Re: DTMF Re: Drain Crawler

2001-08-07 Thread Adam

Stripped down
 versions often came with answering machines for
 remote control, those were popular with hackers since
 with a little work they could do the same things
 as the more expensive DTMF dialers. :)

These tone diallers were/are also popular with what alot of people call
'hackers' as some types (most notoriously the Radio Shack ones) can be
re-crystalled and then used to defraud the coin tolling system used in
American payphones. Such a modified device is called a red box.

Unfortunately, the 'bot doesn't respond to DTMF tones, rather it responds to
single and compund tones in the 1000-2800Hz range. If I can find a tone
generation util, I'll try it, otherwise I'll just have to substitute my PC's
Creative AWE-32.

Also, IIRC, HyperCard 1.(something) could also be used to dial a phone
number directly trough the modem. In this case you could hook up your rotary
phone (Geez, I'm 18 and I remember these) and your Plus' modem in series and
enjoy Mac controlled DTMF. Neat.

Cheers,
Adam.

I'm working in an elementary school that uses IIci's and some IIcx's

 There's NOTHING awful about those little gems.

Yeah, I quite like them too (and so does the IIsi).

 Don't worry about it, I'm 19 and *use* a rotary
 phone.

Heh, I'm 30 and remember when there was ONE style
of phone available, supplied by Ma Bell. They
had about 3 colors to choose from. They were rented,
not sold. Eventually, if you wanted, you could
buy your own phones, but they still had the same old
Ma Bell supplied innards. Finally the companies
that wanted to make their own complete phones got
the government to make the telcos allow equipment
not supplied by them to be connected to the phone
system. Of course that all happened in the 1970's
before you were born. ;) When that change happened,
magazines like Popular Science ran articles on all
the neat custom phones you could now buy.

 That's a lot more trouble than you might expect from

Which is why I haven't tackled the upgrade on my

make a website with a lot more details of the hack. :)

Quicken on a Mac

2001-08-07 Thread Wllms88

I'm late getting to the digest so if this has been answered I'm sorry. I use 
Quicken on a IIcx and a IIsi with no problems. However; I use an older 
version. It works very well for myself. I got it off a Performa CD on E bay 
for a buck.

Have a good day all.

Now I feel terribly old.  At 38, I think back on 18.  I just can't 
conceive of being 18 anymore.  I have socks that are that 
oldhehehehe I remember having that wonderful old Western Electric 
rotary dial phone when I was growing up.  I also remember having a black

OK, how about a hand cranked battery powered phone with which you 
contacted Central to get a line out of the neighborhood? Yeah, in the 
'50s in rural Oregon.

Now I sit here playing with a 4 machine home network (6100s, 6300s and a 
'doze box) with a DSL line. Oh the times, they are a changin'.
