Download and make a new copy of the install disk. That error means the Finder is bad.

If you get rechargeables with solder tabs, the soldering doesn't really involve any mucking about. I certainly prefer that to cutting the plastic.

Yes. The only thing is make sure you remember the polarity of anything you remove.

Are you sure it was garbage and not just Kanji being improperly displayed?

A II plus is a great find. IIe's and IIc's are pretty common, but a II+ is getting rare - not to mention an original II. I hope to find a II+ somewhere to get a keyboard and a spare encoder chip...

There's an invisible file required as well. I hacked the installers for the various versions I have so they can run from a hard disk.

Those ebay drives are 800K ones, meant to work with both macs and the IIgs. They won't help with the Lisa.

Try again - I just downloaded all 4 disks successfully: KANJI Talking 6.0.7.1 2HD-FD SYSTEM起動用_image SYSTEM追加分_image Font1.image Font2.image

Has to be version 6.0.7.1J for this trick to work. You can get it from http://www1.linkclub.or.jp/%7Ekenfuji/KANJI%20Talking.htm and I have archived a description of the process at http://school.anhb.uwa.edu.au/personalpages/kwessen/web/misc/powerbooksys6.html Ken

There is a CF card adapter made by Rich Dreher (CFFA - http://dreher.net/?s=projects/CFforAppleII&c=projects/CFforAppleII/main.php) Also there is Apple Game Server that lets you run programs directly from floppy images via a serial link.

Ah - there was very little third party software for the Lisa. You can easily write programs with the workshop, and no doubt many people did, but Office System is pretty much all there is for end-user type apps. Contrast this to the Mac where Apple aggressively encouraged third party...

If you have a Lisa, download the software and install - then you will see one. If you don't, download an emulator first. I don't really understand the point of your post.

If you're talking native Lisa (i.e. not running MacWorks) then you need the Lisa Workshop. It includes Assembly and Pascal, plus there's also a Basic and a Cobol I believe. It's easy to find a copy online and it runs in the emulators. David Craig has some simple documents showing how to use...

Either S-C assembler or Lisa is fine, and I'd use whichever one matches the text you are following - Lisa for the book and S-C for Apple Assembly Line articles. S-C also has optional Z-80 support that may be useful if (like me) you use a Z80 card in an Apple II. Merlin is another option - that...

Text and PDF versions of Randy Hyde's book on Apple II assembly language programming are available to download from various places. Also, http://www.obelisk.demon.co.uk/6502/ is an excellent introduction to 6502 programming. Ken edit: I forgot to mention the Apple Assembly Line archives...

I too have read it, both in print and on the net, but of course that is not necessarily authoritative. You could try running the Guided Tour app with System 1.0 - if it doesn't work, that would be significant supporting evidence.

Don't forget the Colby WalkMacs. I'd be surprised if any of us have one of them, but you never know. http://www.chuckcolby.com/walkmac.html

Take a look at the PowerPC System Software Inside Macintosh book. It's online, here's the section on using the code fragment manager for system extensions etc: -http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/mac/PPCSoftware/PPCSoftware-40.html#HEADING40-0 And for System Extensions generally there's...

I think of it as a clone, and as such it is much more interesting than an emulator.

Can you give some specific examples of software that crashes with 512K of RAM but works with 128K? (Both using the 64K ROMs of course.) It seems very unlikely to me, so I'd like to see it happen and maybe work out just why. From a Mac Toolbox perspective, you make a call that allocates memory...
