    VCFMW 2026 Should Be Sweet!

    I believe mid-July is the usual window for table assignments to come out. On the CCMP Discord Jason said "a couple of weeks" a few days ago. Mid-July fits with my recollections of past years. I wouldn't worry.

    Outbound Laptop Capacitor List & Repair Log

    My distant memory of my Outbound is that the main battery is a fairly (once upon a time) common VHS camera battery. I did not have the A/C adapter for mine, but the internet told me that the adapter for a contemporary Roomba was an exact voltage/amperage/plug match. I did trim back a bit of...

    Iris Indigo - 12V rail problems

    Yes - it will probably come to that. I hope it obvious enough to figure out the issue once I isolate which board it is. It's hard enough to find parts these days; I would prefer to fix what I have.

    Iris Indigo - 12V rail problems

    I have one Indigo that works fine, and another that locks up after 10 minutes or so. If I take that one and have the front door open with a desk fan blowing on it, it runs OK. I need to try and figure out where the heat is an issue, on the graphics board or CPU board. Since I don't have a...

    Did anyone notice this detail on the rainbow X?

    There's a gap between the leaf and the apple in the real logo, so... I bought a MaClock from RayCue and it had a logo on the front (that I didn't want). Kokogol.com said theirs didn't have any logo on the front, and they were honest - same hardware, even the same instruction sheet, etc. Just no...

    Apple Network Server 700 boot issue

    TinkerDifferent.com Retro Proxy

    I just tried the telnet connection and it seems to work OK. I'm assuming no login is on purpose or not implemented yet, but it brings me back to my old Zmodem days!
