Re: ADB KVM Switch?

2016-02-06 Thread Tim Martin
If my memory is correct you didn't need switches since ADB was
daisychainable theoretically up to 128 devices all/most keyboards had two
sockets I have the old Kensington TrackBall which has two sockets. I do
remember some Apple video switches but I never bought or used one -
possibly because I thought them prohibitively expensive.

Almost all macs had two ADB ports as standard.

I remember doing jokey demonstrations for students with 3 or 4 keyboards
plugged in and more than one pointing device ... all on one device for
collaborative editing !!!

I cannot remember ever daisychaining two macs to the same keyboard and
mouse. You provoke me to a test.

I don't remember ever seeing an ADB switch. I still use the Griffin USB to
ADB converter when using my old 4-button Kensington Turbo Mouse with modern
machines.

ADB protocols continued to be available in machines with no ADB ports - the
trackpads on the first 17" Powerbook was internal ADB and ADB worked in OSX.

Re: Vintage Mac Recommendation

2015-08-18 Thread Tim Martin
I have many old macs but the three machines I have kept for legacy access
are my Quadra 800, a Wallstreet 292 and a Quicksilver 2002 each of which I
have upgraded and maxed out to enable access to almost any conceivable
legacy drives and operating systems running native ... Anything that
requires systems older than 7.1 - I run in emulators like Sheepshaver.

My experience varies but I find going back to the Quadra so slow now ... I
prefer to run the software in emulation on faster machines ...

The Quadra has a Sonnet PPC card so it thinks its a 110 MHz PPC - its
reboot switchable back to 68040 33Mz. And so will run 7.1 upwards to 8.6.
Internal bays for scsi and external daisy chain - mine has a 2GB scsi Jaz
drive internal as well as DVD/CD writer.

The Wallstreet feels much faster and still quite modern and can run 8.1
through 10.4 - I fitted 512Mb of memory and the Sonnet G4 500 CPU upgrade -
again its got the direct scsi chain port and has zip drive/floppy drive
modules as well as CD player ... It's primary limitation is the amount of
HD space it can access for an OS X booting volume - only first 8GB of a 30
GB Internal

The Quicksilver 2002 had a Sonnet Duet 2x 1.8Ghz PPC G4 CPU upgrade and a
PCI SCSI card and Sata(bootable) Sonnet Card and USB2 and Firewire 800 card
so is a very fast capable transfer machine with a 2TB Sata drive and size
unlimited ATA bus and will boot native into OS 9 or OS X up to 10.5 Leopard
(not Snow Leopard) with a Radeon display card it ran my Cinema HD nicely
too.

These three machines have covered most needs for backward compatibility
over the years and because of the upgrades held their own against later
machines for quite some time - but I cannot say the upgrade costs could be
justified and nowadays are almost unobtainable at any price.

My current machines are a MacMini 2Core 2.7 i7 mid 2011 ... which despite
starting out with 10.7 downgrades nicely to run Snow Leopard very stably -
creating a bridge back to legacy PPC software - which Rosetta runs
flawlessly ... so I have 10.6.8 on one internal HD and Yosemite 10.10.5 and
El Capitan 10.11 on a 4TB external Thunderbolt Goflex Adaptor I also have a
4TB Seagate USB3 drive which I use with the MacMini as bootable back up and
a link disk since it boots Snow Leopard and Yosemite on MacMini and my USB
only (G) 13 MacBook5,1 Core 2 Duo 2 GHz.

One option that might help you if you can find it is the SCSI to FIrewire
SCSIBee (?) box which enables scsi drives to be connected to FireWire - I
have run my SCSI 2GB External Jaz Drive off my MacMini that way - and it
worked before with the QuickSilver 2002 and the Wallstreet (with a FireWire
PCBus Card) - [but no booting through Firewire on the Wallstreet but then
its got native IDE internal and SCSI on the rear port].

These are my absolute classic macs - and they cover most of the
connectivity and access issues with old media, OS’s and software that I’ve
had to deal with ... I've hung on to a bunch of old drive enclosures so
internals can become externals - but the new cheap TB drives and SATA on
Thunderbolt will take some beating ... and its really time to organise all
that legacy stuff by processor, by OS, by application software and by
useage ...

Don’t know if any of the above is helpful but the above is a practical
distillation down from a lot of other stuff - I use to be responsible for
some extensive educational training suites trying to maintain the evolving
industrial state of the art as standard. Its surprising how often legacy
access issues come up.

Good luck and best wishes.

 So the goal is to get a mac that I can easily swap the scsi hard drives

 I have been looking at cheap Quadra 650's on eBay and craigslist.

 Question - Is there a different vintage mac, perhaps all in one, that
 would allow easy swap ability of the scsi hard drives?  That way I may not
 have to find an old dinosaur monitor too?


 If I recall correctly the all-in-one machines switched to an ATA disk
 around the change to PPC processors, but I think still had SCSI... so they
 may work but check carefully. I think I have a Performa 5260 somewhere I
 should dig out for reference.

