    PowerMac/Performa 5xxx NOS tube swaps directly into slot load iMac G3

    Actually got it on eBay for about a hunge shipped. Screamin’ deal, all things considered. Also have a NOS analog board for the 5400, too. When I finally got around to testing the 5400 I have it turns out the tube is basically brand new tier already, and Techknight informed me that the new tube...

    PowerMac/Performa 5xxx NOS tube swaps directly into slot load iMac G3

    This is an informational post to confirm for any hopeful future googlers that the tube from a Power Macintosh/Performa 5xxx series swaps directly into a slot loading iMac G3 (at least my early 400mhz DV) with no issues. There’s a dynamic purity/moire coil on the iMac tube that doesn’t exist on...

    iMac G3 - Capacitior List?

    Thanks! No worries! Thanks for making the list. Saved me a *ton* of time and effort. Anyone else who finds this thread, please note that the digikey list I linked above does have the capacitors annotated both by designator and which board they go on, but still doesn't include the changes from...

    iMac G3 - Capacitior List?

    Welp, I used this list for my 400mhz Indigo DV. Here's the notes I have: Some of the 16v caps in the list are 25v on my board. All 16v caps in the list can be replaced with 25v to mitigate this issue, there's plenty of space. Analog board: C905 is 560uf instead of the 470 that the list has...

    SD Card Icons for System 7

    I suppose spite is as good enough a reason to begin an artistic endeavor as any. Probably the only good thing clankers have accomplished recently is driving actual artists to make more art. @MacJunky any chance at a download for the color versions?

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    I think youtube doesn't like links in comments, or it might be a per channel settings or something. Not sure. I did tell them what to google and who it was by :-) And yeah, that was a thing. Jobs really didn't like the Molar, despite it being a Johnny Ives-pushed design. Whatshisname, the guy...

    SDL2 for classic MacOS "rough draft"

    This is so insanely exciting. I'm working on a game in Godot and wanted to look into backporting it after I was done with it, and was *not* looking forwards to having to make my own renderer. Being able to use SDL2 will make it so much easier!

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    I used the Mouser cart link, of which there was only one for the Wings, so I'm assuming that's the combined version.

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Just an update - both the Whisper and the Wings seem to be working perfectly in 8.6 with the 9.2 USB extensions. Soft power with my iKey and all. Funny seeing a computer this old call a modern gaming mouse by name (my g400S). Thanks for all the assistance. If anyone wants a finished Whisper with...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Okay I've got my Wings card populated. It was a lot more work because it had SMD on both sides of the board, hunting for R182 and R183 in particular was a bear. Haven't tested yet but I see no reason it wouldn't work. I don't suppose you'd happen to have a schematic for the 5xxx front panel...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Ok so I got my Macally in and I can report that the soft power circuit is working fine. Sadly the AEK II caps aren’t quite compatible with the Macally, mainly the command and control keys are too wide and the shift keys use two sliders on the Macally while the AEK II uses a single switch and...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Alright, here’s what I’ve done. I ordered a MacAlly iKey. I noticed they’ve had a whole bunch of keyboards with power buttons but I believe only the original iKey series and the iKey slim are configured to actually activate a Mac soft power circuit. Later ones seem to just do a ctrl+eject. It...

    Getting G3 Whisper Perch USB working

    Because they aren't beige! While not beige this is extremely cool and I'll probably pick one up just to have. just found this while looking around on lowendmac https://www.ebay.com/itm/256573577651? Macsense UKB-600, slightly smaller than the Macally and far rarer, but with another full size...
