Hence, my near obsession level interest in Blackbirds all of a sudden. I've a box of internal parts from here and there with no real desire to get them up and running. I'd then need to source what I consider its unfortunate, thankfully very short lived, industrial design departure from the...

You're most welcome, not sure how many folks know of and truly appreciate that documentation these days. Pre-Kanga 3400 limitation doesn't bother me at all. It's kinda nice to have it cut off pre-G3, before Jobs got Apple back on the, regrettably slot expansion limited, profitability track...

PCMCIA is a whole different kettle of fish I think. Such requires the likes of the T-REX ASIC on the bottom of the 1400 Card Cage Daughtercard. How much overhead is entailed by going through the full implementation? Going directly from 030 PDS to CF @joethezombie appears to be getting close to...

Looks like it boils down to card connector availability. Anybody know the spec or source offhand? Crazy notion popped in the noggin' for the fabulous Compact Flash card for 030 PDS @zigzagjoe has in development over yonder. Figured someone here might have the answers. Tech chops here far...

Yep, the entire document is line art and text. Here's a quick workup in AI. Could do something like four machines per page? edit: I'd imagine this kinda thing might be nice for someone oriented toward web page development as well? I'm more the three ring format, wood pulp based storage media...

Not into current notions of AI endeavors, AI will always mean Adobe Illustrator/OS9 to me. ;) Ports & Pinouts will make a great source of backplane info under enlarged Macintosh model pics. Can't find the document right now, but pretty sure it's all line art and text?

Now THAT is a great idea! I can build it incrementally in AI and save it as .PDF for quick reference on any machine as I go, online or not.

One of the magicians over at the MLA described the 86C05 as a NuBus Controller, but that didn't sound right to me. NuBus Controller is on the Mac's Logic Board or on the 030 PDS->NuBus Adapter in the cases of the IIsi and DuoDock. 86C05 is a multiple platform, programmable Bus Controller, but...

(y)(y) ;)

Whatever it takes will suffice! I think such will be fine with those who want a Rocket on board. You won't see it very often and anything that any reduction of power consumption and heat generated will be welcome. ;) Since the PDS connectors are readily available, it would be amazing to build...

A pair of 72pin SIMMs should be easy enough to implement with connectors available, no?

Remembered my early SCSI II card whilst slumbering in bed and tossed the notion of cloning it out to the gang at the MLA before I woke up enough to think better of it. So here goes: Wondering if anyone here has any notions about what might transpire on what appears to be a fairly simple...

HRMMM, 1995-1997 components on a DOS Emulator for Mac may or may not be compatible with Win98? Maybe try Win3 for Workgroups or . . . heaven forbid . . . THE ARCHETYPAL BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH RELEASE!!! :eek:

Wonderful! Might I suggest making a pair of holes in the sides where the case overlaps the vent louvers of 7100/8100? When assembling the case you should be able to drop a longish U-shaped wire through them. Bend one wire into a J-shape to fish down thru and then back up in order to twist tie...

WOWSAS! 😲 Looks like 1995-1997 S3 Graphics Goodness on board. S3Trio64V+ 1995 ViRGE/GX 1997

This is the kind of interface card that ought to be soldered down to headers replacing the desoldered PCIe Slot. Need to modify that interface in order to clear overhead limits in PowerBook Duo and PowerBook 100 cases. No time to attack the slopes of the KiCAD learning curve, so I'll likely...

If you've got an ugly one with intact locking tabs and feets I'm only about a 2.5 hour drive from you. It'd be fun to meet up, I've got oodles of trade goods and a little bit of the filthy lucre available. ;)

Thanks for that explanation, I never understood the DOS Compatible issue you'd been mentioning. That shroud's amazing, when I first suggested the shroud I was thinking of printing sides of the case and shroud in one piece. making base unit of the case flat on the inside of your case simplifies...
