http://cuc.mine.nu/cam.shtml

a webcam run through my pm7600, monitoring my computer lab/garage/junk storage. With a little luck you can find me and my friends in there on friday/saturday nights CET , but most likely you will only see arrangements of toys. I also made a night light out of a red LED, but it´s not strong enough to actually light anything up .

But on the other hand..
We are having a small bit of trouble with the way the picture is updated, but it has been running nicely for most of the time.
Oh well, gotta fix it this weekend (or something)

That's a fun use for a 7600 -- and perfect light level for the "night" light. Any chance you could tell us about the hardware and software that you used for this webcam?

Cheers,

I like how now you have a sign that says 'night'

About what time might I be able to pop on and see it during the day

The camera is a normal videocamera connected to the 7600 with a composite video cable.
The software it is running is macos 9.1 (i think) and the program used for fetching the picture is VideoScript (or something like that). The picture is hosted at the 7600 (MacHTTP), but the page is located on one of my servers.
So, there you have it

Thanks for the info. BTW, I especially like this picture from your site:

http://cuc.mine.nu/gfx/tehlab/Bild%2028.jpg

I would also encourage you to contribute what ever you know about any of the old computers that you have to either http://www.machine-room.org/ or http://www.old-computers.com/ . For example, not much is known about your Esselte 100 shown in:

http://cuc.mine.nu/gfx/tehlab/Bild%2048.jpg

Have a great day/evening/night/morning/etc.

I think onionkid said something that he was going to do that, but I'm not really sure. I'm not sure we know so much about it ourselves..

LOL! I also have many pieces of computer equipment that I know too little about.

BTW, I ran across another computer collector in your country who is at http://www.pugo.org .

Ah, the Ess100-documentation, almost forgot about it .
the camera is now aimed at my p475 which is currently working as a scanner computer as the Color OneScanner isnt supported by X, and theres no room for it near any of the PM:s. ohwell, time for porridge, laters

hehehe.... I got 8 new computers JUST last summer... PAF was going great until they decided we had to move to AZ

got the 7300 and the 6500 anyway though... and when dad found out I *still had* the IIsi and we ended up keeping the PB100 (was going to ship to boredom)

WOW!

I almost came down here with either only the imac, or just the iMac and the PBG4!!!!!!

OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!

thanks doofsmack for the great deal on the 7300, and GoMac for the free 6500...

and big boxes for hiding the IIsi in
