    Watched forums as home page

    Just my $0.02 but I also find it a little overwhelming on the main list. I've begun hiding all of the sub-forums I'm not interested in and watching the "New Posts" view.

    Utility of alerts, threads and message counts in forum list?

    When I visit a new forum I often review these metrics to get a sense of what the forum is geared to. Aside from that, I don't think I often look.

    Macchimey?

    I've kept the dimensions comparable as best as I could with the limited reference material available. However, I am making a few optimizations which may allow this to be cut and shipped in typical "letter size" (8.5" x 11") envelope. The whole assembly will be held together by tape or glue...

    Macchimey?

    We need to establish the BTU baseline before we jump into pastries; for example is there more potential for warmed puddings?

    Macchimey?

    Thanks for sharing, Eric! I'll definitely use it as a resource. Truthfully, I suspect it does not need to be very exacting but I'll respect the original design nonetheless.

    Macchimey?

    It would be so cool if Tom could share the original designs! That being said, I imagine a template could be pretty easily whipped up in Solidworks using their sheet metal tools — solely to make a foldable template, not for sheetmetal production. Maybe I'll take a stab at soon. Should I print...

    Apple eMate 300 Expansion Module (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    I wasn't as successful as I had hoped with this! I had always hoped to release a fully open source version which people could assemble themselves or buy from approved vendors but I think I'm taking a break from this one. Here's the open source project (GitHub Repo)! I'm stumped on the best...

    Tweaked ROM-inator PCB (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    Always a pleasure when it "just works" the first time * *v1 required 1mm shaving in order to pass by the logic board cable!

    Johny I've reflections on Steve Jobs (Oct. 2021)

    Before Steve's death, I think it was easy to see him on stage and associate his name with impressive inventions and a "rising from the ashes" success story. After meeting and talking to a few people who have worked with Steve on a regular (sometimes daily) basis, I am more inclined to take their...

    Tweaked ROM-inator PCB (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    This is an iterative update to the ROM-inator PCB — nothing too fancy, just rounded out a few details to make it easier to assemble and install. You can find the Gerber open hardware link on my GitHub Repo. This project was inspired after watching JDW's Youtube video on the ROM-inator.

    Apple eMate 300 Expansion Module (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    Yup, the board uses an Intel E28F016SV flash and two KM416V100BT-L6 (or IS41LV16105D-50TLI) DRAM chips.

    Apple eMate 300 Expansion Module (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    This is an ongoing effort to reverse engineer the DT320 eMate 300 Expansion module. The reference module was generously loaned by colin (@This Does Not Compute) of This Does Not Compute. Schematics, gerbers, datasheets, and more are currently closed in a private repo and will be released once...

    Apple 512k VRAM (Open Source / Open Hardware Project)

    I've been working on an open source version of Apple's 820-0605-A VRAM modules. The project is available on GitHub, including the Gerbers, Schematics, datasheets, and more but I will provide more details below. The goal of the project is to make VRAM available to anyone who would like to make...
