If this datasheet is to be believed it is an Opto-Coupler. These components use internal LEDs and Photo-Transistors to act as "no contact" switches to control things without direct contact. This keeps more sensitive 0-5 volt digital logic from being damaged when improperly connected to AC or...

Thanks! I did indeed do just that. I kept the dual-y 800 with the 1.6 gigs of ram. Its pretty damn zippy. Did a clean install of 10.4 and kept all the drives. All I really did to remedy the video problem was swap the cards, but on booting into 9.2 it does weird lines across the screen (like...

Having more problems with my OrangePC setup. I am trying to share a volume as a drive but when I access it on the DOS side it keeps telling me: C:\>D: Invalid drive specification I read about this executable called OSHARE.EXE in the manual, but don't know what to make of it. Can some...

That is SUPER cool.

Thanks so much for the pics. I dunno about you guys but they get me through the day when I'm using modern machines at work and want some classic-mac porn. What's the game playing here?

A productive night! The network issues went away when I used the following extension profile Extensions ------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------ Apple Built-In Ethernet 41,145 bytes 1.0.5 comd enbi...

Updates. Hit a bit or a weirdness patch recently. Don't know if its a prevailing trend of poor luck, or the hardware. Basically as it stands; 7100/66 "Arroway" - Drydocked/awaiting new orders I have had to remove her main drive to get the power-house 80Mhz 7100 working. 7100/80 "Hadden" -...

This thread screams for PICS!!!

when I get mine working properly I might be able to send you the bulk of my leftovers.

I caved. I am bidding on one of the 3.5" adapters on ebay right now. Maybe I'll win, I'm almost hoping I don't with the amount of money I've already sunk into my 7100's but looking at all the nonsense associated with getting more modern SCSI drives working is making my head spin. At 10 bucks...

So I'm close to having my second most favoured Mac back; a Powerbook 5300c I used all through high school, only to have the screen shatter! Well Beachycove was nice enough to give me a 5300c with a loose power jack, but an immaculate screen! I managed to get the screens switched last night and...

Sourcing Hard Drive adapters. I have a SCSI Seagate Barracuda server drive with one of those quick removal connectors you see on servers. Pretty sure its the 68pin connector shown here. SO I am looking at one of these guys. Anything I should know before I pull the trigger?

Not your fault beachy cove! I'll try and get a SCSI adapter and get that honking big server drive you gave me going!

I think I'm just going to breakdown and get the cf adapter. This kinda stuff is ridiculously frustrating and I have big plans.

Okay well that will have to wait... Dunno why, but when I went home last night with an eMate wireless card in hand and about 4 hours of free time to get it networked, that was the time my new(to me) drive decided that it wanted to start being weird. At least I think its the drive. Its a 230MB...

I remember getting the autostart worm from one! :D

Those "max" emoticons near brought a tear to me eye.

SERIOUSLY??? Thats AWESOME. I was a huge mac-addict fan back in the day. Oh how I miss that magazine.

Ha, Mcdermd, your site is awesome. I like your splash page about your two monolithic cultural icons; Star Wars and Apple. For me it was the same, except with Trek.

When I opened up my REVB iMac YEARS ago, I remember there was an odd display looking connector coming out of the main logic board chassis that connected to the monitor. I assumed this was an internal VGA cable. Is it possible to connect this to an external display?
