    Best monitor for vintage Macintosh

    So if you don't use the adapter and directly connect your monitor and VGA cable to the VGA output on the KVM, you get nothing? One guess is that each computer is trying to detect the attached monitor and it is not getting the correct signals. I wonder what it would look like if each computer...

    Best monitor for vintage Macintosh

    Looks to me like a shielding issue. Poorly shielded cables or something internal to the KVM box is letting signals hop/bleed. When you hook the monitor directly to the computer, do you see the same ghosting?

    How to Free Up Space on Mac?

    1. Do you have multiple applications open? Close some and then see if it will save. 2. Do you collect unimportant stuff? Delete some of it and empty the trash. 3. Clear browser cache. 4. Do you have any removable media (hard drive, USB stick) or cloud storage options? Offload some documents...

    Just double layer it with offset halfway (bad Photoshop example).

    I wonder if the mentioned dental scaler would work for removing this metallic covering?

    Cracked Hinge on Mac Portable

    Oh, wow! Yes, that is significant. Ease of disassembly, but difficult to replace/repair that complicated of a piece as a whole. :mad:

    Desktop G3 Zip/Jaz bezel

    Here is version 2 based on those measurements. Someone will have to print and test to see if adjustment is needed. Because you can see the entire face of the drive, I didn't think the JAZ logo needed to be recessed into the front.

    Cracked Hinge on Mac Portable

    This makes me wonder if the ribs are actually structurally significant, or if the design was to just reduce plastic quatity and weight. If not structurally relevant, then a possibly solid filled model/mold/print could be created as a replacement that may be stronger than the original. Or if...

    Desktop G3 Zip/Jaz bezel

    Ok, so this bezel lets the whole face of the drive be seen, vs the 9100/9500 type bezel that only lets the media slot be shown (original faceplate probably removed?). So please provide 3 more measurements: width and height of the hole, as well as the depth (both sides, as the bezel is curved).

    Cracked Hinge on Mac Portable

    Regardless of the method you use to repair this hinge, you may want to completely disassemble so it so you have that sole piece isolated when you do the repair. It may also be helpful to try to make a mold of it in case you want to recast the part. How? There are plenty of methods that would...

    Cracked Hinge on Mac Portable

    I have done some research when thinking about creating my own acrylic case for a mini-cube... and that led me to Weld-on 4. I haven't opened it and tried it yet, but now that I look at the label, it has maybe some good things to work on poly-carbonate and not just clear acrylic. Weld-on 4 vs...
