Re: 3400c USB Card
Ah, we need an FAQ . . . You don't need to ship it for an upgrade. Just buy a generic USB card and file the little key-slot thing off it. Then it will fit in your card-cage. I got mine new from ebay for about 20 sterling. Caveats: 1) you'll need to use tomeviever or get the hacked installer to install the USB extensions from Apple. 2) You have to insert the card after booting, or it is neither recognised or ejectable). Which means (if you think about it) you have to eject it before shutting down, this is a bit of a pain. 3) You'll want to put it in the top slot if you have any other card installed (e.g. modem.) . .. and it eventually will wiggle your ram card loose, giving very wierd freezes /crashes, so do open it all up and reseat your ram every 6 months or so!

(Or would you also say that attaching a mouse to the ADB port is upgrading?) The point is that you can (as is shown repeatedly on this list about 5 or 6 times a year it seems, and can easily be found by searching the list archives) use a USB card in an *unmodified* 3400. You do, however, generally need to alter the end of the card in the prescribed manner to allow it to fit properly. As an aside, I've got a USB card that I use in my 3400 and I was able to use it without modifying the end. It *is* a tight fit, though, so I'd heartily recommend spending a few minutes with an XActo knife. The expensive CardBus modification only puts in a card cage that's got the proper keying for CardBus cards, and provides some electronic signal isolation between cards (if you've got two inserted). Note that this only comes into play on rare occasions when there are two high speed CardBus cards in. Given the number of folk that report successfully using FireWire cards, this ground plane portion of the mod is apparently unnecessary in most common circumstances. I suspect that most modern cards have better, lower power components and simply aren't as noisy. In short, this is like those sports records with the asterisks -- the 3400 is fully CardBus capable, with the asterisk that you need to alter the keying on the end of the card to ensure proper function. Hopefully that puts this to bed for the next few months.

Nice sarcasm. Good for you. Here's the deal. You aren't adding any new capability to a 3400c when you use CardBus cards. The capability to work with CardBus cards already exists on the 3400c. You just have to alter the cards to make them fit. Your argument is like saying you're upgrading your car when you use snow chains on the tires instead of just using your lame-o all seasons. That's a stretch. You might be able to argue that adding USB to the 3400c is an upgrade, and I might buy that, but saying that simply using any CardBus card with a 3400c - that OUT-OF-THE-BOX can work with CardBus cards (with a tiny modification to the card) - is an upgrade to the 3400c doesn't jive with me. By the way, when you swap CD-ROM modules, you aren't upgrading your 3400c. You are upgrading the CD-ROM module!

Re: Software for ADS USB card
Good morning, Thanks for taking time to try and help with my USB card issue. The link you provided is useful in other aspects and I will download other software from it for updates and enhancements. I have determined that the ADS USB card was originally designed for use with Windows machines. Apple licensed ADS to write Mac software for it but when the card was improved up by a newer model the operating software disappeared. I'm guessing the Apple license agreement directed that to happen. I was hoping someone on the list might have the ADS USB card software from an original card purchase and could share it with me. Thanks again for your time and effort. I'll keep plugging along with hope of using the USB card at some point in the future.

Re: Software for ADS USB card
You have a PCMCIA slot, don't you? If your camera takes flash cards, get a PC card holder. It's usually much faster to transferring directly from the card than transferring from the camera. If you are trying to control the shutter of your camera from the computer, then that is another matter.

Re: USB Card for PowerBook 1400
I know it's been said already, but there's no way to make a CardBus card work in your 1400; the PCMCIA controller in the 1400 is not CardBus-capable. You can shoehorn a CardBus card into a 2400 or 3400 because it has a controller capable of CardBus, but unfortunately not the 1400. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
