I don't know much about GALs, but from those equations it looks like it's just combinatorial logic? I've been playing a bit with the Lattice FPGAs that somebody made an open source toolchain for, and if I'm reading this correctly it'd be extremely simple to implement in one of those. The syntax...

Not tried that, but I have a very generic-looking PCMCIA SD card reader that works fine with my Lombard.

This'd be a great service, I think.

Mine says FPU: Built-in Hardware FPU: Yes.

Well, mine just arrived and it appears to be a genuine full 68040, 33 MHz, according to TattleTech. This was the auction: https://www.ebay.de/itm/361225888013 I give them a low offer first, they returned with 43USD.

I have 132 mb in the Quadra 650 I'm putting together. It takes ages to boot and I can't see myself ever using half of it, even doing audio. Nice job on the troubleshooting here.

Gulp. I just ordered a 33 mhz 68040 from Hong Kong. Hoping it'll be a good one, will be sure to report back.

Hi, I can't help you much with troubleshooting, but generally in electronics just become something burns doesn't really mean it was causing the problem, it just means that something went wrong, somewhere, and this part was the one that couldn't take it. The most common type of component to fail...

I have an Acard thing that I've used both for spinning drives and CF cards in adaptors.

Very nice!

The problem is mainly convincing the Mac to speak ethernet across the SCSI bus and getting the STM32 to turn that into into something we can use. Depending on what actually goes over the SCSI bus, this can be quite trivial or require lots of reverse engineering. Networking on the STM32 side is...

This was very enjoyable. Also thank you for making it available via Vimeo so I could just download the file and play it locally.

Thanks for the info. I actually have a Mac Mini Core Duo with 10.6 collection dust, I'll try it on that.

The main programme I want to run (Reaktor 4) is PPC only, unfortunately, and I don't want another tower here, so the G5 iMac is my only option. 1.5x would be worth it though. Thanks for you reply.

I have a 1 GHz G4 iMac that I use for running a few music applications under Tiger. One of them is a bit heavy, and sometimes I think about getting a G5 iMac to replace it just for performance, although I much prefer the look of the G4. Does anybody know in some sort of numbers how big the...

Slight derail: Is it possible to make a passive ADB splitter? Like, take three female connecters with the datalines wired together to attach two peripherals to the same host? Is that basically what the extra connector in ADB keyboards are?

Welp - you snooze, you looze! http://alexhixon.com/jamport/index.html

I've heard (but not personally confirmed) that with early-gen New Worlds (and Old Worlds I'd assume) you have to stay below 127GB for the Mac to want to boot. I'd assume this also applies to anything on the other side of an adaptor.

The USB modem from the iMac G4 shows up in my backup Gigabit Ethernet tower under OS X, so there is a USB connection of sorts on that header as far back as that. It's a seventy pin connector, and handful of them are for serial, another two for USB...

The Lombard sees and talks to it fine, but it gets in the way of the keyboard so you can't actually reassemble it.. It'd definitely be possible to make one that fits, though, if anybody really wants a serial port in a Lombard or (I'd expect) Pismo. Does anybody have any idea what the type/part...
