    Flashing an Adaptec AHA-2940UW to Mac

    This is luckily, the AIC-7880P. I do actually have some 29F010 EEPROM's, which i presume should also work in place of those earlier ones mentioned, but i bought a dozen of the Atmel ones, just in case. I found the firmware updater - it's STILL on the adaptec site! If i have time, i'll solder...

    Flashing an Adaptec AHA-2940UW to Mac

    So, i seem to recall when i was working in the DTP/Pre-press industry about 20 years ago, UW SCSI was the absolute best thing since sliced bread. All those high density 68-pin cables and nice trapezoidal chunky connectors....aaah, those were the days. Anyway - I have before me, an Adaptec...

    CRT monitor forum?

    The apple, commodore and atari sections all feature their own area for monitors - were you meaning a general 'catch all'?

    Power Macintosh 7200/7300/7500/7600 Power Button

    If you do, I'll buy one, my 7500 has a snapped one.

    I bought two from amigakit in the end - pricey, but they work well and provide term power :)

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    I know Stephen Leary did a mass purchase of a lot of the KEL connectors, over on exxos forum, for the A1200 accelerators he was designing, I'll have a poke around!

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    The holy grail, at least for me! OK, how about the PDS connections for the Quadra machines? They look like KEL connectors like the Amiga uses.

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    The one i'd love to find is the CPU card slot for the x500/600 series.

    5v FPM DIMM's!

    These are getting surprisingly harder to find. Seriously, this haul of 4x64MB and 2 x 32MB DIMM's cost more than a 32GB DDR4 kit... But it'll be worth it! The extra 256MB is destined for my 9600, the other 64MB destined for the 7500. @Zane Kaminski - reckon you could make these with more...

    Macintosh connector part numbers

    As the title states, i'd like to compile a list of all the connectors used in Macs, and to do that, i'd like to ask anyone that has knowledge of a particular part number to add it here. Once i've got a list together, i'll make a sticky post in the relevant section. So far, from @trag we have...

    PowerMac G3 Personality Card - looking for 182 pin PERCH 90’ edge connector adapter

    Connector people are great! They still sell the 64-pin sockets for ROM's and IIfx RAM.

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    Use the PT Sans Caption for both light and dark, it's a nice easy to read font IMHO

    Sonnet Crescendo G3/400

    Not sure yet - I have my eye on a G4-500 for the 9600, but it's being sold as 'broken' despite chiming and will boot partially (hoping it's a PEBKAC issue, so i can grab it cheap!). If i get that, then this will probably end up in the 7500 - which then means i have a few other G3 cards going...

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    @Branchus , can we make the font consistent across themes?

    Dark mode vs. Light mode

    A banner is definitely easy to implement, and an excellent suggestion!
