That's not needed FireWire was designed to do some networking (at least IPv4 and IPv6) Just need to connect to another firewire-able able computer. This works on macOS, Linux, and FreeBSD IIRC, FireWire overhead is about +20% for this, so about 300 Mbps for FW400

Nice job! I'm seeing lots of controllers in the background. What will you use with this one ? Yeah, think I wall have ti extend that to a few others projects :P

Ha, that's interesting! I was trying to build something similar with Qemu

Yeah looks like memory issues, either timing or frequency. Some VRAM chips needs different settings than what the stock ROM does

Credits where it's due, I stole that idea from old AV gear where they usually did this with smoked translucent panels You are welcome! Thanks for your help as well! PR done, let me know if something needs improvement

Interconnect cable / jedi board most likely. Do you get video out of the external video port ?

Thanks! Yes that's what they are doing. LEDs are kinda bright, and there is a small bleeding (not close enough) but it works fine.

More dusting off! there is some updates coming in the GitHub, mostly BOM updates of obsolete components, and also FR-4 panels to use with Hammond 1455L801case. The PCB stays the same @Chopsticks printable case is the smarter way to have a nice enclosure, but if you do not have access to a 3D...

Umax 1200 series for the scanner gets my vote as well

Sounds like a dry solder joint or something similar (temperature related) BTW, Can you dump the ROMs if possible ?

IIRC the +5V budget per NuBus slot is 2A. So if no cards, that's 6A off. Worst case, you can always use DCDC 12 to 5V converters for the drives, fans and stuff outside of the logic board

That's not exactly true. back in early 2000 cheap ATXs were fire hazards. Now they are all dead So while a modern bad ATX can be worse than an old good PSU, a good modern ATX will trump both, tolerances are tight

During the group buy, a lot of people were interested for a color closer to our old gear (white/beige/light gray), here is what it looks like Activity LED is orange-ish like the Mac II era HDD ones, whereas on the blue one LED collar is sea-ish blue

Sorry reloaded project is out of my skill level. That being said, as @Unknown_K mentioned the breakout box is the rare part. Pretty sure some members over here will be interested if you want to put them on sale

More like a tool and or skill issue :cry: Managed to cut myself with the blade trick, and the ribbon was kinda hard. So used a flat screwdriver, except doing it side-to-side misaligned the ribbon a little bit Maybe using some metal ruler would do it just fine

Thanks for the guide! Finally did my bench powerbook. On the third try got it almost correct. Two lines on the keyboard matrix are shorting, but that's way better than no clock, half a display and instant crash if using the keyboard

Black edition. More to come

It's also working with ADB pointing devices, which is about half of what people are using with it (thread)

@Mu0n Nice video. This is a nice contribution to this project. I liked the historical and Studio Session parts, as my first Mac already had 8 bit mono input and I was more messing with Player Pro. Didn't know that king of work was possible on a Plus

Indeed. but as @Melkhior that requires a working MMU so a 68030. Interested to see if you manage to find a way for this on a bone stock 68000…
