IIci VS Q700. Re: Ripping Video
--- Marten van de Kraats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You have a Q700 yourself or a IIci? I've got both. The Q700 is rather limited with RAM expansion because it only has 4 simm slots to fill. Considering the fact that it is very hard to get 8 mb or higher 30 pin simms for this model and I'm not planning to spend any money on memory, I'm stuck with 20 mb maximum (that's including the 4 mb on board. The IIci has 8 simm slots, allowing 32 mb (8x4 mb). So it's 3 NuBus slots and 8 SIMM slots VS 2 NuBus and 4 SIMM. Now why in Job's name would anyone want a Q700? All it has going for it is the 040 CPU and built in Ethernet. If you're looking to upgrade from a fully packed IIci you have to leave off half your SIMMs and one NuBus card. Not too big a hurt if one's an Ethernet card. But what if you have a video card, a video capture card and a SCSI card like a Jackhammer? That puts the Q700 right out of contention! I wish I knew what Apple was thinking when they hobbled the Q700's expandability like that. :P Now an 040 in the II/IIx/IIfx case with six NuBus slots, 16 SIMM slots, built in 24bit video with dedicated VRAM, built in Ethernet, fast SCSI II, 16bit 44Khz stereo audio in and out, THAT woulda been a real killer Mac. ;) And it probably would've cost $10K just like the IIfx did to start with. = http://www.junkscience.com All the Junk that's fit to Debunk! __ Do You Yahoo!?

Mac II fan

I take it you are not the one paying the electricity bill in your household. Otherwise you might think a bit different about it... Mark, he has a point here. The IIci sucks electricity like nobody's business. Damn, not my problem - I'm setting this up for my dad remember :). What I still don't get is where the heck the need for IP addressing on an internal, not-connected-to-the-Internet, LAN is coming from. If you need to do file sharing in the absence of the iBook, you can - just not over TCP/IP. But file sharing over TCP/IP is outrageously slow (especially compared to just AppleTalk over Ethernet) anyway, so there's *no advantage* to it. Any other use that's been mentioned so far in this thread would require an Internet connection, thus necessitating the placement of the iBook *back* into the network. Read this : I am trying to provide a solution I can easily hook another OS X machine or a PC too should I have to. I am trying to create a flexible network infrastructure not just a bit of wet string to talk to a few Macs. I apologise again for swearing at you guys but it stands that I need and want DNS on the internal network, why are you trying to tell me I don't? I posted that before you know, did you read it? The fact is I use AppleTalk for file sharing but also use other *internal* TCP/IP services, such as my Intranet server on MY LCIII. If you can make iCab work via AppleTalk without TCP/IP so I can read the saved web-pages in my LCIII I'd be glad to try it. Until then I keep my IP addresses. Also this network is both on and off the internet and, when I eventually find a modem (which I decided was a prudent course of action) I will need TCP/IP to use it. Thirdly it is always my policy as a network admin that a machine that may be capable of TCP/IP on a network is assigned an IP address, whether is currently uses it or not, to prevent later problems. Having machines floating around on a network with no IP addresses is bad mojo. -- Mark Benson Vintage Macs List Nanny aka silicon_valley_pirate_uk (Yahoo!

Re: my internet problem
The thread started by the list nanny began with this text: I'm looking for a 56k modem for my LCIII or IIci. I don't have the IIci yet but it eventually takes over as my server when I get it because 7.1 has less crap in it, which while being a bit limp as a desktop OS makes it ideal for a server. Personally I have a very hard time extracting from this text that we are talking about a router or a intranet webserver. BTW I've you need a modem, just visit a shop and by one.

I'd snoop around in there and try to determine what gets hot and what not. Taking out cards frees you from their heat and theoretically also form a bit of psu heat, but that will only be marginal.

I have found some inexpensive fans are quite noisy and some of the more expensive ones are almost silent; both having the same specifications. I've thought about doing it with my old MacIIx, which sounds like a helicopter readying for lift off. IMO leaving the case top off may cause problems, as the air is not forced to flow over certain components and convection is the only means of moving the air. The movement may not be enough to keep the parts at their thermal limits. The engineers who designed the case MAY have taken that into consideration. -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Ersatz icons
Hello. Like many others on this list, I do what I can to save old software from extinction. For this and other reasons I frequently make software archives on CD, and of course I want them to be well organised and aesthetically pleasing. There is, for instance, a set of standard icons that I use for folders containing specific categories of software. Since I had a period of frantic icon collecting in the mid-90's, I have quite a lot of old icons to choose from. They are, of course, in the traditional icl / ics / ICN format. The latest CD:s look very nice on the OS 8.6 system I use for mastering and burning them, but when browsed on a vintage system, be it using a local CD drive or over the network, then the CD:s are suddenly full of generic icons. I have now come to realise that when I cut and paste icons in Finder under OS 8.6, then it copies the classic icon resources but pastes them as a single new-fangled icns resource which isn't understood by vintage systems. This is probably just fine if the CD is intended for newer systems, but it is totally unacceptable when one is making CD:s, diskettes or whatever to use on vintage machines. Does anyone know a good way of preventing the modern Finder from converting icons during copy and paste? I'd really like a control panel that lets me tell the Finder how it should handle the icons. If not, do you have any suggestions for an application that elegantly (more elegantly than ResEdit) copies custom icons from one file, folder or volume to another _without_ converting them_? I can create new, empty folders with classic custom icons using the excellent program Icon Collector 1.1.1, but surely there must be other utilities? Or am I the only one who thinks that this is a problem? /Mikael -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

