Francois Dion@Yehuda SE/30 are hard to find, but it is #MARCHintosh so perhaps somebody has one they'd be willing to part with.
Karl BaronCould this be the first battery-powered, fully-wireless ImageWriter II in history? Well, it might at least be the first one on #GlobalTalk!
Just in time for the end of #MARCHintosh, a cheap Farallon AirDock showed up on Yahoo Auctions, and since I already had one, I had to try this stunt - adding an IRTalk node to GlobalTalk.
It is currently live on GlobalTalk if you want to try it, I'll probably leave it up until either the battery runs out or I deem it too much of a tripping hazard.
This morning I have installed macOS 26.4, 15.7.5, 10.12 and 10.15.7 on three different machines.
Now restoring back to 10.8 then 10.10 to test something. Maybe more.
#MARCHintosh Canvas 1.0.1 is out, fixing crashes on connect on Macs with 68000 processors and Macs without Color QuickDraw (the Venn diagram of which is a perfect circle…)

adacostaFor early adopters, embracing OS X came with conviction and commitment and serious performance penalty due to having run many older apps through Classic. It was usable to some degree, but it wasn’t surprising if you just booted into #Mac OS 9 to get work done. #MARCHintosh
