Bin/cue with audio tracks works as well, which is fantastic:

Fantastic -- checked out from your PR and: Thanks for both the fix and explaining how you researched it. I'd never played around with the Peripherals or Breakpoints windows before; I'm guessing you knew enough about SCSI to know what to monitor?

My host machine is actually Golden Gate, as of today. The emulated machine is a IIcx with a Toby cared running System 7.1, installed from the Apple Mac OS 7.1 MultiPack CD-ROM, which is the third download on that page. For CD images, I've tried a few dozen ISOs and Bin/Cues, drawn from the...

I am, I think: But the vendor is still SNOW:

Curious if folks have had any luck with CD-ROM mounting? Snow seems to present its own brand as the Vendor ID, which I think will prevent Apple's CD-ROM driver from recognizing the device...

Great research, and indeed a wonderfully clean example! I can easily imagine them using up the last few cases and motherboards into 1991, plus some big orders may have been awaiting fulfillment from slow-moving customers (regulated industries, governments) that would prefer tried-and-true over...

Wow, was not expecting that level of polish! I don't know your comfort level with sharing the source code, but i'd be glad to try and help with the back-port to earlier NextStep versions.

One approach would be retrieval-augmented generation, where a local model queries embeddings from PDFs or texts you provide. There are a lot of projects on GitHub for this kind of thing, although I don't know the one specific one I would try. There is a plugin for LMStudio (a cross-platform...

I do have a working MO drive, and have imaged some beta OS/Application disks successfully. 'Forensically' imaging MO disks can be a bit tricky, but folks have actually updated the NeXT emulator (previous) to work better with what is possible from the hardware side. (The drive isn't attached...

I have a vague memory of a proposed namespace for zones linked in this way -- as otherwise the Chooser list would be trully unmanageable. No idea how that would have scaled, even if the zone names had been kept distinct. Maybe only one 'DMZ Zone' would have been shared per organization? I do...

Ugh, that's annoying! Well, rest assured there are lots of us that appreciate your work reanimating DDP on modern Netatalk...

I have the same configuration (2mb) and can't get DaynaPort to work either; I just figured it was the well-documented RAM requirement. Would be nice if those RAM cards returned to production, although I guess there's a sweet spot you want to stay under to avoid a system slowdown.

I recap'ed my Portable power supply that was in similar/worse condition... one tip is to (carefully!) do an output voltage test before you re-glue the case together, in case any adjustment is needed. Be careful of course as the line voltage is right there and lethal until the case is re-sealed.

I have this card as well, and to be honest, can't really see a speed difference in either my 660av or 8100/110. But I've been meaning to do more scientific testing. I suspect using Netatalk and monitoring throughput on the linux side would be one solution. You also have to decide how far...

I found this long-form piece on returning to PageMaker 5 by a former graphic artist a worthwhile read: https://stonetools.ghost.io/pagemaker-mac/

Today a February 1996 issue of MacWEEK was uploaded to the Internet Archive featuring a 'beta test' of the Apple Network Server 700. Unlike most of MacWEEK's stories about unreleased machines, this seems to have been an official loan of pre-release hardware. They photographed the server in...

Curious if anyone has tried out the LToUDP feature in the new version of Snow? I can get it to see AppleShare servers, but not connect to them. This is under System 6.05, with AppleShare clients 2.02, 3.01, and 3.5. I'm aware of timing issues and have the emulator set to 1x speed...

Yes, the ƒ was kind of an odd convention. Seemed to occur in some communities (programmers, BBSers) and not very much in others. I suppose it helped differentiate folders with custom icons from the applications themselves within the folder. Commonplace enough to recognize but not something I...

I will say, as the owner of a IIsi in 1990, the speakers on these are quite prone to losing their connection -- it's just pressure pad fingers, which can easily oxidize. If you're getting headphone audio but no speaker audio, try cleaning both the speaker assembly and the place on the...

You know, I really am happy that the codebase is being kept alive. I purchased the (2008?) App Store release, which I’m pretty sure is either 32bit only or Intel-only, so this would be a nice follow-on to that color experience. Having said that, I think the real genius of Dark Castle was the...
