I just finished recapping it, ill post a photo of the damage if there is any
After a million years after asking about people experience with lag and such with them, I've bought a Wombat ADB-to-USB adapter to use on my old Macs. The cats have destroyed my original ADB peripherals. Still love them though.

7.5.3 Clean universal install, this message pops up - weird.

I remember my old Multiple Scan 15 would happily switch to a resolution it darn tooting couldn't run, thus damaging itself.

512x384 is the biz! Give that iMac the Color Classic feels!

Bought a Radeon 7000 PCI graphics card for my Macintosh Server G3

I will have to get some replacement case parts and bottom handles for it

My SE/30 sometimes makes this Sad Mac tone (in this case due to a poorly seated SIMM) – it's not often heard and the first half sounds a bit like a Game Boy. I wonder what it means and what fault causes it to play that specific tone.

I've heard that before but couldn't find a failsafe way to reproduce it. But it does indeed seem to be RAM related...

I have a quick video that shows off the four different death chime variations on my IIci:


Sounds like yours is Error4Handler. Unfortunately the leaked SuperMario source code doesn't explain the difference between Error3Handler and Error4Handler, so we'd probably have to disassemble the ROM to figure it out. I agree though, it's almost certainly a RAM test failure.
Teaser.... 🤫

Things have changed. Looks like I'm doing shipping of some stuff afterall.

If, you have anything in mind, let me know.

Also, I'm going to post pics to this forum tomorrow night, Thursday and Friday. However, I'm not at all familiar with this forum. It's different from Reddit, so I'll have to figure out how to do that.
Here's a Macintosh Server G3 Blue and White that I bought on eBay for a future restoration project

I need to get some case parts and a graphics card for it alongside with the proper IDE hard drive cable

Hi there Caymac!

I've been talking to ZigZagJoe about his SE/30 Booster CPU accelerator PDS card. He mentioned that you are working on a replacement SE/30 32-bit clean ROM that would likely work well with the ROM boost feature on his accelerator.

Do you have any 32-bit clean SE/30 ROMs that you would be willing to sell yet?

Kind regards

Hi, that's wonderful news, thank you! I would just need one ROM for an SE/30 please. How much would it be with postage to the UK?

To calculate postage my address is:

Greetings Maz1zzz,

I was curious to know if I was able to get my name on one of the Rocket SCSI Boosters, as I have been following this thread for some time now.

Can you kindly put me down for one!

Feel free to inform me as to the total cost involved for a Chicago U.S.A. location! 😎

Most Appreciative,

Michael
