    Did you use StuffIt to convert the .sit.hqx file to a .sit file? If not, maybe that would be worth a try? OR If you used something other than BinHex to unbinhex the file, try using binhex instead. It is possible that the file may just be corrupt or broken.

    Sad Mac 040002

    As for finding replacement chips, it's hard to say. There might be a chip usable for this on http://www.arcadecomponents.com/memory.html, but I don't know enough to say much on that.

    Sad Mac 040002

    That sounds like a safe bet according to my book (MacWEEK Upgrading and repairing your mac). The tables are a little hard to decipher, but i'm guessing it's a class code 4 (Memory Test - Mod3 Test) which "Identifies bad chips". Possibly: Data Bit 10, Location G7. Sub Code Bits 0400 if that makes...

    SCSI harddisk replacement options

    The pictures linked to from that page imply that a sd to pcmcia adapter is usable with this, talk about a jump from modern to pretty old technology.

    SCSI harddisk replacement options

    Someone who has some advanced knowledge should adapt this http://micha.freeshell.org/ramdisk/index.php to an ATA/IDE Interface. Using it with something like this http://www.opend.co.za/hardware/avride/avride.htm might be workable.
