    Looking for Mac Hack CDs!!! :-D

    I recall this as well- there was MacJive? I think it was called that came out one year that realtime translated any text rendered using toolbox calls in Jive. Might be interesting to track these hacks down...

    Pre-production Macintosh Color Classic

    thru-holes? They're all in through hole DIP packages- just some are UV EPROMs and others are MASK ROM. What do you mean?

    Pre-production Macintosh Color Classic

    Can you get a shot of the inside of the back case, the underside of the logic board area, and a view of the edge connector inside the system? As far as the inside back case and underside of the logic board area go, I'm looking for the date code matrix. I'm also interested to see what version...

    Cloning the Pippin Flash ROM board

    This is relevant to my interests... I've got a GM system, a preproduction Dev system, and two retail systems I've done some hardware hacks to to restore ADB, soft power on, and cd-rom emulation on one of my retails, but I've been looking closely at options for populating the onboard rom pads...

    Raspberry Pi as SCSI device

    It CAN implement an ethernet connection over scsi, but not without a client-side driver. The driver provided is for X68000, not Macintosh. That said, we've had a few discussions about this in the last day over in IRC... There's some potential in this, but I don't believe it's in the direction...

    Interware Booster 040 Upgrade?

    It'll likely clock to 40 with minimal issues, especially as there was a 40mhz version. An 060 won't work in any Mac regardless, without modifying Apple's ROM (no one has made any progress to this end even after 20+ years)

    Pre-production Macintosh Color Classic

    Any chance you have dumped the rom and compared to the retail?

    No chime in Color Classic, but it seems to work OK...

    Another note (I've been doing a lot of board and chassis tests recently) - if you store your boards out of machines, they can build up some oxidation on the "edge connector". One fine example was the system that had no LED, and front panel board didn't function- cleaning that section of the...

    Does anyone run a Takky Color Classic - 3.3V regulator essential?

    In response to the original topic, as stated, the 3.3v is for the PCI bus. That said, the earlier 6360 and 6400 era boards should need it if you need to drive a pci device, while the 6500 boards may not. The boards SHOULD work fine regardless without 3.3v, you just won't be able to run any PCI...

    Where To Find Decent Quality Foil Lined EPROM Window Stickers?

    Apple Development Transition Kit

    There are 3 install discs that were issued by apple to DTK owners: Mac OS X 10.4.1 8B1025 Mac OS X 10.4.1 8B1099 Mac OS X 10.4.3 8F1111 All of these have been patched in various forms, but for a DTK, the more original, the better. I spent quite a while sorting the mess out a few years ago...

    Apple Development Transition Kit

    The BIOS is a custom one based on the intel reference bios for this board series. It pre-dates the "retail" board used in the D915GXX series by a little bit (no surprise there as the board and TPM were pre-programmed by Intel for apple. The Installer for this system was fully leaked in the...

    eBay 400MHz Wallstreet II?

    I've had a few wallstreet/pdq's identify as 400 as well- i think it's a bug in certain builds of the system/system profiler- usually after a reinstall they show up correctly.

    Daystar Digital Turbo601

    yes, that Turbo 601 you have will work in IIsi (with adapter), IIcx, IIci (from experience), probably a couple others (as Charlieman notes), but not the quadra's- they have a different PDS slot both form factor and electronically.

    Can a Nubus SCSI card serve as the sole SCSI bus in a Quadra?

    it should- you might have to format the drives with atto/fwb software- it's been a while since I've used the cards, but i do know they're bootable.

    9600 SUCCESS!!! Kinda....

    Any chance you'd be interested in parting with the 200MP (with or without the matching) name badge? I'd really like to reassemble my old system from college (nostalgia). drop me a PM if possible- I can provide a number of other badges in its place - other model 9600's, g3 badges, etc.

    Apple Development Transition Kit

    I've had one of these for a few years as well... some notes I've taken: Motherboard is a custom short run (BARRACUDA) from Intel based on the D915GAGL platform. Board options included are Gigabit Lan, iee1394, and TPM. TPM is pre-programmed with the keys required to decode Finder and other...
