@Webecedarian do you have access to a computer that has access to the internet, a floppy drive and disks ? You will need all of them. Based on prior conversations i suspect you don't. You can buy used Wordperfect from eBay. I did a search and found lots of results. YMMV. But that might be a...

reminds me of how to troubleshoot network problems in the 90's when we all had ethernet hubs and a printer was creating a storm. and you had to find which one was doing it.

Maybe the smoke detectors think they are too old and want to be replaced. are they over 10 years old ? .. idk why that would be tied to power outages though.

i also like to use other world computing. as another option USB Universal Drive Adapter

forgive my ignorance ?

https://www.kansasfest.org/ I'll be there. first time post pandemic for me.. there is also a virtual event after the physical event.

as you said, the user expectation is that new windows pop up on the one with the menubar. So its prolly best to stick to what most apps did ? just to be consistent. I remember most apps just yelled at me if i had the "wrong bit debth" set. but a few would be able to switch to the one they...

others have already said this. but to be super clear. (and trying to help by saying the same thing in a different way) any purchase you make today that is the same vintage as your current computer will have similar issues. Because they are are similar in age. We can try to teach you how to do...

as someone who owns one.... thats very true. its still in its box. my hope is i'll eventually get it up and going enough to connect it to the irc / chat thingie. but i don't hold out much hope i will do more with it.

I'm guessing Microsoft Hololense is like Apple's vision ? seems like they are targeting the same audience and price point. even though what Apple is doing is just doing what everybody else is doing. I'm still more excited about their implementation then anybody else.

you are in the right place.

how about sunglasses ? idk. i don't think its really there yet. i would still prefer a vision pro. or vision (for the rest of us)

Behind the monitor is a small board. the video board with 4 pots. To get access you take the top cover off. This is also an area to be careful because its RIGHT next to the tube. (its in the same cage as the monitor) your other questions are good questions i hope to hear the answers too my self !

Old vending machines. taging @Kay K.M.Mods and @JDW as the two people I know in Japan. I thought this was neat. They have some vending machines that are from the 80s. And heat food using ovens or something.

yeah you can pair it with Bluetooth devices. Keyboards mice ps5 controllers …. you can just look at your Mac. And then it syncs and you can use the Mac in it. if anybody can make the hand gestures to work. Apple can. But I agree there is a huge risk there that it won’t work. I’m actually not...

https://www.apple.com/apple-vision-pro/ ... i figure if i can put away $350/month. by the time it comes out i could afford it! ... ... I don't think i can make room in my budget for that.....

don't make my mistake and break the capslock key. i think there is a spring or something that can easily come out.

The 8GB limit is just where the OS lives. it has to be in the first 8GB of the hard drive. Which usually happens when you do a fresh install. The trick is, if you later update or something, the hard drive might decide to move the OS outside of that 8GB. which would cause the computer not to...

i just finished the video. Thanks for posting ! very interesting.. ... First they did say it was a 68000 . a few times actually. Based on this video i think it was just a little prototype thing to run a big screen. It didn't run any Lisa nor Mac software. Later he made another prototype that...
