LOL! Target design + trackbal + palm rests = footprint of Macintosh Portable! :ROFLMAO:

Artmix PowerCache adapter card has been around for quite a few years. More recently, @Bolle has cloned the DiiMO adapter card, which is likely what Atrmix had done. Bolle did one better, he has the full size card with a single passthru at top, equivalent to Artmix, but has also designed a...

Lombard's not much better, but retains support for SCSI Disk Mode transfers. The G3 bridge machine to have would be a Wallstreet.

Pismo transfers with SCSI PowerBooks are a no go on several fronts, I/O ports are totally out of sync along that line of development. But you're talking 190cs, which is blessed with a PCMCIA slot! ;) Get a Compact Flash Card""""" and PCMCIA card adapter for it. DO NOT fall for buying CardBus...

Thanks, did that yesterday, the alerts are only shown under the icon for in house use, no? Don't mind those, but if they fling junk at my email box I'll turn them all off. Could be that the emails I deleted today came in between trashing the first batch and the time I got around to whacking...

. . . wasn't getting them and now my mailbox is being carpet bombed. :eek: Wasn't clear to me when I tried to tweak preferences yesterday, that's the first time I've looked to change anything, so I know I didn't initiate the bombing campaign.

Have you got a floorplan of your kitchen handy? Curious about your work triangle, window and door placement.

Working from blurred, caffeine deprived memory this AM: DiiMO 030 is installed in the IIci Cache Slot. In the remainder of the the Macintosh II family it would work in an adapter and might in the SE/30 as well. ISTR saving a pic of its low rise SE/30 adapter, though it might be from another...

Very nice, good to hear you know Murphy and his tricks. I've had a great working relationship with Murphy myself, when he screwed up the projects of others, it was my business to bail them out. This put me in good stead to turn his mischief around to my advantage whenever he messes with my...

My Duo System bag/briefcase was a Tenba camera bag, still have it, can't beat it. But prices have kept up with inflation, they don't appear to have cheapened their products, I guess that goes with a lifetime warranty? The bag I use for my traveling NetBook these days was a Goodwill find with a...

Absolutely fabulous! Will you be using a contrasting colored plastic cutting board on that beautiful butcher block countertop? One bit of advice from a former plumbing department team leader: be on the lookout for an inexpensive single hole faucet set at Habitat outlets etc. All sprayer hoses...

From Duo System DevNote Connections deleted for brevity: Address, Data, Power, GND, Docking Control lines, passthru connections for ADB, FDD, Serial, Modem, Sound, sleep etc. Duo System Main Expansion Connector Table 4-1 Main expansion connector signal assignments Pin ___ Signal name ___...

The Radius IIsi NuBus Adapter and DuoDock II NuBus implementations would be what makes me think that a goodly portion of the Rev.A HALs might be excised from its NuBus chipset: If NuBus MUX can be identified and eliminated from the Rev.A NuBus schematic, then the NuBus controller might be...

Thanks, good to see the transceivers are available, once the Rev.A schematic is developed and compared to the IIcx schematic, four (possibly eight?) of the HAL ICs might be eliminated in order to implement the remainder on a test board?

Thanks, great resource. History of NuBus seems particularly relevant here as it was standardized in 1987, well after development of the Macintosh II, released March 2 that year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NuBus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_II...

I think my notes are long gone, but ISTR deciding that the NuBus ChipSet in the DuoDock was a pure, Apple-unadulterated but rebadged TI product. Which edition of DCaDftMF are you referencing?

Anything I'll build will be a new PCB daughtercard for an abbreviated version max's Macintosh IIcx board. Hope to test several configurations in a DIMM slot placed between Slots and the main logic board. Throwing in a PDS slot and maybe a IIci Cache Slot adaptation for my PowerCache for bonus...

OK, it's here if anyone wants to take a peek: https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/texas-instruments-nubus-interface-products-data-book-1991.43/

Sorry, lost track of that tidbit with all the projects coming together of late. Glad to see you've come over to the dark side. :p
