Re: Q605 should be here Monday

And the Apple 16 Color, too.  Actually, just about anything will work with it,
but to get 832x624, you're pretty much limited to Apple-, SuperMac- and
Radius-branded monitors, since that's a Mac-specific resolution.  There are a
*ton* of monitors that'll do either SVGA or XGA (1024x768), though.


H, my Sony GDM-17SE1 with the Belkin adapter does 832x624 w/o problems.
So does my Sony CPD-1304S...  On both my C650, and my 7100/80...

Is the Griffin monitor database still up?  That has lots of good info in it.

Re: Quadra floppy drive

2003-01-29 Thread John Laughlin
Funny you should ask.  The 11G was used in a lot of IIci's.  In fact, I
have the one from my IIci out at the moment (gotta get another PRAM
battery and a PS, then reassemble the thing), and it's the 11G version. 
I learned early on with one of my Macs to keep a floppy disk partially
inserted, to prevent dust from being sucked into the drive.

Jeff's post - SNIP

Michael, same here.  Picked up a set of 4 from him when they were $39.99
for my old IIsi, which, btw, did run MacOS 8.1 for a while, with Born
Again...  Waiting for it to check the RAM was the longest part of booting
it up, tho.

I've never had a problem with SUNGUK after two transactions with him.

In case you're keeping score: After losing my previous pet SE/30 to
theft, I have acquired three or four non-working SE/30s that need repair.

Re: Hard drive problem

Try Disk Warrior. It has a scavenge mode, I think. I haven't used it for
that but I seem to remember seeing this info cross one of the lists.

It does have something like that.  If it can't rebuild the directory on a
disk, what it'll let you do is preview the directory, so you can get access
to the files.  But, it'll only do that, if the drive (or floppy) is
mountable, but nothing shows up in the root folder.  At least, that's been
my experience.

Re: Auto Inject Floppy Drives

2003-01-07 Thread John Laughlin
Could someone please clarify me on this as my 610 floppy drive does do an
auto eject, but I have to push the floppy into the drive so I do not have an
auto inject.  Is there a difference, or is this just terminology slang for
this style of floppy drive?

You must have a Quadra 610, which has the later style manual-inject floppy
with the black door that covers the opening.  Does your computer have what
looks like a pair of lips around the middle of the slot for the floppy
drive?  On the older drives, you do have to push it in a bit, but there's a
spring that sucks the floppy down into the drive once you get past the
resistance.  On the later drives, you have to push it all the way in, then
it'll drop down.

This is not meant to be a joke because on my iMac it has a DVD slot that
does suck the CD-ROM in and I don't have to push it in.  I consider auto
loading to be auto injecting.

John

Re: QuadDoubler results are in!!!

2002-12-24 Thread John Laughlin
They both had Ethernet on-board, and neither would benchmark faster in
Speedometer.

Er, not necessarily.  Remember, the 4MB Centris 650 doesn't have ethernet,
or a full '040.  So, there's a GOOD chance that the board Dan has is the
base Centris 650 board.

Re: back on topic - 610 RAM

2002-12-20 Thread John Laughlin
John, I'd put in as much RAM as you can afford...  Photoshop 2.5 (yes,
I'm dating myself) works fine on just about any '030 or newer Mac, and
is reasonably fast.  My 650 works just fine for image manipulations,
but, since I also have a PowerMac 7100/80 (which is inside a 650 case,
btw), I usually use that one as my daily driver, and keep the 650
around for playing games like Arkanoid (1.1 runs fine on any Mac that
can do 24-bit addressing).

 If the extra RAM will make it able to do image manipulations, even slowly
 compared to today's standards, it would be worth it for me.
 
 Thanks,
