What do you mean more precisely? The schematic? I think an ADB mouse is a (relatively) smart device with a microcontroller og sorts inside.

Eh, I can hardly open a cupboard here without a microcontroller board of some kind falling out, I'd love to see that code. Don't you need a transceiver to speak RS422 to the Mac, though? I was actually thinking about this today, since I have some high quality faders that I want to make a MIDI...

I just put a Noctua in my Quadra 700 power supply and it made a world of difference, noise-wise. The air that's coming out is quite cool, but I have noticed that the CPU heatsink feels, how to describe it, not uncomfortable hot, but fairly warm if I take the cover off right after shutting down...

Even if you just get binary read-outs it's a great help. I've got a 2ch/16 bit Agilent MSO (an old one), and in some cases it's been a fantastic help, but TBH 16 bit just doesn't cut it for 68k systems. I've got at least one reversing project that's stranded on lack of logic analyzer channels...

Nice tool! I've read that some of those big logic analysers can understand the processor bus cycles and even do disassembly of captures. Does yours do anything like that?

Not sure I ever used Word 4,but I just remember everything that came after 5 as slow and buggy. I think I stuck with it for school work until about 2000.

It's been a long time since I used it, but Word 5 for Mac will always have a special place in my heart. So simple and pure.

I think it was black. I went through the control panels and found one called BCache Control, which points to a Phase5 Maccelerate with 1MB cache. LEM lists something like this as a 300MHz accelerator. Interesting.

Was out walking earlier when I passed by a local institute of higher learning. They put all their electronics recycling outside in marked bins (behind their walls, but there's no gate, you can walk right so I'm not sure it's technically trespassing). I've gotten good stuff from there in the...

Does it use a normal FAT file system that can be read on a computer? I think a lot of old music gear like this had proprietary file systems. Probably a simple one, but I think there'd be some coding needed.

Is this (on the hardware side) capable of being a SCSI host? SCSI was common on samplers (musical instruments) from the late 80's to the late 90's as a way of transferring audio directly between a computer (which would act as the host) and the samplers memory, using a SCSI-based protocol called...

My impression is that the custom chips in anything after the SE get a lot more complex, but that reimplementing the GLU chip seems fairly easy... The video system in the SE is a variant of the original's, as far as I can tell, very simple stuff. Not saying the later ones are impossible to...

This is a very interesting project.

Oh, wow. That's actually very useful.

I have no use for these unfortunately, but I'd almost get one for scuzzy the snail alone. Hope to see it on other products. What a mascot!

I'm not actually sure it's the original in there, I think I replaced it long ago with something cheap that kind of fit. I've added two big Nubus cards so I'm a lot more worried about airflow now.

Hi! Can anyone recommend a good, quiet fan to replace the one in my Quadra 700 power supply?

I remember when the TiBooks came out, how beautiful and powerful and ahead of everything else they seemed - it's also quite amazing how well the look has held up, I think. These look to be in extremely good condition, what a catch. I missed one locally a few months ago and I'm still a little sad...

At the risk of derailing your thread completely, do you know how big a difference there is between SCSI hosts and SCSI targets? Would it be possible to use hardware as (relatively) simple as yours to implement a SCSI host? The reason I ask is because there exists a standard, SMDI, that...

Yeah, those could work as well! Supposedly also some of the MAX II and MAX V CPLDs from Intel/Altera, by use of an external resisting (current limiting, I'm guessing): https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/programmable/cpld/max-ii.html...
