LC using a cable modem and etc..

I have a stock LC which I would like to use to get online using a cable modem. I'm willing to upgrade it via Presto Plus (http://www.sonnettech.com/product/presto_plus.html) with an ethernet port . I would like to use System 7.5 so what extensions/drivers/add-ons do I need? As of now I'm using S

OK...I'm hearing two different opinions here. Some say yes some say no. OK that's cool but anyone have any technical specs to guide/help me along? Neal ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com

Re: LC using a cable modem and etc..

Okay guys, but you do not consider the satisfaction to have such a thing. I personally have a Mac Classic with a TechWorks 68030 at 40 MHz with FPU and 16 MB RAM. At the time, 1995, I spent more than 300 USD for the accelerator, the additional RAM and the CompactVirtual software. This is faith,

Re: LC using a cable modem and etc..

Exactly. I'm doing this just to do it. I'm willing to spend the money. All I want is a definitive answer. If it can be done what do I need? Neal ~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com | Ent

Yep. My G4 PowerBook runs OS X browsers just fine, but there's a special delight in turning the System 6 LC loose on the modern network. At 12:34 PM +0100 12/27/04, Beniamino Cenci Goga wrote: Okay guys, but you do not consider the satisfaction to have such a thing. I personally have a Mac Clas

Re: LC using a cable modem and etc..

I was cruising through Ebay for a blue and white G3 (aren't they pretty?!) and I'm thinking of buying one with a cinema display. I'm amazed in how easy it is to upgrade. But I will get this LC going just for something to do. Yeah..it will be slow surfing but I'll just disable images and use it for

Re: LC using a cable modem and etc..

Oooo! You _have_ to pop that apart and take pictures! Upgrades like that for the Classic are rare beasts. You bet!! I managed to find the very first pictures that I took with the QuickTake 200. I should have somewhere the original web page that I made at that time with the very first version

Popped over to your web site, been a long time since I've seen a Mac with an Italian OS! Salve Dave Beniamino Cenci Goga wrote: > >Oooo! You _have_ to pop that apart and take > >pictures! Upgrades like that for the Classic are > >rare beasts. > > You bet!! > > I managed to find the very fir

Re: LC using a cable modem and etc..

That is just the coolest thing ever! Seeing a Classic with that kind of power...it's like giving a Karmann Ghia a Ferrari engine! Thanks. I found the old web page an started translating it. Right now it is 50% in US English (well, sort of, let's say Italian-English...) and 50% is in Italian. Tha
