    What did you cook today?

    I won't add much of myself, but I admit that I didn't cook it today. I'm not as good a cook as many of you. I'm quite slow and lazy. 🦥 I prefer to rub the tomatoes on a grater instead of a blender, so the color is preserved much better. You can also add a tomato juice to make the taste more...

    AsantéFast 10/100 NuBus network card

    I did some testing.

    Driver search for OrangeMicro Grapper+ SCSI + Serial

    Success! I managed to download it from the archive. Earlier I had problems with downloading files from here. I added it to the macintoshgarden so it wouldn't get lost.

    AsantéFast 10/100 NuBus network card

    That's why I want to do a test and see the numbers. Sometimes our own feelings are deceptive, there is a risk of placebo. Previously, I conducted tests with Quadra 950 when I connected BlueSCSI to the NuBus SCSI card, I got ~8.5 MB/s for reading and ~7 MB/s for writing, so on a 100 Mbps card you...

    AsantéFast 10/100 NuBus network card

    Hi, folks! Recently I was lucky to get a network card with a 10/100 Mbps AsantéFast applink. The card is new, as far as I can tell, the card, driver and additional software were sealed in packages and there is no trace that they tried to open it. I installed it in Quadra 950 to check how the...

    MARCHintosh 2026 Projects

    Did you manage to conduct experiments with NetBoot? I've been doing this for a while and tried my luck on all server versions, starting with OS X Server Rhapsody 1.0 on Beige G3 and ending with Mac OS X Server 10.5 on G5 DualCore. The NetBoot package for OS X Server Rhapsody 1.0 contains Mac OS...

    [Discussion] Use of AI/LLM in the retro community

    I don't see anything wrong with using any technology for good. Whether it's writing code or solving some questions. It helps me. A small example: Not so long ago I got Orange386 and couldn't find applications to interact with this board. The floppy disk with the application was read, but it was...

    OrangeMicro -- Orange386

    It worked! 16 MB of RAM and a math coprocessor 80387SX-25 are installed. Since I managed to disconnect the board, I took a few pictures. Maybe it will be useful to someone.

    OrangeMicro -- Orange386

    I received a 16 MB parity RAM kit, and it worked right away. Just as it turned out, in order to save the BIOS settings, you need to set the date to 2000. I have a Network Time control panel applet installed in Quadra, which can set the current date and time in System Software or Mac OS. The...

    OrangeMicro -- Orange386

    I found an interesting page here. There is also a brochure here. I'll probably leave it here as a picture, in case the resource disappears. It becomes clear that it supports up to 16 MB of RAM, and it seems that parity memory is needed. I tried to install 2 bars with which it boot and 2 with...

    OrangeMicro -- Orange386

    Hi folks, This week I received another DOS on Mac card -- Orange386. I decided not to mix it with another topic that I opened earlier, because this card and software seem completely different. For tests, I installed it in Q950. At first, I couldn't use it because I used the wrong software...

    Help choosing accelerator/booster for Beige G3 266

    Previously, I used a 266 Mhz processor in this machine, and it wasn't very fast. Then I managed to get 333 Mhz, I noticed a serious increase in performance, it was noticeable even without benchmarks. Only +67 Mhz. I think that the difference in performance between 400 and 500 Mhz may be more...

    Help choosing accelerator/booster for Beige G3 266

    I have such a car with a native G3 333 Mhz, previously used 266, and it's noticeably slower. 500MHz G3 ZIF -- great. You can also install a more productive G4 ZIF here, from Yikes, it works great, but you will have to install an extension, for example, from XLR8T, otherwise the OS will not know...

    Shopping for Power Macintosh 7300 ram

    I bought a few of these for PM9600. Crazy price, moreover, it seems to me that it used to be cheaper.

    DOS on Mac

    @NJRoadfan, Yes, you're right, there's a built-in voltage regulator here, so magic smoke didn't come out. I know that it is possible to install more efficient processors, such as Cyrix i586, but this will require an adapter. I haven't seen such adapters on the local ads site, so I decided on...
