This is one of those questions like “on the tip of my tongue” but instead of trying to remember some TV show or movie, I am looking for information about a silly piece of software I downloaded from some BBS in the 90s. Everyone who lived through the events surrounding OJ Simpson‘s white bronco...

Or, maybe it is now? I never even considered grabbing my own mirror of these old software archives, but at around 5 gigs, this is like streaming a single movie so why not? Download is working for me right now.

Love that price! Shipping will probably be several times higher than that, but I can understand, given all of the options why a service like JLC3DP can make a lot of sense vs. getting in to a DIY setup (and honestly, another big hobby). If you decide to get these, I am confident one of them...

you’ll have to trim out the one you want to use, but there will be options!

Maybe this will work.

I used black PLA. How about this. I will make a set, staring with a .2mm brim that links together a few different versions, each with thin to thicker bottoms giving you a variety— say .5mm, 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm giving you some flexibility with feel. 1mm worked fine for me but who knows how much...

I can’t fault them for that. . .as it also preserves the supreme clarity of the top shell. And maybe not all internal PCBs or microswitches are the same. In any case, the button works beautifully now. I was afraid I would never get used to the stiffer button—especially fatiguing with a drag. The...

How big does the brim have t be again? I printed mine with a brim because I didn’t want it to pop off the print bed it is so tiny. . . but that was slicer generated. I could make one with a .2mm brim built in. This is something you could probably knock together with a straw and baking soda +...

Ok, time to add another tiny update to this thread. . . My MacEffects clear mouse shell is great, and I even added handmade clear ADB cord. But the button which is a flexing portion of the upper shell has always been very difficult to click. Maybe this is true for others, or maybe it's just the...

Hey, everyone. . . I was obviously late to the party the first couple go-rounds with GlobalTalk, but now that my SE/30 is restored and many of us have access to networking via BlueSCSI2 or other methods, GlobalTalk still seems to be a fun experiment—especially for those of us just getting their...

Thinking about this a little more— given the inevitable electrolyte leaks happen across all of the boards in roughly similar locations, we have good techniques to find the common issues, but now that I am long past the point of frustration or impatience, I find that the variances from case to...

To my point, I think the question is too broad— you would need to ask, what Address lines could be broken between chip X and chip Y, or from the bus to chip X and so on. A broken address line to the sound chip, for example, might be fine until audio kicks in. That was the case while...

SO, I think the generalization gets mistakenly applied because address and data lines are on a “bus” and many components are tapping into that bus in parallel. I am perhaps oversimplifying it, but in my case, D31 may have only been broken between CPU and SCSI (or more likely, it was D31 on SCSI...

My SE/30 had a broken D31 to the CPU—something I did not find until I had problems mounting a SCSI drive. A bodge fixed it after some tedious continuity testing which was a balancing act front-to-back while trying to hold my probe on the right CPU pin. Perseverance pays off and a quick bodge had...

Thanks for sharing your journey! It is inspiring to see another example of someone taking on an SE/30 restoration project. Having been down that road myself, I know how much of an exercise in patience this really is. Mine took me a year, though I was working, and certainly not troubleshooting...

Ok, so the Wayback Machine was having some issues, down etc. but I did eventually a screenshot of the www.awkwardtv.org page with from Jun 7, 2012 showing content related to ATV OSX with 10.4.7. It’s just a screenshot, so no links to this content, but with some digging (and a functioning wayback...

Yeah, Last night I opened the original zip, mounted the .dmg and checked the version details. By the way, there is an easy way to determine the OS version if you know where to look: /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist It was definitely a 10.5.8 or something, NOT a 10.4 tiger...

Interesting. I am pretty sure that #4 on linked page was the image I shared. I later described upgrading my ATV using some iDeneb resources per the old akwardTV forum, but I thought this was a Tiger starting point. I assume from the comments on that page that someone has actually tried #4 and...

It looks like @scj312 grabbed the zip file I made with my old Tiger image (from original ATV Hacking, AkwardTV etc. days) and uploaded to the Garden: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/mac-os-x-apple-tv-1st-generation Which is good, because my old Mega upload is long since scrubbed.

Ok, I did a little sleuthing- - - @jmacz stalking on another forum. I am guessing this is another great restoration in a long line them. This is probably a MO drive, am I right?
