    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    First step, go back to the source. First of series: DCaDftMIIaMSE We've got C16M (AKA CPUCLK?) and /CLK running in and out of this mess everywhere . . . Now to compare this to the Bomarc NuChip schematic and maybe get this sucker up and running so I can measure the rate of /CLK? WAG is...

    Macintosh Classic Reloaded, almost done.

    Methinks @Bolle is already well on his way down the IIsi road. Just before I started bugging you about morphing your LCIII into the Compact form factor I was posting about reformatting IIsi for the SE/30, driving its CRT from Vampire Video at 12" RGB res. ISTR he PM'd me saying something like...

    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    Back to basics: the source of this stream of craziness would be the longstanding NuBus in SE/30 project. So I'm dialing the Rev.A reverse engineering back to the source of its 16MHz CPUCLK to 10MHz NuBus clock implementation for the moment. If that's simple enough, such might be implemented on...

    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    Not by a much. :unsure: Dana's PowerPortable is a modernistic interpretation of another classic frog design study, such could be the basis for this kind of build, but that's tangential. If headed that way the LCD would be larger and symmetrical, but I like the asymmetry of the target design...

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    They do not require an accelerator, they support a IIci Cache Slot interfaced accelerator. They are perfectly usable sans Accelerator which requires no interrupt. If building a riser for the SE/30, provide PowerCache support, but leave connector and PAL unpopulated and you have a three PDS...

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    I understand your obsession with this. Many years ago I started the ProtoCache1 threads, not trying to build a new tech adapter, but to complete a project abandoned by the Gamba team. This was the traditional approach to SE/30 expansion, PowerCache Adapter development to go with the crazy stack...

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

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    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...

    Transfer files from PowerBook G3 Pismo to PowerBook 190cs

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

    Transfer files from PowerBook G3 Pismo to PowerBook 190cs

    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...

    How do I turn off email notifications . . .

    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...

    How do I turn off email notifications . . .

    . . . 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.

    problem with MicroMac accelerator in SE

    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...

    How were the PowerBook 1xx bags?

    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...

    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    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...
