    Mu0n's Color Classic thread

    I've read that thread already @This Does Not Compute and seen your video , neat stuff and so satisfyingly lucky. So the way it now has gone: -Buyee received the package locally -I ordered a repackaging -I waited 4 days; they just noticed me an hour ago that it was done -The option of...

    Mu0n's Color Classic thread

    I don't doubt that at all! However, the local person who sent it to buyee's warehouse might not have done a good job and it could already be destroyed in some unfortunate way. Regardless of how the machine is now a finely grounded powder or a pristine machine, I'll never know until it arrives...

    Mu0n's Color Classic thread

    It arrived at the buyee warehouse earlier in the week and I promptly ordered an additional protective packaging. It's been sitting in that state for about 3 days now. I'm kinda regretting not requesting a photo of its status before ordering the repackaging.... rookie mistake I guess?

    Reworking my computer area (daily driver + retro)

    Last shot being an "honest" point of view. My main goal was to bring the unruly mess of noodles in check and allow super easy vacuuming. A bonus objective was to keep it malleable and not require 3 thousand unwanted steps if something has to be moved or swapped. Every power strip and cable...

    Reworking my computer area (daily driver + retro)

    I mostly finished installing my shelves near the top. I'll wait for better lighting conditions to post underneath, tonight or tomorrow.

    Reworking my computer area (daily driver + retro)

    To reiterate - I've solved my cable management already to a satisfying degree ( to me). I'm delaying the after shots because I'm almost but not quite yet done.

    Reworking my computer area (daily driver + retro)

    (TW: anxiety inducing cable mess) In 2011, when I moved into an appartment with my girlfriend, she wanted us to tackle cable management. In my head, it was a 'let's buy 1 thing and get it done, anytime you want'. ... Fast forward into 2022, we've since then re-moved into an house (2015) and...

    The exact moment Mac84 got his Quadra 840av working after 5 years!

    Did you take a pic of that broken trace? Sometimes it's informative to check on how just how deviously hard to see they can be.

    I flashed my BlueSCSI to the latest v1.1-20220404 firmware, Mac Plus benchmark comparisons

    More BlueSCSI speed tests by tweaking the SCSI driver on my Mac Plus w/ system 6.0.8 I tried using the suggested Silverlining 6.0.1 for driver changes and SCSI Director Pro 4 for visual benchmarks. I got a drop of performance when I tried the "Silverlining fast handshake one", it got down to...

    I flashed my BlueSCSI to the latest v1.1-20220404 firmware, Mac Plus benchmark comparisons

    If you have a Mac Plus: assuming your BlueSCSI works as is, the SCSI Accelerator should be plenty enough, no pressing need to do a firmware update If you have other machines as well: be safer than sorry and do the firmware and apply SCSI Accelerator only for your Mac Plus If you don't have a Mac...

    I flashed my BlueSCSI to the latest v1.1-20220404 firmware, Mac Plus benchmark comparisons

    Using SCSI Director Pro v2.1.7 after the very last bootloader + firmware flash: no significant changes. But then, a true hero appears @VicNor on the discord server! He had specialized knowledge about Mac Plus and SCSI drivers - it turns out several drivers of the day were written for the lowest...

    I flashed my BlueSCSI to the latest v1.1-20220404 firmware, Mac Plus benchmark comparisons

    After spending some time receiving help from @eric in Discord in the RaSCSI/BlueSCSI server, I finally updated the right bootloader into my blue pill. The LED flash frequency went about from 2 flashes/s (old bootloader) to about 6 flashes/s (new bootloader enabling usb updating). So as it...
