    PowerMac 6500 PCI graphics card options? (Feeling overwhelmed)

    I have a /275 and a TAM, though the 275 has a Twin Turbo card for video and the TAM doesn't have any cards installed (just CSII Ethernet), so I guess it will be worth observing them to see.

    Weird 5,2 Powerbook G4 issues...

    Are you sure the cycle count is accurate? 64 cycles sounds suspiciously "even."

    Comm Slot II 10/100 Ethernet Cards

    Realistically I don't think they could leave many lines off. The Tulip in the CSII Ethernet card is an off-the-shelf part and it would likely have made it more expensive to synthesize any missing signals, which would have defeated the purpose.

    What pinball games for Classic 68k and Power PC can you recommend?

    As an owner of a Stern Sopranos and Williams ST:TNG, I haven't been happy with many pinball simulations. I like The Pinball Arcade, but that's obviously very new. If I were to pick for classic Mac, though, it would be the Pro Pinball series, especially Fantastic Journey. It has the best physics...

    Mystic PPC WITH Apple IIe card

    Nice work, though I'm assuming that means it works with the PowerPC card deactivated.

    Comm Slot II 10/100 Ethernet Cards

    Excellent work, especially since I'm out of CSII Ethernet cards between my TAM and 6500. That said, I don't recall them being speed demons on either system. It did seem a little sprightlier in BeOS.

    VCF East Swap Meet-Photos

    Looks like a good meet. Too bad about the weather (and being on the wrong coast :D ).

    Looking for a nice picture of Portable CDEV 1.3

    I have an Androda screen grabber, but my prototype Portable is non-backlit.

    I Need Help Viewing Old Emails On My G4 MDD

    You could try Tenfourbird. This is a rebuild of Thunderbird 38 using TenFourFox code. It may be recent enough to open that.

    Oddest thing I ever say in a decade using an SE30

    Theoretically the message in a system error dialogue can be modified by altering the system error alert table. See Inside Macintosh's System Error Handler. It's possible something had altered it or stomped on that block of memory.

    Pi-hole and https proxy

    I use Crypto Ancienne, but then, I wrote it. Note that the browser needs to support it (or at least be tricked into supporting it, since HTTPS over HTTP is inherently insecure - see documentation for details). https://github.com/classilla/cryanc

    Odd G4 MDD Problems-Need Advice

    You say "the" flash drive. Does it do it with every flash drive?

    Compiling error sounds

    There's error sounds and there's error sounds. One is synthesized by the computer (bad RAM) and one is emitted as a physical consequence of hardware failure (click of death), so one would be a perfect recreation but the second would require recording.

    TwiSlot PCI Riser and ComSlot2 NIC repro in widened CS riser form factor

    Can you be more specific about the angle you want? I'm in the US with a TAM, but I may not be able to do this for a bit, since I have a family issue to deal with first.

    TwiSlot PCI Riser and ComSlot2 NIC repro in widened CS riser form factor

    Yeah, my TAM runs just fine with an L2 G3. Perhaps there was a difference in submodels or boards.

    Someone actually made a RetroBright product, I guess it was inevitable

    You could probably spread it with wiping pads or shop cloths too, couldn't you?

    I Need Advice-Could Someone Suggest To Me A Modern Power Supply Unit For My Clamshell iBook?

    Most of the PowerBooks of that generation use the same connector on a 45W supply. I use a Wally G3 power supply with my blueberryBook, but a later snow iBook or iBook G4 supply should also work. For that matter, I use a 45W supply with the same connector for my 1400.
