Re: 12 Monitor
Hi. Can anyone tell me the secret to getting the cover off a 1990 Macintosh 12 RGB Display? You got it off already? IIRC, you have to rotate it slightly upward while pulling, because there's a finder holding front and back together on the top side, halfway. -mart -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: renaming a hard drive
Rob, Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately Rename Rescue didn't help, but I googled for that and found it at MacFixIt.com - I've gotta bookmark that site and look through the rest of their system utilities. As I said, Rename Rescue didn't help, but UnLock Folder did the trick. I found that one also at MacFixIt. Thanks so much!

Fwd: Mac IIci OS restore
Hi All, This is my first post. I was recently given a Mac IIci, everything seemed to be fine when I got it, until I proceeded to trash the OS. I obviously deleted a few files that I shouldn't have :-) I don't have the original setup disks that the machine came with nor any other Mac software. I downloaded System 7.5.3 from Apple. My problem is that all of the files are in Mac binary format and I only have Linux PCs at my disposal. I can mount HFS diskettes and I have the macutils package for Linux installed. Does anyone know of a way that I can re-install the Mac with my current resources, or should I just find someone with the OS setup disks. Any South Africans on this list, especially someone from Gauteng? Cheers Ross Addis -- No Microsoft product was used in any way to write or send this text.

The LC040 just falls flat on it's face when you throw math functions at it where as the 040 has the FPU to deal with them. Funny, that, because the LC040 still beats up on the 68030 with the 68882.
