    CPU swap PPC604e

    That's a bummer - but following with interest (and 🤞) anyway! I'd love to boost the speed of my Interware(Daystar) dual 200Mhz which I have in a 8500 I run BeOS on... I also have a small stack of original Apple CPU cards - would have to check the specs, but nothing super fast - if you need any...

    Radeon 7000 Refresher

    I don't have a Radeon 7000 handy, nor have I Google'd for a pic (sorry, Sunday morning and the coffee has not kicked in)... but I've seen this behavior - works once, then doesn't - on several old Macs and cards that had those pesky 'can' smt caps. Theory is they work until they warm up and dump...

    MacTwister: a MacCon/Etherport/Dayna Twisted Pair breakout board

    OK, so, o n l y 2 months later... 😞 I finally managed to clear some space and probe out the connections. Here's how my card maps out : Pins 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 are power -- confimed 5, 9, 10, 13, 14 are GND -- confirmed 15 -- connects to AM7992B, pin 24, Collision+ 16 -- connects to AM7992B, pin...

    Introducing Weatherbot, a weather forecast application

    Ah, yeah, good point. Even so... useful exercise to get my PB 180c online and doing something "modern" - over WiFi even!! :cool:

    Introducing Weatherbot, a weather forecast application

    Neat app... it's a bit RAM hungry to just leave running ... I see I need to register to get the 7-day - fair enough. 🙂 Have you thought about making it a Control Strip module - with a 'live' icon that shows the general weather forecast (in the above case, a thunderstorm cloud) when loaded...

    Introducing Weatherbot, a weather forecast application

    Before diving into my extensions... saw your remark in your ChatGPT thread... I dont, just using MacTCP. If you're dependent on OT, that's probably the issue. I'll look into installing it - at least on my 7.5.1 partition. Will report back.

    Introducing Weatherbot, a weather forecast application

    Hi, very cool... if only I could get it to work. 😞 I know you said to use your contact form... But I didn't see a way to upload an image. When loading, right after the main panel starts to build, I get this : I'm running 7.1, a BSv2, I can ping www.intel.com (sorry, it's an easy one to...
