Found an off the shelf solution: https://shop.funand.tech/products/raspberry-pi-zero-2w-with-external-wifi-antenna-connector-u-fl It's massive overkill to treat the SCSI to SD conversion as a HAT on a full blown Linux Computer, but the added CPU cost isn't prohibitive. Now thinking in terms of...

Dang! might a larger than Pico version with antenna hookup be suitable as the CPU? Running a power lead to a CS/CSII unit would be a PITA. However doing a CS/CSII specific version with MicroSD slot and antenna lead available on the backplane of 6xxx/5xxx would be killer!

Wondering if a hookup or workaround for running an external antenna lead outside the RFI shielding of a Mac is a possibility? Running the lead to a wire type antenna in a PowerBook lid might be ideal? RFI shielding of a Duo's HDD bay can be tucked underneath, but dunno about other 'Books Also...

LATE edit::rolleyes: Southpaws would be inclined to use their thumb in the same manner, but would more likely be accustomed to having lever actuated "adding machine" on the right side, using right pinkie in the same manner as right handed number crunchers.

I vaguely remember a two part version of this one that might have had a single button: With NumPad on left, having only a single button on the right side of the mouse might make some sense. A numeric input junkie uses the right pinkie a lot, so right button on the trackball would come...

Thanks much for the link! This cable supports every resolution I've thrown at it without sense line adaptation. I've packed it up with my portable desoldering/soldering equipment. It's custom made, both ends of the cable are off the shelf connectors. If I can't figure it out with a multi-meter...

I've got a "magical" video cable that supports any resolution chosen in the Monitors Control Panel from my 6360 or VidCard. No VGA adapter is required for a change! ISTR using it with Beige G3 and a couple of others. Has anyone got links handy for building them?

Thanks for the help, gang. Planning to try the PWM fans in there first just cuz. If they don't work out the Quiet Noctuas seem the ticket. Did a quick prototype of the Front Panel. It'll be mounted lower, and thinner with size appropriate standoffs for the components. Need a bit more clearance...

Didn't someone come up with a stand-in for (non-functional?) SWIM that allows the machine to boot? ASC and SWIM are in a lot more Macs than GLUE, so that'd be the only severely limiting factor to a new build? I really wish someone would contact the woz to see if he'd put his rainbow hat on and...

Excellent, if someone can reverse engineer and recreate the GLUE ASIC, what other Apple Silicon would be in the way of doing an SE/30/Loaded build sans Custom Apple silicon infestation?

Soon after getting my SE in the day. I fabricated the most simple angled stand possible from 14" clear Plexiglas. It amounts to a "Z" with front riser of a couple of inches, footplate angled down and back with an up angle in the rear to keep it from sliding off. Lost to time, but I can fab...

Neanderthaler hacking approach appeals to me. "Well documented" and Apple Literature seem mutually exclusive in docs of that era. Building a NuBus Card was "well documented" in DCaDftMF, with several examples given, but none in complete form save for the "NuBus Test Card."

GLUe and assorted ASICs are old tech with much larger/thicker inner workings than later tech. They should be vulnerable to scraping/reverse engineering attacks, no? Can Apple's custom silicon disassembled and recreated in this manner with today's tech or in the near future?

Yep, figured it was a product pic that I happened to run across. Notion it to print it sized to an LCD, same scale for the PC. But the leg would be hollow to run wires to the display, maybe all printed together as a unit with removable front bezel and lid?

Cool, welcome aboard! What do you plan to use the interface with? You picked a fabulous thread for further development, so much great stuff has gone before!

Thanks! So I should be able to treat them like two pin fans using the non-PWM controllers above? Going with the ultra quiet 1200 RPM fans. "1200rpm 3-pin version with excellent balance of performance and quietness, speed can be controlled with optional NA-SRC10 Low-Noise Adaptors or by reducing...

Noted, Plan B initiated...

Interesting about the fan controller, thanks! I guess we'll see how that works out, it explains how they hook up to 12v/GND inputs, was wondering about that. MacSD does indeed look cool, but mass storage is a 2.5" Savvio UltraSCSI Server Drive/Apple Card like the high end MiniTower setups. I've...

Makes sense for modern systems, but is there a way to sense temperature of a Beige G3 CPU or need to do so? Even with a "hot" accelerator, ducting air directly thru the heatsink, that fan running at half speed ought to suffice? Noise should be less than my MDD, no?
