Right now notes are just a dated list in chronological order. I don't currently have maintenance activities as a generic data set so no way to directly link the two. I'll have to see how I might be able to provide that ability in a way that is intuitive and easy. I don't want things to get...

Since you seem to be in contact to them, one feedback maybe you could pass along is that their site doesn’t make it clear on the order page that shipping is available. When I went to the page before, it looked like they only offered local pickup. if they could add something like “shipping...

Yeah, I like that idea. I’ll have to think about how I want to design it in the database and APIs. It gets a bit more complex if the content of the notes need to be included in the search capability. I may leave the ones I already have as discrete date fields. Generally if anything of...

That is a good idea for flexibility. I have a field for “floppy reconditioned date”, as well as dates for recaps of the logic, analog boards, and PSU. I could add the ability to add your own description for a maintenance activity with a date. As for the clickable list, what would the list...

So, I've been making good progress on the iOS app, as well as prepping the backend to allow others to install and self host the server. The server compontent: The backend stuff has been a bit more challenging, since I built it very specifically for my own setup and with hard-coded domains...

That looks great. I wish I had known you were working on this when I started and I might have used it. One of the key features I really wanted, but maybe no one else wants / cares for, is the ability to have asset tags that allow me to attach them to the devices, and anyone (even those without...

Yeah, I think I have some with the resin custom connectors. I’ll have to add up my costs. Feel free to DM me. Also, note that the PB5xx chargers had two independent 16v power supplies. With these you only have one. So it will run the machine but not charge the battery.

That looks like a good free, mature alternative. I'll have to take a look and incorporate some of their ideas into mine. I spent a little more AI time working on this and the speed at which I'm able to add enhancements is amazing. So it has the ability to add/edit/delete devices, add/remove...

Yeah, I have over 100 devices, and now have over 1000 photos. I'd have to pay for the plan, and want the desktop computer access. Also, I don't like being dependent on hosted solutions where they charge an upfront fee. Unless they keep adding premium users, they will eventually have a hosting...

So, as many here have seen, I did update my web app to have a store for the devices I want to sell. I did that with the help of using AI coding tools, which has helped me build things much faster than if I were stumbling through a language and frameworks I'm not familiar with. On Monday, I...

The Dr. Bott's version looks like (by the marking on the back) it may work in either direction, given that one ADC port is marked "I/O" and the others are A/B/C/D. Also, looks like it has USB, but I'm not sure what that is for (power?). Mine...

I have a 4 port ADC / DVI switch from Gefen that has 4 DVI and USB inputs, and one ADC output. Allowing you to share a single ADC monitor (only the LCDs, though, since the CRT didn't support digital signals, and I believe the switcher didn't support analog signals (I could be wrong - never...

OK, published the PCB and case here in case anyone needs to make their own: https://github.com/wottle/SuperMac-DA-15-Adapter?tab=readme-ov-file

That did it! I forgot about the Preferences in the system folder. I deleted the Display Preferences from there and restarted, zapping the pram and I’m back in business. Thank you so much!

So, I was messing around with my PowerBook 190cs and I noticed in the Control Strip, it allowed me to select thousands of colors. So I selected it... Big mistake! Basically the screen when a slightly odd shade of gray. No problem, I thought, I will restart and zap the PRAM using the...

Adapter worked great. The 3d case did not work as well, because there is very little clearance below the connector. I revised the case to remove the bottom part of the 3d case underneath the male connector that goes into the back of the Mac. For the female connector the cable from the...

PCB arrived. Got the first adapter soldered up and the 3d printed case fits perfectly. May adjust it to cover the edges of the PCB, but it keeps the important bits protected. Haven't tested it yet, but it's a pretty simple setup with a single diode, so I expect it will work. The...

I'm considering it. I have a ton of machines I'm probably going to be looking to re-home and it feels like the best way to do it. The challenge is I have an event the Friday before and it would be a long drive for me to get up there. How's the one at System Source at the end of April in MD...

Ok, I got the wire replaced and I think it turned out pretty good. Definitely like the transparent cable over the stock gray one. The cable is a bit thicker than the stock, so I had to enlarge the hole in the battery compartment to accommodate. Now I need to see if I can replace the mouse...

OK, so sun-brighting has been going well. I've been able to get a bunch of cases clean. However, since the spring weather is cooperating, I decided to get started on my pressure washing of my driveway. And it has me convinced that these machines were not just dirty, but they were likely...
