I made a PCB recently using EasyEDA and ordering from JLCPCB. It can be purchased from here: https://jcm-1.com/product/pc-gameport-party/ The PC Gameport Party allows you to use your vintage PC’s gameport to its maximum use case scenario. Instead of having separate cabling solutions that would...

Office Lens straightens the pages right after taking pictures with it. I use the free PDFGear on my PC to assemble images and/or merge PDFs.

Anyone with access to Microsoft Office Lens (a phone app) and a bit of patience can scan imperfectly aligned books and force the app to auto-realign the result and export to PDF. The length lies in powering through the inevitable errors that seldom happen.

You can find 2 other books on THINK Pascal here: https://vintageapple.org/macprogramming/ not the same, but they probably provide examples of similar scope.

can you paste everything in your autoexec.bat and your config.sys files?

Here are my config.sys settings for when I need to use expanded memory so I can run SoftMPU. DEVICE=C:\DOS\HIMEMSYS /testmem:off DEVICEHIGH=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE 2048 AUTO (you can change the number 2048 to your needs - some rare programs complain when I had too much allocated RAM from my 256 mb...

TIL that HFS volumes have an extra dot. (won't show up in System 7.5.3, but still does in 6.0.8)

I'm currently looking to run this server on my Windows machine through WSL and I'm getting my behind kicked thoroughly. I'm very untrained in all things linux/ubuntu/whatever distro you want and I try not to mess with network stuff if I can help it usually - sadly, this project requires a HEAVY...

so this video made the rounds, and in it, Hunter Irving exposes how a linux flask server can act as a proxy for his Mac Plus using the very old MacWeb2.0c browser (but any old computer that can set up a http proxy is fair game, ie a SE/30, a windows xp machine, etc) Places that work with it...

This is my own MIDI cover of the piano solo from "Clubbed to death" by Rob Dougan, famously part of the Matrix motion picture soundtrack. This was captured from a vintage PC using a VGA to HDMI converter, and audio line in from the Roland SC-88ST. Software used: Cakewalk 5, MS-DOS version...

@Kai Robinson graciously provided an equivalency in discord. Here it is for posterity. 000 = 8086, 020 = 286, 030 = 386DX, 040 = 486DX, 060 = 5x86/Pentium 60/66, PPC601 = P75 - P120, PPC603 = Pentium MMX/P2 (ish), PPC604 = Pentium 2, PPC750 = P3

I used EasyEDA to design a small board that takes in a number* of MIDI producing devices (Mac, PC, Atari ST, F256K2, keyboard controller, keytar, etc) and pairs exactly one of those to another device among a number* of MIDI consuming devices (sound canvas, MT-32, modules, another computer with...

I've done that MIDI in subcircuit on breadboard and perfboard a number of times and it worked well with my stock of H11 optocoupler chips from Ali express. A midi interface typically needs to have a 1MHz oscillation signal divided by exactly 32 to get to the midi spec's 31,250 bps. Is that what...

I asked @Tashtari directly on discord and this was the reply: Personaly, I'm all for an exclusive MIDI interface as a cheap standalone - more people would be after that and it wouldn't force the higher cost of the MacRecorder upon it.

I made a 23 minute video on building it and messing with it (mostly for Studio Session)

how it started: how it's going:

Ah, the confusion from my part stems from demik's profile in 68kmla, I must have seen that since some euro currency price was referred at some point in some post, so I was curious, and I just assumed you, as a collaborator, hauled from France as well. My bad.

That's very kind of you, but we're based in Canada and the US and according to your profile, you're in France. I've already committed to get one from AliExpress.

Don't worry, I don't think you're being negative at all. Getting a project under multiple constraints is always a challenge and part of the fun. I'm well aware that I can bring modern day audacity recorded wav files and bring them to a system 7 mac first, run "Brian's sound tool" and convert...

I've been able to assemble a group buy of 4 boards being accounted for, so that part about ewaste is solved. The other aspect that isn't solved is the feeling that buying a $30 PIC kit3 that's used for this and never again makes me sit uneasy, but if it's the cost of doing business, then so be...
