I picked up the one that uses a DE-10 and it took over a year to get it because of the pandemic. I set it up for a few 8bit and 16 bit consoles. (NES / sega) and havn't used it much after that. Have you tried it with the Mac PLUS core yet?

i think you answered it with 6 being the best. If you have at least 4MB of ram on the portable. system 7 should be .. usable. How much memory do you have? (i think technically system 7 should be happy with 2.5)

wasn't the soundbox also the powersupply or something? basically you couldn't operate the computer without one? (i might me thinking of something else. I know the 20th anniversary mac is like that) the NeXT computer (any one) and a G4 cube is on my would like to have one day list....

i'm posting replies everytime i find or think of something new. I think MS-DOS 4.0 is one of those weird versions where its confusing about WHICH one you are talking about. wikipedia has some info on this version. (4.0) I mostly remember MS-DOS 5 and 6. .. i think i found an old computer...

Ars article talks more about mutli-tasking dos. (which never happened)

Its mentioned in the readme that they released the sourcecode originally to the computer history museum back in 2014. But now its on github so its easier for the rest of us to look at it. which is supper cool. Also Macpaint and quick draw was giving to the CHM...

this is taking me back. about a decade ago i used to be helpdesk support for a small office. and this is exactly the laptop and model i would support. The docks could be a bit funky. i don't think they like being hotswaped.

could you use something like this https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/advtool-cross-compilers ? to cross compile from x86 to Power9 ?

There were a bunch of converter mac to vga box's. most with little dip switches so you can configure it correctly. They dont' always work with all monitors. https://www.bigmessowires.com/mac-sync-inator/ is a new one.... which should be available to be sold soon. (its currently sold out) He...

I almost paid for a 400k floppy disk till i realized it was "reproduction" shoot i know not everybody can. but *I* can make copies of floppy images i downloaded from the garden also.

speaking of things thats surprising that people havn't seen it. there is a couple youtube channels first time watching star trek. .... like TOS and TNG. i find that wild. But i guess if you are younger you may not be that exposed to star trek. ... (or alien(s) i guess)

I liked this video an astronomer reacts to Alien(s)

I think thats a new feature. .. and wasn't around when this thread started. so yes? i think so? i didn't try it.

there is a real way. but it is a bit of a hack. and would require some work to get it working. context: The problem with SCSI2SD is that it doesn't really do disk images. its just raw data right onto the SD card. which you configure start and end bytes for your scsi devices via a java app. (so...
