I just purchased an unused (and very reasonably priced!) Brainstorm Accelerator for a Macintosh Plus. However, it's just the accelerator and its various ancillary bits, new and uninstalled. I know there are pictures outlining how it's all supposed to go, but does anyone happen to have the...

That's true! I forgot about that part, that would definitely be handy. :)

We can put an alias of it in the Startup Items folder, and it should be functionally the same. Plus, the modern dock is its own application as well.

@ESM-NL - I went ahead and added all the versions of the driver that I had to the page as separate downloads. I also edited the description for clarity. Also also, I added a version history document that I compiled not too long ago.

Kennect combined the extension and the cdev at some point, so it's just the control panel after that.

I added a bunch of info to the Rapport page on the Garden which I expect you've seen. I also recommend using the 1.7 driver, which is buried in the download on that page (in the part with 1.1). (Gonna split the different versions out at some point.)

I posted this a few days ago on 68kMLA but unfortunately no response. Does anyone happen to have a copy of the manual that came with any of the iPod 4th gen/Photo/Color Display docks? The ones with the 7-pin S-Video ports. There were various versions (M9766G/A 2004, M9868G/A 2005, possibly...

What is the P2 connector for? Interesting that the main PDS connector is just the pins!

Well this is embarrassing. After quite awhile and some deep disappointment, I decided to just try pulling everything out again just for the heck of it. I was reading the manual again, and decided to just try it one more time. I connected up the Rapport dongle on its own (it should function...

Awesome!

This all reminds of SCSI Accelerator for the Plus which comes with multiple versions of the extension, which adds different numbers of pause commands and such, based on the capabilities of the hard drive that was being used: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/scsi-accelerator

Perhaps Opt-Shift-Click? Having two modifiers would also ensure that it's a deliberate action and isn't invoked accidentally by the user. You could also add a preference for customizing which modifier(s) is/are used, but obviously that's extra work for you on the back-end.

I just realized from your notes on the latest Alpha release from the 11th that in order to keep an item in the dock you have to Ctrl-Click its icon when it's open. Unfortunately, pre-ADB Macintosh keyboards don't have a Ctrl key!

Wonderful job!

Congratulations on a monumental milestone! HFS+ is a big step. I still hold out hope for DC6 NDIF image compatibility, but I know it's a tougher problem than most, given that most such files are compressed.
