    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    I don't know. I wish I had a great solution. My personal desire would be to default to light mode, but it seems like a lot of folks like dark mode more. So then you have the same problem, just in reverse. A giant welcoming banner that says, "Hey, if you don't like the look, change it in...

    Macchimey?

    It seemed to. At least, the 512KE it was on never had problems. I installed a NewLife memory/SCSI upgrade so it was drawing some extra power. But I didn't have it thermocoupled or an air flow meter at the top. So I couldn't tell you that it objectively worked. By girlfriend (now my Ex and...

    Macintosh II with ROM-SIMM

    I had a ~$900 order ready to go with them based off of one quote and otherwise their web page. Then the emails from them started rolling in. Oh, sorry, we don' t actually have any of the RTC or ADB chips we listed as 30,000+ in stock. The Flash you wanted is 5 times the price that's on our...

    Macintosh II with ROM-SIMM

    Nice work. About the SWIM, Utsource quoted me $110 each with a minimum of 100 last week. I don't know who is going to spend $11,000 on SWIM chips... It does imply that there are far more than 100 available, though.

    My PowerMac 7100/80 AV Recap Project

    You've probably already done it, but don't forget to replace the heat sink compound on the PPC601. Still smarting over the hours I spent trouble-shooting 20 years ago, when the whole problem was bad heat sink compound....

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    I do not like the dark mode at all. I find it extremely difficult to read. But then, I'm 58-years-old. Nothing wrong with my eyes AFAIK, but I'm older. If dark mode was all that was available, I would give up on trying to read the site. I mention this, because it wasn't until I looked...
