What is being blurred-out on your wrist in the video? Interesting how 350°C works so well. I believe Bruce at one point told me he uses 430°C. I've been testing my cheap 858D at 430°C and it works well, but 350°C not so well. Maybe your expensive unit simply has more airflow. (I do use a...

Great question! We currently have 5 "Tinkerer" levels setup, which are advanced by number of posts. New Tinkerer is currently set for 0-9 posts. When you hit 10 posts, it should change to Tinkerer. The next level is a 50, then 100, then 250, but we should probably adjust those because they...

I recently acquired a Color Classic and was itching to do a video on it. I plan to do a series of videos based on my experiences with it, but the first video I just finished today centers on CRT adjustments. That's because, well, the display wasn't adjusted! As of the time of this...

While searching Amazon.com today I came across my 2015 book review of Becoming Steve Jobs. I thought it only appropriate to share the link in this thread. So many people praised that book, including Tim Cook and Eddie Cue, but I found it to be no different or worse when it came to taking...

@alex_santos I just want to say thank you for posting that video. I had watched it some years back. I just finished watching it again. The reading of The Crazy Ones by Jobs is so much better than that of Richard Dreyfuss because Jobs wasn't doing his best reading of the words -- Steve...

To be sure, there are people who didn't really understand Jobs, or who had negative encounters with him they personally could not forgive, and therefore they viewed him through a predominantly negative lens. We often do that to others. We know what limits we put on ourselves, then we add a...

I came across this Wall Street Journal article by Johnny Ive today. I appreciated the warm sentiments Ive shared. I have always thought of Steve Jobs as a man greatly misunderstood, perhaps inspired by the fact I myself am often misunderstood. I sometimes say or write in a deliberately...

Very interesting indeed! I'm quite curious as to what the removal of those 3 resistors is doing in the circuit. Do you have a schematic? The stock Color Classic motherboard is quite similar, but I'm guessing the same thing cannot be done on it. If it could be done, one wouldn't need to swap...

Amazing info, @Drake! No ill effects on serial port communication after those resistors are removed?

I like it, Bruce!

Packages from Kay are fun. The latest one he sent to me shown below. Thanks, @KayMMods!

@KayMMods !

Hi, Attila. You are asking for a CANCEL button to be added to "Post Thread." I can understand the desire to have that. However, I believe that is a part of XenForo and is something we cannot change. Looking at this XenForo discussion forum, it seems they didn't even have a Cancel button for...

Thank you for the feedback, Attila. So basically you want a white-background version of our Dark theme. The situation is that the Light theme is actually the default XenForo theme that we only slightly modified. We had to pay some money to buy the Dark theme. So basically money solves all...

Hi, Attila. Thanks for your feedback. I actually made the Blue colors darker before we invited Beta testers here. The default Blue was just too bright. I did not touch the default "White" color of the text, however. The reason is because the background is not 100% black. It's a dark gray...

Speaking of @KayMMods , he's pretty awesome. Look at what just arrived at my door! Beautifully packaged and with 2 complimentary gears (as clean as anything I've seen) too! Kayさん、誠にありがとうございました！

How loud is the fan, @eric ?

Welcome BETA TESTERS! This forum is all about YOU, not about the people who run the forum. Please offer us your detailed thoughts in the FEEDBACK section, and ENJOY the forum!

While BMOW no longer sells the original ROM-inator, thanks to @KayMMods in Tokyo who kindly sold me his spare kit, I was able to build this fun and useful mod. It's fully reversible and really adds something special to the earliest compact Macs too. Best of all, Steve C. and Kay came to an...
