PowerBook 145 trade

2004-07-21 Thread VicNaz1 
I surely have something I could trade but honestly Dick, a powerbook with a 
good modem and a CD-ROM drive set up to do light duty internet is worth a lot 
more than that 145. If we did a swap you'd probably owe me like $60. Are you OK 
with that?

To be honest I'm not sure if I still even have the PB around here or not.  
I'll check, but today I'm going to be getting ready for Kfest. (Those of 
you who remember the Apple II might remember that little computer 
convention.  :) )

Powerbook 145

2004-07-18 Thread Howard R. Katz 
My PB 100 series machine needed to have a modem card installed in it when 
it was still operable.  And I added ethernet using an Ethernet/SCSI 
adapter.  You might want to look on ebay for both items.  :)

It was a nice machine, but I got tired of the greyscale screen.  The PB 
520c's color screen was a major improvement.  :)

TCP/IP over localtalk can be done, but it's not DHCP; it's MacIP 
(over localtalk).  You need to be running an additional software on 
the LCII.  Doing this from the G3 would be harder unless it's one 
with a localtalk serial port (if so, then do it from the G3 would be 
my recommendation).
The MacIP to IP function and the LocalTalk Bridge function do not 
need to be on the same computer.  You can route IP to MacIP over 
EtherTalk on the G3 and then change to MacIP over LocalTalk on the 
LCII.

See IPNetRouter from www.sustworks.com, there is also a much more 
expensive solution that works a little better from ... Vicom; 
VicomSoftRouter IIRC.  IPNetRouter has some bugs in it but they 
should only show up if you try and use the MacIP connection from a 
Newton Messagepad :) for desktops it should be OK.  IIRC IPNR has a 
long demo so you can futz with it for a while.
IPNR has always been good for me but have never used it with a Newton 
that I can recall.

Whether you use IPNR or Vicom you need to configure it to work with 
the existing router.  My router didn't work with IPNR as a separate 
subnet.  I had to configure IPNR as a NAT router so the MacIP 
addresses were masqueraded behind it.  I don't have any hard data but 
I suspect a lot of the inexpensive hardware routers are like this.

You would then connect via MacIP option on the 145.  I think the 145 
should have that capability.

Networking on a Powerbook 145

2004-06-14 Thread Terence Dennis Sherman 
Hi all.

In the interest of the "because I can" spirit, I am attempting to network 
my Powerbook 145. I've gotten as faras to get it all localtalked and 
appletalking to the other Macs, but I want to get it on the internet, 
i.e., be able to telnet. Currently, the network looks something like this:

(internet)--(router/DHCP server)--(G3)
|
  (Mac LC III)===(powerbook 145)

-'s are ethernet/cat5
='s are localtalk.

The LC III is a localtalk bridge, and, thusly, I can see the powerbook in 
the chooser from the G3. Hoever, I would like to get the PowerBook a 
TCP/IP addy. I cannot use Open Transport, as I do not have enough RAM to 
install it, so I'm cursed with MacTCP 2.0.6. 

I've heard that I can get TCP/IP over localtalk with MacTCP, but it fails 
to obtain an IP address from the DHCP server like the other computers. 
I've always failed to get MacTCP to work, so I'm asking for help this 
time.

Peace and Love,
Terry

That's a newer power supply for the 180c and 160c.  The other 
machines in the 100 series (excluding the 100) only require a 7.5V 2A 
supply but they can work with the 3A.

Ah. I had been through Apple's site, but was unable to find any reference
as to its output. Thank you very much for the information.

I believe that it uses the same one as the 150/165/170. They are labeled:

7.5V, 3A.

Drop a line off-list if you want one "reasonably priced."

Powerbook 145 power supply specs

Hello Everyone!

I recently bought a Powerbook 145 on EBay. It seems to work fine save one
thing: I do not have a power supply for it. Of course, I have dozens of
old laptop power supplies from Zeniths and such back in my closet, so,
does anyone know the output specs needed on a Powerbook 145 PS, that I may
not have to buy one?

Peace and Love,
