I had a batch of these printed up in nylon resin to fix some broken keys on a Ti99/4a keyboard and they seem to fit really well. Endorsed. I have a dozen or so extras I can stick in an envelope if anyone needs them.

The ADDRESS signals will run to multiple ICs but exactly how they get there isn't important on a schematic. On the schematic you'll see ADDRESS come in and some subset of the signals (A0 - A31) connect to pins on a chip. ADDRESS A0 anywhere in the schematic should be connected to ADDRESS A0...

That's the schematic shorthand for saying those all stay together as a 32-bit wide bus rather than drawing out all 32 everywhere.

Linux isn't going to fall for those OF shenanigans, OS9 probably will be so try flashing from there. Linux re-probes the PCI bus itself so it's going to pull up the 6112 ID again. I think that 6112 ID is a red herring. The main ID is still 3112, it's the subsystem device ID that's 6112 (aka RAID...

Correction; Most of the magazines are Communications of the ACM, with 5 issues of ACM Queue mixed in. It's an almost complete set from September 2007 to October 2013. Only April 2010 seems to be missing. The 43 issues of IEEE Computer look to go from May 2008 to March 2012. 4 of the ACMs have...

It shouldn't be a big deal. WiFi is ethernet over an invisible wire. The association and authentication can be handled by and hidden by the Pico and just expose the ethernet layer to the Mac. It's been done by dumb Wifi-ethernet bridge devices for as long as there has been WIFI. Longer even as...

Nah. There's a whole second CPU core on the Pico currently unused that can babysit the WiFi.

Dynaport emulation would probably be the easiest feature to start with because the Pico would be doing any processing, just passing packets in and out. Maybe with a WiFi configuration utility added to the Toolkit eventually. That depend on the underlying Pico libraries getting WiFi working...

I picked up a selection of ISA & PCI expansion cards from somebody this evening and they had a box full of IEEE Computer magazines from the early 2010s. Print magazines aren't my bag but I can act as an intermediary if someone wants them. My example photo was worse than I expected but you can...

I happened to have picked up an Adaptec 29160 card a couple of weeks ago, it should be the single-channel version of your dual-channel 39160. I slapped it into the G5 I have out of storage and plugged in one of those BiTMICRO SCSI SSD's that popped up last month. Sorbet Leopard booted without...

There's a PowerDomain Control Utility for slightly older cards that's can flash the firmware on those cards so I'd say that it's a good chance that you can flash in place in the Quicksilver. Oh, there's a PowerDomain 39160 Flash Utility for Mac as well so I think you have an excellent chance of...

Oh, I also printed a "hook" to hang he dog's leash that is shaped like the back end of a dog. The leash hangs from it's tail.

I recreated the plastic brackets that hold the retaining bars that keeps things from falling out of the door shelves on my fridge. That was maybe like 20g of plastic that went to something useful out of the 5+ kilos of junk I've printed.

Some legitimate causes of bloat: more pixels and colors. Icons and graphics are a lot bigger and there are more of them. There are often multiple resolutions now and they're all true color and often with alpha channels. For example, video RAM used for the whole screen on a Mac Classic is under...

I left the house to pick up a Powerbook G4 off Craigslist and stumbled onto a treasure trove of old stuff from a friend's garage. The headliner is a Lisa with a Profile drive: We couldn't find the top case for the Profile drive nor the cable and controller card, yet. The Lisa mouse was also...

I thought I saw that in git already. It probably doesn't work but it looks like somebody started down that path

A quick glance through everymac.com suggests that the lamp shades only supported VGA output, so you'd need an active (read: expensive) VGA to DVI(or HDMI) convertor to then feed into the DVI to ADC adapter.

Awesome I just spent some time perusing the code to see how you guys are making use of the RP2040 PIOs, because what better way to spend an evening. I gotta say, that is a very nice and approachable codebase. Everything is clean and clear, even the PIO code which such a different paradigm from...

Apple has their IP over Firewire protocol support but I don't remember if classic MacOS supported it. If it does then it's kinda already done, you just have to tether to a newer Mac.
