The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 16 Apr 2003 : 20:42:00 I've got a 631CD that a cat peed on and it still works pretty good (washed it(!)), so I could only imagine what one would be like in pristine condition.

VGplay Starting Member USA 15 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 13:16:25 Thanks everyone. It feels good to be welcomed. Not like that other board I go to. I'm new here.
cory5412 68KMLA Comrade-in-Arms USA 4679 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 13:58:40 hey! I'm glad to know we didn't scare you away! was the "other forum" by any chance a certain "AppleFritter"? Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide
VGplay Starting Member USA 15 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 14:06:53 No it was a forum for a program I use called 3D Movie Maker. I'm new here.
The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 14:22:09 All other boards are unwelcomeing. This is the most flame retardant forum I've ever seen. Gothikon: quote: It's got the AV cards, comm slot ethernet Just don't make the same mistake I did and get the CommSlot Ethernet that goes in the PowerMacs. It looks identical, only it's backwards! Make sure it's not The Comm Slot II and that it's a plain Comm Slot Ethernet. The notch in the connector should be toward the back of the card.
VGplay Starting Member USA 15 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 14:38:00 Anyone know some good software/games for it? I'll most likely be using it for simple internet. But want another use for it. I'm new here.
The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 14:45:25 The Lemmings series, Loom, and Monkey Island I and II come to mind.
The Lightning Stalker Full Member USA 747 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 14:46:17 Oh, and for word processing on it, I think it had ClarisWorks 3.0 or something.
Gothikon Full Member Australia 537 Posts	Posted - 17 Apr 2003 : 16:53:14 Marathon and Marathon 2 run superbly (M2 has an accelerated mode especially fo 630's) See if you can pick up the bungie mac action sack M1 M2 Minfinity <--(not so hot on the 630's but still playable) Absue Pathways in to darkness and Minataur The original version of warcraft 2 not the battlenet edition (which they made PPC only WTF??) Simcity 2000 most of the older ambrosia games Malestrom, Apeiron, bubble trouble All good stuff Oh, if you're upgrading the 1 slot can only take a 16MB SIMM the other can take a 32 but it's marked on the board anyway (p.s. nothing bad would happen if you mixed them up) If you want some other cheap upgrade Apple 8x CD drives are cheap as are 1 and 2 gig IDE disks -------- LC 2, LC 3, Q605, Perf 638, Colour Classic (160 603e) 6100, 7200, PTP 225 (Quad 604), PM 9600, G4 Cube

Dunno, I still haven't listed anything in my sig yet and I never even had a sig until after being asked to be a mod, so I don't think sig lists have much to do with being welcome. I have been trying to cut down on posting a little so I was a little late late chiming in, tho. jt ™. Trash Hauler: call sign: eight-ball C.O. AC-130H SpecOps 68kMLAAF

I talked to catsdorule and he was... interested that I had more posts than him... I want him to come back... one of the common misconceptions is that you have to have 68k in order to be a 68k MLA member... Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide
