I'm focused on HyperCard programming. Wrote a Wordle clone in HyperCard and posted a rather long video explaining how it works. Realized once that was done what I really want and need to do is a series on HyperCard Authoring and Programming. Started the outline today - it's going to be a long...

Tried it out and it works great. The color version is a bit slower as you've pointed out. I tried the B&W version on my Performa 550 to see if it was any faster. It appears the B&W version is fixed to the classic screen resolution - entirely understandable.

Better image with can size in mm.

Images of the boards.

I'm pretty new at this and could not find a kit at Console5. Could someone check my replacement selection list? I've tried to find the same or better specs including size. On the screen 4 x 47 uF 16V 2 x 10 uF 16V 2 x 10 uF 25V On the power board 2 x 22 uF 25V

Found a PowerPC G5 for $35 recently. Needed a good dusting out but otherwise good. Replaced the 80 GB spinning drive with a older SSD I had sitting around. Also just picked up a PowerBook 180c. Everything works and the drive sounds like it’s about to fail. The screen is fine and I know I should...

I've been looking at something similar so I can extend a cable from my Performa 550 drive bay to the expansion slot opening. But then I'd be using up the expansion slot opening. Periodically opening the rear panel gives me pause - one of these days I'm going to break a plastic tab. A...

This is so awesome! Thank you! I tried several times to get earlier releases to work and gave up.

Recapping completed. Had a couple of pads come off but was able to fix it with a bit of wire and offsetting one of the caps over the remaining trace to the pad.

I pulled the trigger and ordered the CCII kit. I'll post when it gets here.

Looking at capacitor replacement kits at console5.com for my Performa 550. It's not listed specifically, so I'm trying to be careful and verify. The board in my Performa is marked "820-0368-A" which is listed at console5.com as a Color Classic II board. Isn't the Performa 550 main board the same...

Went ahead and created it anyway. It renders correctly from the program. However, when I am reading the minutes dialog box, the following code segment isn't working properly. It is able to get the val - the position of the selected menu item. GetItem() either returns a garbage string (first...

Very Nice! I should start looking for a 540c screen for my 520!

I’m stumped! The DITL renders the controls but the DLOG does not! I’ve rechecked and rebuilt it twice.

This is the computer I learned BASIC programming on back in the early 80's. Still have it but haven't turned it on in about five years. Worked the last time it was on. I gave my eldest daughter a lesson in BASIC programming back when she started college using it so she could understand the struggle.

Very useful!

I've been thinking about making replacement rubber feet for my PowerBook 520c using hand made silicone molds. I had some success creating polyurethane parts for a 116 to 120 film spool adapter for an antique camera. The cheap silicone caulk mixed with corn starch I used to make the mold was...

Source too - that's cool. And it's the MIT license which is even better! I have the source to Flappy Mac. I'll have to check this out too.

I’m interested! Just in the middle of a project right now. I am also getting into 68K game development. Mostly in HyperCard but plan to migrate to C sometime soon.

Yo. Still here and lurking once in a while. I've been busy rebuilding a Burke & James 4x5 Press film camera. The poor thing was kept in a basement left to rust. Learning quite a lot about painting aluminum - self etching primer is a thing. And how to construct a camera bellows - it's difficult...
