installing OS 9 on an OS X tibook

2005-11-09 Thread TVirkkala
A friend's TiBook went kerflewie. Classic stopped working. Her install 
disc of OS 9.2.2 fails. I'm going to help her with my 9.0.4 disc. 
Questions:


1. Will 9.0.4 actually install onto her computer?

2. Should we start up from the Install Disc, or from within OS X?

3. Should we trash all other classic OSes on the computer before going 
ahead with this re-install?


She's going to have to upgrade, update by update, to 9.2.2 from the 
discs. Any problem with this? Should it be done within OS X or 9?

Wallstreet and Duo

2005-10-28 Thread TVirkkala
I have a Wallstreet I. I used to have a bunch of Duos, before they were  
stolen. My Wallstreet runs on a Yo-Yo power adapter. I need another  
adapter. And I just found this:


http://cgi.ebay.com/Apple-G3-Wallstreet-Pismo-Lombard-Bronze-24V-AC- 
Adapter_W0QQitemZ5823935011QQcategoryZ80064QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem


It says that the Duos and the Wallstreets use the same power connector.

CAN THIS BE CORRECT?

Is it possible that my Duo power adapters (I've several) can run my  
Wallstreet?

Recommendation Request: wireless for a Wallstreet

2005-08-02 Thread TVirkkala
I have an old Wallstreet that works fine for me. Unfortunately, its 
portability is severely limited by a no-good battery and a lack of a 
wireless card.


I'll worry about the battery later. For now: what is the best and/or 
cheapest way to get wireless to my Wallstreet?


It has a modem in it, and it has an Ethernet plug in the back. I think 
both PCMCIA cards are available.


I'd appreciate vendor advice, as well as specific product advice. If 
possible.


I'm going to Seattle this week, iso I might be able to pick something 
up while I'm there. If there's a good vendor in Seattle. (The 
University District's Apple store didn't seem geared AT ALL for old 
Macs.)


It's a 250 MHz Wallstreet running OS 9.1. I may put a flavor of OS X on 
it later this year, simply because I love OS X and won't mind a speed 
reduction. I use it mainly for writing. I could easily make do with my 
280c, except for it lacks wireless and a battery as well.


Other uses:

FTP
minimal browsing
some email
occasional Yahoo Instant Messenger communications
occasional Finale work
