Get that 580 up and ready for internet trawling. Find and install Open Transport 1.1 with the TCP and PPP settings and Open Transport 1.0 with the Modem and ppp/ot extension stuff. Probably from the below-mentioned Apple Older Software Site. If the 580 doesn't have an internal modem, buy an external one. You can start with www.jagshouse.com. Go here, too: w3.trib.com/~dwood/oldmac.html These two will open up a vast treasure trove of things to learn the Mac. The Apple Older Software Site has huge hoards of stuff for old Macs. Especially tutorials like Macintosh Basics. http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html Jeff -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