 It sounds to me like the later 68K macs (Quadra  Centris) or an early
 PowerMac would fit your needs well. They will all still have a SCSI bus and
 should boot your disk or use multiple disks fine, and run OS 7 or OS 8 as
 needed. (Obviously check the specific machine capabilities, I'm
 generalizing.) A Pizza Box mac like the Performa 4xx might work as well,
 at least OS 7, and would save some space.

 A Mac II series machine will also work fine for OS7, but probably not with
 OS8

Re: iMate battery life?

2012-05-27 Thread Tim Martin
Keyboard power on or soft-power start is really useful if you've got a big
noisy box like an old maxxed out Quicksilver (I think my Sonnet dual 1.8
Ghz QS2002 must be one of the fastest native OS 9 machines going) and have
moved it off/or under your desk or into an adjacent sound deadening
cupboard.

Definitely one of the features I'd vote Apple should bring back - if you
can shut down from the keyboard - why can't you start up!? It doesn't seem
logical Captain. I hope someone's going to tell me there's a keyboard
shortcut I've missed these last ten years!

And which was the last soft-power start up Mac? Seems it might be similar
to the scheduled startup features that required a Macintosh G3 or G4 made
before September 2002, or iMac made before September 2000.

This might also explain why so few of us knew about that battery in the
iMate, if it's sole function was to enable the keyboard 'soft start'
trigger, those machines are getting old that could respond to it!

 The keycaps are of varying depths-thing is a new one on me (at least,
 in conjunction with the AEK II) and I can't get to my own AEK IIs right
 now to start yanking keys off them in order to see what it is you're
 referring to.


 A view of the top and bottom of the keys:

 Apologies for the truly filthy state of those keys.  They’re from a spare
 AEKII I got as a freebie that I subsequently took apart for the switches
 inside.  I kept the keys “just in case”, but never got around to cleaning
 them since I haven’t needed them.  Some of the keys don’t actually vary in
 depth: the length of the stem that attaches to the switch varies, which
 accounts for the difference.


  Maybe it's just me, but I'm puzzled as to why Apple didn't build the AEK
 II in such a way that keycaps of varying depths -weren't- required.
 Requiring keycaps of different depths must have complicated the
 manufacturing process for the keycaps quite a bit, what with at least 3
 different key depths being necessary.


 I’d count it as five, since there are five rows.  Possibly six, if the
 function keys were of a different height yet again.  I don’t imagine it
 made manufacture too difficult: just six moulds, then dye-sub the legends
 onto the appropriate keys.  Still, it *would* make more sense from a cost
 basis to have them all the same size.


  I mean, the Apple Extended Keyboard was, more or less, Apple's answer to
 IBM's venerable Model M keyboard that sold with the Personal System/2
 machines (which also came out in 1987).  Yet the keycaps on the Model M
 are of exactly the same height and coverting a qwerty Model M to a
 Dvorak layout doesn't result in a bumpy keyboard:

 http://www.pigdog.org/model_m_**retrofit.htmlhttp://www.pigdog.org/model_m_retrofit.html


 The difference is that the Model M has a curved backplate, which raises
 the same-height keys to different levels, whereas the AEKII *doesn’t* have
 a curved backplate: the switches are mounted directl on the PCB, which is
 a flat surface.  (The Model M is a truly excellent keyboard as well,
 though I’m so used to my AEKII that I prefer the feel of its ALPS switches
 to the M’s buckling springs.)


  Did Apple ever offer a Dvorak version of the AEK/AEKII?  Or were Dvorak
 users never given a choice but to go the bumpy route if they wanted
 such a layout?


 I don’t think so, but I could be wrong.  I’ve definitely never seen one
 for sale, though I imagine Dvorak users would hold onto them like they
 were gold-dust since, if they *did* exist, they’re much rarer than the
 regular QWERTY layout.  Whilst googling it, I came across a how-to for a
 DIY Dvorak layout on an AEKII, which further reinforces my conclusion that
 they didn’t make one:


 http://boredzo.org/blog/**archives/2007-02-03/how-i-**learned-dvorakhttp://boredzo.org/blog/archives/2007-02-03/how-i-learned-dvorak
 

 Once you know a layout well enough, you don’t really need to look at the
 keyboard anyway, so maybe Dvorak users just made do with QWERTY layouts to
 avoid the “bumpy” problem?

Re: iMate battery life?

2012-05-10 Thread Tim Martin
Nearly ten years of occasional use and I never realised there was a battery
in it!! Still going - maybe that's why you had so few replies – we didn't
know we had batteries!!  I hope the Lithium battery in my pacemaker lasts
as long!! (I'm told it wont).

I've had a Griffin iMate since at least 2003 and still use it for ADB
Trackballs and plugging in the occasional ADB Qwerty keyboard I use in
setting up other operating systems – native or virtual that don't configure
for Dvorak layouts out of the box/at startup (I still have and occasionally
use a couple of ADB Apple Extended Keyboard II's – 1 qwerty and one 'bumpy
ploughed field' reconfigured dvorak layout keycaps!)

Do you mean the introduction to the Mac interface called Mac Basics?
