Yep, dana-b-d-bombe when it comes to Photoshop . . . is it real . . . or is it . . . https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/vhacks-everywhere.35450/post-382942

Just found the maniac's vHacks thread at the MLA again. WGS95 sans gratuitous iVesian MacPro handles.

Details will be forthcoming. First step after battery removal will be buzzing connections. ICs will definitely be desoldered and socketed for reading the contents of the logic ICs and their transfer to the BlackMagicalBus™ riser card along with the bus transceivers I think. Though those might be...

Not unless @-SE40- asks, that's tangential I think for now. It's in the procedd and being documented for a project I've collecting materials for and whittling away at since @nanoraptor first did the vHack.

Block Diagrams - Long term goal is learning enough about this stuff to implement the Rev.A discrete IC setup hooked up to the processor bus of the Macintosh_IIcx repro board that @max1zzz has up his sleeve. Burning its NuChip implementation to its bare foundations will be icing on...

Pretty Case, somebody really knows his stuff spotting that board in this pic and of my longstanding fascination with NuBus. One wonders why this board doesn't start up . . . . . . m thanks to a higher power that Rev.A predates Maxell and the battery cages incapable of...

This project has been several years in the works, but I've never had the Initial Release Macintosh II in hand. Thanks to a heads up from jeremywork over at the MLA, one is tracked to be arriving within the next 55 hours, but who's counting? This initial release of the DCaD series would be the...

KISS principle adherence is a lofty goal. However frog's design shows the LCD to be a discrete assy that may well have been intended to be hinged at the front, else ergonomic design principles would have been thrown "inside the box," which doesn't sound like a Hartmut kinda thing. ;) Printing...

Also included a short one connecting the two halves of the Adjustable KBD.

@-SE40- You could also hinge it at the front so it's kinda like a //c/Portable/PowerBook blend. There's also the hinge it on a half frame to flip it over either way in the middle trick. Might just work out if your controller had the right kind of cable or is thin enough to run just the VGA/HDMI...

If I might make a suggestion, flip the LCD over so it's a lid that hinges at the back edge. Hartmut never came up with that more ergonomically correct twist for this one that I've seen. ;) Portable rocks, my concept,decade long project is based on one of frog's designs. The maniac did up in...

Didn't see any source material from the CatMac/Hackintosh days in the thread. I was moving documentation around today and misplaced the three PCB pics I'd associated with this article: I'll try to find and edit the pics in later if you guys would like or not if you don't. IIRC TTL -> VGA is...

I'll post a fairly current hack that looks a bit like this and how I'm Prototyping it in wood and Plexi rather than CAD. Physical objects were used back in the day for the process. Maybe you'll take a whack at it that way? The first step would be blocking it out on blank paper using the...

I just love when that happens! Synergistic complications of being active on forums here there and elswhere rock. :p

PFFFFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Newfangled internal metering. ;) Very nice find, I love Olympus stuff. My first non-manual, no-interchangeable lens camera was Maitani's Masterpiece, the XA from that same year. Enjoy that beauty a bit and pass it on. Can't recall offhand if I had any other camera at all...
