Do you have any idea if this will work in an ADB chain? Like, PS/2 mouse -> ADB keyboard -> Mac?

A few of the online retailers here list 4 and 8gb SATA SSDs, not cheap (certainly not for the amount of space) but not completely out of reach either. I would like to try this but I'm not sure I will ever get round to it...

10 SCSI HDs though. That's a lot of noise.

250GB? Ayy, that's a lot of 2GB partitions... Thanks for the info.

Hello! That's exactly the kind of thing I want. Where did you get it and how much did you pay?

I was once able to use my Sawtooth as a glorified external Firewire CD drive by shuffling the IDE cables about so the CD was on the first bus. Then connect by Firewire to other Mac with no optical drive, and start Sawtooth while holding T.

I urge you not to listen to Scott Baret when it comes to copyright. He insists on getting a boxed copy of Shufflepuck Cafe for each Mac he runs it on.

Was afraid someone would say that. Does anyone have a link to instructions for doing that? I assume it means taking the thing apart, to some extent.

The cartridges are standard Canon somthing or other, so they can't be that hard to find. I'm wondering if they're the issue, though.

Hi all. I recently found a beautiful near-mint Color Stylewriter 2200. It's got an ink cartridge in it, but I'm guessing it hasn't been used for several years. I hooked it up to my Quadra and installed the software and attempted to print out some text. It seems to be working, the paper gets...

I've got a few of these that I'm not using. PM if interested.

Thanks, mate.

Don't know the Gigabit. But at least on the Sawtooth there's a fan you can disconnect with no trouble unless you add more HDs or fill every PCI slot. That makes it very quiet. Since the later G3s suck less juice than the G4s (even clock-for-clock, as I understand), there's not going to be a lot...

I'm hoping to get one for the office - it all just comes together in the B&W: near give-away prices, low power consumption for teh quiet, ADB keyboard and optionally a serial port, runs OS9, Tiger and Linux... scrumptious!

Don't try to change my mind with facts!

How did you partition them? You need to use the Apple tools¸ I think.

I once fried my two biggest RAM SIMMs and borked the RAM clips on a ThinkPad T20 motherboard cos I was trying to fix it while angry...

Don't think there's any way to do that in software. You could open it and unplug it from the logic board...

New World Macs actually included a serial port in the logic board for years after they'd been removed from the outside, for the internal modem. The stealth serial port just replaces the internal modem with an actual external serial port.

Swedish eBay-a-like. Well, that's how many files there are?