It's why the SCSI emulation under Linux works as well as the ease with which IDE devices can be used as SCSI devices on the various PC Mac emulators.

Re: Ripping Video
Yeah, but does it work without a card installed? ISTR the Daystar control panels don't work so well without an accelerator in place. Would be easy enough for someone to try. :) Drop it in the control panels folder then see if it will run. If it will, check the box to disable the RAM test. Bleah, is this only in the Turbo 601 CP? Something else to test. Use the Power Central CP for the 030 PowerCache and see if using just the PowerMath switch does anything for integer and floating point benchmarks. Supposedly that setting redirects all SANE math calls from the CPU to the FPU, using the Mac's onboard FPU if it has one and the PowerCache card doesn't. I've tried this before and ISTM that it does make a difference (though not as much as cache!) in Snooper benchmarks. -- - personal page: http://www.armory.com/~spectre/ -- Cameron Kaiser, Point Loma Nazarene University * [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- What you don't know won't help you much either. -- D.

Re: mac II fan-sidebar
since this came up, I'll jump right in with my question, which is related: last night I took my IIsi apart to some extent, in order to replace the PRAM battery. while i was in there, i took a good hard look around. yug. I don't know how long ago the last owner had this thing running, but were oily black dust bunnies clogging the floppy drive , both inside where the disc is suposed to sit, and on top of the casing. same story in the air vents. same story in the cooling fan grilles. so i set to work with my trusty antistatic wipes, grounded myself, drained off the static by clasping the power suppy for a minute, and then unsnapped the drive casing, wrapped a wipe around a flat butter knife blade, and gently slipped the wipe aroudn in the drive slot, bringing out junk until it was clean inside. then got the metal case off, then the plastic sleeve around it, and still grounded, wiped the gunk up off the works with a fresh towelette. reassembled the skin, the case, the ribbon cable, clicked it back down on the frame. couldn't slip anything thru the vents to clear out the junk caught in them, so i made a judgement call and decided that my standard technique for modifying plastics was in order: i heated up a long thin bread knife and cut down thru the air vents like a hot knife thru butter, widening them so i could see straight thru, and then pared away the bubbling with a sharp penknife to restore the plane of the lid. did the same on the side where the side vents are. I think I left enough integrity of the top to not break if i put a 12 monitor on top of it. now for the fan: it struck me that i have never heard this fan rev up when I turn this on.. I must need a new one. studied the mounting. it seems to look like the housing is a snap-in affair that plugs straight down onto the logic board for its power, when it reaches flush with the bottom. so I jiggled and leaned and squeezed and pressed--but couldn't get it to unsnap and come up and out. by the appearance, I think the black fan fin wheel must be held inside the housing by two 5 pointed screws on opposite corners. apparently you unsnap the housing, clear the anchor tabs, and lift out the whole thing, and then unscrew the wheel at those two screws and remove it to replace it with a new one. WHAT'S THE SECRET TO GETTING THAT HOUSING CAGE OUT OF ITS SPOT AT THE BACK OF THE IIsi? how is it supposed to work? and am I right about the removal steps and concept? what kind of a screwdriver takes out those 5 pointed screws? and when I go to the computer show on april 27th, what do i tell them I'm looking for? do i just take the whole little box to the show with me and show it to them? FWIW, I now know the inside of my IIsi, and now understand why the nubus cards have to be right angled in order to reach the expansion slot on the back. what is the white long strip that runs parallel to the nubus mount? (my inside case top says i have a revision B IIsi, assembled in Ireland, BTW) the breadboard says SIMM RAM printed beside it, but that ain't no 30 pin slot. it is as long as the nubus mount or longer. what is it for? i closed winkii twosie back up and turned her on, and everything's lovely. she has her little yellow duckies on a turquiose sea, i found that spiro gyra screen saver in after dark and set it, and whoever it was who told me to watch the difference after refreshing the PRAM batteries and turning on 32 bit addressing was so right... before, with a dead PRAM, her system software was taking up , like, 90% of her memory after bootup. now, the reverse is true: it takes up maybe 1700k of her space, and leaves me 90% of the space open for more stuff. huzzah! and the new battery ought to last me, what--5 years?? or more?? so I gotta understand about this fan, guys. school me. janet http://community.webtv.net/mensabrains/BADCODE -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
