. . . wasn't getting them and now my mailbox is being carpet bombed. :eek: Wasn't clear to me when I tried to tweak preferences yesterday, that's the first time I've looked to change anything, so I know I didn't initiate the bombing campaign.

Have you got a floorplan of your kitchen handy? Curious about your work triangle, window and door placement.

Working from blurred, caffeine deprived memory this AM: DiiMO 030 is installed in the IIci Cache Slot. In the remainder of the the Macintosh II family it would work in an adapter and might in the SE/30 as well. ISTR saving a pic of its low rise SE/30 adapter, though it might be from another...

Very nice, good to hear you know Murphy and his tricks. I've had a great working relationship with Murphy myself, when he screwed up the projects of others, it was my business to bail them out. This put me in good stead to turn his mischief around to my advantage whenever he messes with my...

My Duo System bag/briefcase was a Tenba camera bag, still have it, can't beat it. But prices have kept up with inflation, they don't appear to have cheapened their products, I guess that goes with a lifetime warranty? The bag I use for my traveling NetBook these days was a Goodwill find with a...

Absolutely fabulous! Will you be using a contrasting colored plastic cutting board on that beautiful butcher block countertop? One bit of advice from a former plumbing department team leader: be on the lookout for an inexpensive single hole faucet set at Habitat outlets etc. All sprayer hoses...

From Duo System DevNote Connections deleted for brevity: Address, Data, Power, GND, Docking Control lines, passthru connections for ADB, FDD, Serial, Modem, Sound, sleep etc. Duo System Main Expansion Connector Table 4-1 Main expansion connector signal assignments Pin ___ Signal name ___...

The Radius IIsi NuBus Adapter and DuoDock II NuBus implementations would be what makes me think that a goodly portion of the Rev.A HALs might be excised from its NuBus chipset: If NuBus MUX can be identified and eliminated from the Rev.A NuBus schematic, then the NuBus controller might be...

Thanks, good to see the transceivers are available, once the Rev.A schematic is developed and compared to the IIcx schematic, four (possibly eight?) of the HAL ICs might be eliminated in order to implement the remainder on a test board?

Thanks, great resource. History of NuBus seems particularly relevant here as it was standardized in 1987, well after development of the Macintosh II, released March 2 that year. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NuBus https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_II...

I think my notes are long gone, but ISTR deciding that the NuBus ChipSet in the DuoDock was a pure, Apple-unadulterated but rebadged TI product. Which edition of DCaDftMF are you referencing?

Anything I'll build will be a new PCB daughtercard for an abbreviated version max's Macintosh IIcx board. Hope to test several configurations in a DIMM slot placed between Slots and the main logic board. Throwing in a PDS slot and maybe a IIci Cache Slot adaptation for my PowerCache for bonus...

OK, it's here if anyone wants to take a peek: https://tinkerdifferent.com/resources/texas-instruments-nubus-interface-products-data-book-1991.43/

Sorry, lost track of that tidbit with all the projects coming together of late. Glad to see you've come over to the dark side. :p

Here we go again, guys. As the apprentice, this is what I do on these projects. Once I set up all the pins in a neat grid I can watch you sorcerers team up to bowl them over one after the other! :p @Bolle Are you saying that it's not practical, or even possible to build an automated datalogger...

@Zane Kaminski you're forgetting that max is the unrivaled Zen Master of the LC Clan and wields the power to bend the LCIII PCB layout to his will, even to the point of reformatting its form factor to fit another machine. ;) I keep telling him to move to another 72pin SIMM for Bank A, but I...

I'm officially late for work. As I was leaving it was at my doorstep, a day early, well packed, fully intact including programmer's switch. It has the prettiest, most nicely accented, new in Mac TOBY card that I have ever seen! :D

The KBD is thick enough for mechanicals, IIgs caps would be perfect and notice that the LCD housing is hinged up at the forward edge. :D

You mentioned a black version wtih different key setup, post pic? LCIII board would be perfect, video outputs 640x480 VGA in the LC series, no? Board would be inverted so ports hit the backplane upside down along the top edge with room for your FDD or even a SCSI bridged slotloader optical from...
