Alex Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I just ordered this book I will be scanning it and uploading it to archive.org. Expect an update within a month or so. I hopefully plan to machine translate the book. That's all for now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mighty Jabba Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I'd be interested to see how well a machine translation of something like this turns out. I'm a Japanese translator so I've seen quite a few, shall we say, questionable translations based off of machine translation, but it is getting better. I would offer to help but unfortunately I don't have the time for something like this, although I could potentially help if you had a few questions. I also own a couple of Japanese books about Macintosh modification and the 2400c that were published in the early 2000s, but I'm not sure where they are at the moment.

Alex Posted November 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 (edited) I appreciate the enthusiasm. If you find those books, check if they are already on archive.org. If they aren't consider scanning them and uploading the scans to archive.org. Thank you for your interest! Edited November 17, 2019 by Alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charadis Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 I eagerly await the machine translation. I have this book, and there are a lot of nice pictures in it that I wish I can understand the captions to. Cheers, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonpurdy Posted February 27, 2020 Report Share Posted February 27, 2020 I just ordered a copy of the Perfect Guide, having forgotten about this post. I’ll scan and upload mine as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonpurdy Posted March 18, 2020 Report Share Posted March 18, 2020 Turns out that the copy I got is in nicer condition than I expected. I'd rather not flatten it and crease the spine for a flatbed scan, so I'm looking into an alternative way of scanning it now. (I don't even have a flatbed scanner here anyway.) Will update when I get this done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
