Apple IIg

2004-06-11 Thread R. A. Cantrell
Vintage Maccers,
I thought I heard some talk about an Apple IIg
on the list the other day, but as I did not have one at the time, I did not
pay much attention. I picked one up in a liquidation yesterday and am
wondering if it is worth sprucing up? It seems to have a long ribbon cable
of some sort hanging out of it and I think that the external Floppy drive
that was in the same batch goes with it. (do they hook up via a parallel
looking port?) What are the monitor requirements?

Re: Apple IIg

2004-06-11 Thread R. A. Cantrell
I appreciate the info from you guys. I'm just trying to get it ready to sell
and want to accurately represent it. I don't have a monitor for it, so I'll
just open it up and take an inventory and list it as is as the picture on
a Mac monitor is too distorted to make much of, but it does light the
monitor up and attempt to send an image, but the image is all wonky. If
anyone has an interest in it, E-me off list.
 Steve [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 
 When your GS boots up, does it say ROM03 or ROM1?
 
 As R.A. asked about monitors, I'm guessing he doesn't have one, and so
 can't see what the computer displays when turned on. I think there's a
 place on the motherboard that would say, though.
 
 Pop the top and see what is in the slots, reading from left (slot0) to
 right (slot7) and say what is in there,
 
 The IIgs has slots 1-7 plus a memory slot to the right of slot 7
 (looking from the front). You might be thinking of a IIe.
 
 The IIGS has a composite monitor port in the back (decent color,
 fair/poor text), and a IIGS-specific RGB port (excellent color,
 excellent text). The IIGS RGB might be a hard find.
 
 Finding a working IIgs monitor is getting difficult. And because the
 IIgs's sync rate is below what nearly any Mac or VGA monitor can go down
 to, there aren't many other options. Steve mentioned a Second Sight,
 which is the only solution for hooking up a VGA monitor, but these are
 very rare and will likely be costly, if the person knows what he has. (I
 just sold mine and I'm embarrased to say what the bidding went up to.)
 
 Hard drive (external SCSI or internal HardCard)
 (partition into 32mb GS/OS and make the rest HFS)
 
 I would make a few GS partitions, as the HFS driver had the occasional
 problem with large partitions, so I never trust anything important to
 it. Plus, older (ProDOS 8) software can't see the HFS volume).
 
 RAMFast SCSI card (if you get an external SCSI drive)
 
 Or Apple High-Speed SCSI card (might be more common and less expensive,
 and I found them less fussy to use, though the real hackers like the
 RAMFast).
 
 4mb of RAM
 
 Can go to 8MB.
 
 TransWarpGS accellerator
 
 Or ZipGS, but these too fetch a lot of money.
 
 PC-Transporter (if you want to get fancy, it a PC/XT on a card)
 
 Now why ruin a perfectly good computer like that! :-)
 
 My synopsis: I'm a big fan of the IIgs, and I still use mine (a Woz,
 from very early on), but the computers and add-ons are becoming
 strangely popular now, and are fetching sometimes ridiculously high
 prices. Going by recent eBay sales and what I sold some of my parts for,
 my system would easily have fetched $1000. And yet I had a Centris 610
 here that was faster, with more memory, bigger hard drive, and better
 video, and I couldn't give it away! Go figure! I guess there's just
 something special about the classics.

Re: 30 pin simms

Thanks everybody, my story is that they are 4 meggers, and I'm  sticking to
it.

 I've just about Chipmunk'd myself blind and cannot get a definitive
 answer
 on some 30 pin simms. They all have 8 OKI  514100A-70SJ chips
 (20625069A9Z)
 I just need to determine the size (meggage) of each  stick. Anyone got
 some
 of these or  any insight?
 
 Just throwing a bit of info into the list that's useful to me when I
 have to ID simms - You can google using part of the number and it
 usually turns up quite a few relevant link, to identify how much
 storage is on each chip. 514100A is what I googled for, and the third
 link I get is a pdf that shows info about each individual chip as:
 
 This family is a 4M bit dynamic RAM organized 4,194,304 x 1-bit
 configuration with Fast Page mode CMOS DRAMs.
 
 So to simplify, each individual chip is 4 Million of 1 bit. Since R.A
 needs 4 Million of one byte, or 4 Million of 8 bits (both the same
 thing) to make 4 Megabytes, then 8 lots of those chips is 4Megabytes,
 which is what they are :)
 
 When googling it helps to try a few different combinations of the first
 number segment, leaving out the speed (70SJ).
 
 There are quite a few different combinations of chip types, such as
 4Mx2, or 16Mx4 and so on. You may for example have a simm with 4Mx2 bit
 and only 4 chips - which would end up the same size, 4MB - or 16Mx4
 chips, and 2 of those, which would be a 16MB simm.

 Many or most of them do. I want a special pricing section for computers
 older than, say, 1997(?) vintage so as to dramatically reduce the shipping.
My limited experience with eBay tells me that some  sellers use a strategy
of selling cheap, roping you in, and making up some juice on shipping. $30

Re: connecting to HP LJ 3

 I have a couple of the  serial to  parallel cables,
 E-me off list.
 
 Got the software to go with them? 4.5.2 was the last
 to support 68K, but the latest version you can use
 also depends on the cable. I bought 3.0.0 on eBay
 and got a free upgrade to 4.5 because that's the
 newest version supported by the cable that came with
 3.0.0.
The box says it is to hook a Power Book to an HP printer, but it has the
round serial and the  parallel connectors, I  think. They are HP gear, and
I'llhave to  look to see if there  is any  software.

IIfx Ram

Oldsters,
Did the 64 pin ram for IIfx's come in various sizes? And how
can that be distinguished out of the machine?

 Sounds like the NuBus adapter for a IIsi.  This machine could take
 either IIsi/SE30 PDS cards or through this adapter, a single NuBus
 card.

 I was not sure of the parameters of this list, especially because of
 Apple's ever-widening definition of vintage. Again, I really

You'll get more help for the 7100 on the 1st PowerMacs list.
