Does B2 know you stole the floppy-head-protect disk?

Addendum: Head swap is risky cuz of alignment issues. I've swapped with no issues, but I may have just been extremely lucky.

@luRaichu had asked in a profile post about swapping the circuit board from a SuperDrive to an 800K drive to convert it. I know from personal experience that won't work because at the very least the chassis is slightly different between the two and it won't fit. However, I've swapped the head...

Then it's that way. :) I don't know which head is the default one for which side. It's whichever head reads side one (whichever side that is). I could try again.

@joshc Cracks & Number 0.2.0 (aka 0.2.0A, aka C&N Editor, aka Serial Numbers & Cracks Viewer Application). I don't know if it's used by anything else.

@MJ313 They're also only 1MB. I think he was having trouble getting larger SIMMs to work.

@Jockelill Any idea if it'll eventually support 8- & 4-bit color and B&W?

I would like to see some new SIMMs. I have two 8*24 GCs, and neither have RAM.

Not to hijack, but this is my favorite:

$50 can get you 100 tacos at Jack in the Box.

Interesting. I can usually swap around drivers and still read the disks. I'm currently trying to track down a memory leak.

Dumb question, but do you have a good battery? My Centris 610 won't display much without a battery.

@lostkerbal I do not, sorry. If I remember correctly, it was pretty large, and it's supposed to be attached firmly to where the neck of the CRT is.

No solder mask with gold traces does look really cool. My dad has an unpopulated PCB memory board from an old mainframe. Looks really neat.

Is it because they don't have a mask?

I love this kind of digital archeology. :) Nice job.

@lostkerbal I don't know if this one has a similar insides as the AppleColor High Resolution display, but mine had a similar issue that was caused by a large coil being loose. The plastic became super brittle and it broke free from the bracket. I repaired the plastic bar with some super glue...

@beachycove Maybe the LaserWriter doesn't do it. I don't know. Or maybe it was unique to the business line of HP LaserJets. The only time it'd be useful is if you had multiple people printing large documents. It'd spool the print job to the printer and store it there. I don't know if it was...

@slomacuser Unless I missed it, it's everything except the 24AC. :D Thank you anyway. Archiving ROMs for cards I have.
