    Too many categories

    Hi jcs! Thank you for your feedback :) The layout for this so far isn't 100% fixed and can be tweaked. The rationale for the category setup as it stands, is that we wanted to break things down in a 'by system' so if you wanted to network your mac plus, it'd go in the compact mac category...

    Downvoting posts

    It looks like Xenforo theoretically supports this - but downvote buttons can be abused. I think once we're better established, mods should look at the cases individually and suggest to the OP of the thread/post that they might want to change what they posted - users have the ability to edit all...

    Material Lost to Time

    Personally, i think if it can be recovered, it should definitely be reposted to make it easier to find/search - part of our MO here is to make things available for everyone, and not just 'shut down' and lose all content.

    5v FPM DIMM's!

    https://www.utsource.net/itm/p/11213515.html 84cents each, but you'd need a buffer and a voltage regulator to step down from 5v to 3.3v Perhaps the 74LVT162244 as the buffer? Each chip is 8MB (64Mbit) in size, 8 chips needed for the full 64-bit data bus, which would also give you 64MB...

    5v FPM DIMM's!

    For DIMM's, would it not be best to use something like these: https://www.utsource.net/itm/p/11652925.html 1K refresh, 50ns 1Mx16 DRAM chips for $1.51 in 100 or more... And new, too. I've always had good luck with the DRAM chips from utsource. Always arrived in oem packaging, too.

    5v FPM DIMM's!

    Well, I was thinking of using regular dram chips that are available in quantity, not necessarily sdram or sram.

    $30 Box of Random Electronics

    Ooooh handspring! I remember, my first paycheque from Blockbuster went on one of those and a 20 inch pizza. I carried it around for about 6 months, but then i realised i never really did anything with it, other than constantly put it on charge :D

    Flashing an Adaptec AHA-2940UW to Mac

    This is luckily, the AIC-7880P. I do actually have some 29F010 EEPROM's, which i presume should also work in place of those earlier ones mentioned, but i bought a dozen of the Atmel ones, just in case. I found the firmware updater - it's STILL on the adaptec site! If i have time, i'll solder...

    Flashing an Adaptec AHA-2940UW to Mac

    So, i seem to recall when i was working in the DTP/Pre-press industry about 20 years ago, UW SCSI was the absolute best thing since sliced bread. All those high density 68-pin cables and nice trapezoidal chunky connectors....aaah, those were the days. Anyway - I have before me, an Adaptec...

    CRT monitor forum?

    The apple, commodore and atari sections all feature their own area for monitors - were you meaning a general 'catch all'?
