Got it and I'm sure folks figure it out just fine once in there. Not an interface expert by any means but maybe labeling the button as "Set as Next CD" would add context? I guess that's kinda wordy for a button though. I can't wait to find time to play with all these wonderful new features that...

I'm likely missing something obvious but how do you control which CD image is "next"? Is it highlighting one of the images in the CD Changer app interface list? Reordering it?

Glad others also appreciate the so called “road apples” for their uniqueness! Long love the IIvx! Lol The “Bad Batch”/“Suicide Squad” members: Macintosh XL Macintosh IIvx PowerBook 150 Performa 6200 …who else would we want on the team!

Someone may prove me wrong but I think Apple didn’t change anything about their logic boards‘ battery backup voltage requirements when they switched from using 3.6v Lithium batteries to 4.5v Alkaline batteries. I believe the later just has a quicker voltage drop off, both having a voltage...

Available through eBay? Link?

I really like the “Like” emoticon responses but agree it would be nice to have a latest activity view without them from a practical perspective of a real content activity update summary view.

Not sure I’m totally following your test cases, but could this be a Rev A Beige Power Mac G3 issue? https://lowendmac.com/roadapples/g3-reva.html Rev A only supports a single device (I believe set as master) on each bus.

I made a resource article on the topic of identifying Power Macintosh L2 cache modules! https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/ppc-macintosh-l2-cache-modules.19/ I only have one entry for Tsunami architecture compatible 1MB L2 cache modules although there are most definitely more out there (not...

I think they’re talking about the Power Macintosh G3 Blue & White, which had USB but retained ADB as well. Last Mac with ADB I think?

Yes, I've rebuilt both my eMate's battery packs with new cells, however I kept/reused the temperature sensor from the original battery pack. I'm not sure I've seen reports of anyone building new packs with new sensors. If they were new sensors it seems they need to be calibrated with with data...

This can't be the temperature sensor in the battery pack though, correct? I mean wouldn't there have to be some documented procedure on doing some sort of recalibration when you got a new battery pack? Oh, scratch that. Should have looked at the manual first, page 244: Replacing the...

Did you try both Soft and Hard resets after removing the module? https://tim.id.au/laptops/apple/misc/emate.pdf It seem like a Hard reset might be needed to get the Flash upgrade changes undone. I might try this later but stopping while ahead tonight!

I got some time this evening to do some testing with your DRAM-plus-flash module, spoiler, it works! 😃 I made sure to do a Newton device Backup using the Newton Connection Utilities app I have installed on one of my PowerBooks Next I removed the bottom panel and disconnected my rebuilt battery...

I’ve been wondering about that too. From the Apple Hardware Dev notes both the 180 and 540 use the same “Combo” SCSI chip but my reading is the 180 runs it at the same speed as the processor, 33MHz, where the 500 series has a split bus system running at different speeds mediated by the “Pratt”...

I think it's very interesting, put the battery bay to use! I do wonder if it wouldn't be easier to use an existing Powerbook BlueSCSI (thanks @Androda) and a micro SD extension like this: https://www.amazon.com/SING-LTD-Extension-Flexible-Extender/dp/B07KVT2P3F

So dark magic then… 😜

Sure, I’ve got the wrist rests for my Apple Adjustable Keyboard (which I bought and used in the late 90s in college, …I recall thinking it was soooo cool) and can lend them to you no problem. I don’t regularly use mine much these days since it takes up so much desk space but it definitely is a...

This is what I use in my 575. https://www.ebay.com/itm/271623868154 …it’s a bit fiddly to get everything plugged in, I used some tongs to get the edge connector + extension cable plugged in, but works!

Yes, looks right as far as I can tell: I actually don’t have the other parts yet, I didn’t have the values for the resistors needed. I think they are in this thread, just need to get a Mouser order together. …I do have two Color Classics, I might try to steal/barrow the components to test...
