    Replacement display screw caps?

    I have one on my PB180 display front bezel but the other one is missing. I was thinking of casting the one I have in a silicone mold and then using a higher shore level silicone to pour into the mold and replicate it. Hard part would be matching the color.

    BlueSCSI V2 locks up when attempting to “spin up” the drive

    I’m running 7.5.3 on a PB180 with BlueSCSI and can set it to never spin the drive down and it’s working. My PB180 has the same “wake from sleep” issue that my Macintosh Portable has.

    Nubus Activity

    Hi all, I’m working on a IIcx board repair and need to know if I should be seeing any activity on the NuBus address and data lines when no cards are plugged in. There’s no activity on any of the pins. Just stuck high or low. When I power the board on or hit reset all I get is a sad Mac chime...

    Spectre GCR question

    I read somewhere that the Spectre GCR can directly read SCSI Mac hard drives. If anyone knows, does this mean I could plug a Mac formatted Jaz drive into the scsi port on an ST at STacy for example? I thought the ST’s hard drive port was ACSI not SCSI .?.

    I just realized that the “Metal Stamp” sound that you can set in CodeWarrior when the compiler successfully finishes is the exact same “Gate Slam” that Prince of Persia makes after a gate opens and slams shut. And I believe Prince of Persia came out in 1992 or earlier prior to the first version...
