Hence NIB/NOS items are almost always perfect, they are pretty much sealed from the atmosphere.Īlso, some plastics just don't give a fuck about oxygen and only yellow under UV light, I have a Amiga 600 that was used for years and it's as bright as my NIB Amiga 1200. Only some very shitty plastics do that, thanks to oxygen. The yellowing eventually affects all those machines regardless if they saw sun or not.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 16:32:41 2017 No.4340582 Not to mention, some machines never saw the light of day even when in use.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 16:25:54 2017 No.4340560 It's probably an old picture, also NIB/NOS exists. They didn't plan on the machines to be some jerkoff material 30 years after release.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 16:23:28 2017 No.4340550 >WTF is with these fucking companies using batteries that leaked in these fucking expensive computers? The G5 is for running "newer" software and be used for non distracting work too.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 16:06:32 2017 No.4340507Įither that photo is 25 years old, or the owner retrobrited the SHIT out of that thing.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 16:22:14 2017 No.4340543 I'm going to use the G4 for running older games and as a non distracting system for typing and some work. It's a 400 something MHZ with 1GB PC133 SDRAM, 40GB HDD, and a 32MB ATI or nVidia Card. Havn't booted it up for some time due to not having time lately to work on it. It plays all of the classic System 7 games. I have a G4 iMac in my closet I got on craigslist for $20, just had to put in a new HDD. I mostly ended up playing Crystal Quest and SimCity though.Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 14:51:50 2017 No.4340359 The thing had some weird stuff installed, like some shitty chinese beat em up, and a game called Iraq Attack where you controlled a helicopter bombing oil rigs and stuff. I had a Mac LC that I bought for about 10 dollars for a while. WTF is with these fucking companies using batteries that leaked in these fucking expensive computers?Īnonymous Fri Oct 20 14:50:11 2017 No.4340354 The battery leaked so bad I don't know if can be saved. I transferred those files to the MM via the 'unix' share, then downloaded them via browser to the CC. I have used SheepShaver on OSX to emulate a saved PowerBook image, and have installed StuffIt 4.0 on it, then attempted to create 4.0. I've attempted to install StuffIt 5.5 Deluxe, but have been unable to extract a working installer binary. I'm unable to use the Dropstuff Extractor, as it complains the StuffIt Engine isn't installed. These are things like MacSSH 68K, NiftyTelnet, and so forth, all made for 68k Macs. For the few that I have extracted, I am unable to run the binaries. Unfortunately, for most of these archives, I am unable to extract them. I then used Navigator to 'download' the files from the Mac Mini to the CC. sit archives from the download folder via "python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8888". sit archives to my OS X High Sierra Mac Mini, then served the. As iCab/Navigator are really slow, I have downloaded a few. The existing system drive has StuffIt 4.0 installed. The CC has a SMC ethernet card, which does work. The CC's floppy drive doesn't seem to work. (It came with 2 spare LC575 boards: one standard, and one with an 040 that was somehow overclocked with an oscillator and a heatsink(?!)). Over the weekend I've acquired a Color Classic with a LC575 motherboard 'Mystic' upgrade.
