This brings back memories: #Diablo2

Though I prefer #Diablo 1 and I've already installed #DevilutionX, it's been so long since i've played D2.

And everything is so snappy on #OSX #Leopard with an #SSD so I've spent hours installing stuff in general just as an excuse to play with the machine.

Time to play on this portable mac gaming powerhouse:

#PowerbookG4 12" 1.5GHz
#Nvidia GeForce FX Go 5200
128GB SSD
1.25GB RAM
64MB VRAM

#Apple #Macintosh #VintageMac #PowerPC #PPC #Retrocomputing #mac

Spent the entire day building a modern *nix ecosystem for the 12" 1.5GHz #PowerbookG4 with the new #SSD drive.

#MacPorts is such a great tool and community with archives for atleast some prebuilt packages.
Thanks!

In total 266 packages installed today. Not done yet though but managed to get the essentials including:
- bash 5.3.9_0
- gcc14 14.3.0_0
- openssh 10.3p1_0
- openssl3 3.6.1_0
- python314 3.14.5_0
- zsh 5.9_3

Bought an #SSD Upgrade to the #Powerbook G4 12" 1.5GHz

- chenyang mSATA Mini SATA SSD to IDE 44Pin
- Transcend MSA230 128GB mSATA SSD

Opening up this computer takes some commitment. And while I was in there I also lubricated the CPU fan to fix some noise. Then booted the computer from an external #Firewire disk and restored the #Sorbert Leopard image.

I've been cleaning up my space where my #homelab and stuff is. It's my pretty little #Mac collection and other misc parts.

Not pictured: The PowerMac G5 and MacBook Pro 5,1 systems, or the boxes of cables and parts all over the shelf next to this shelf (because it's messy).
