iMac G3 monitor | za/ch

I am not sure why deleting a page break in AppleWorks for the #IIgs can reliably reproduce this error message.

But, I can say that I do love that I am presented with a second option.

("OTHER button" sadly does nothing. It would be even more entertaining if it did something.)

There's some retrocomputing among these boxes...

I've tried to turn this iMac into a monitor, but it is not displaying anything :(

After making sure it's getting the (unusual) resolution it wants, and putting the old logic board in to confirm that the screen does still work, it looks like I may need to collect my own initialization data to send to the display. I've wanted to finally get familiar with I2C so maybe today is the day.

I've made great progress so far today on #VirtusVR. I'm getting what seem to be coordinates, so I've cleaned up the C parser and started working on an OpenGL renderer...

On another note, apparently this software is part of a family of CAD programs and a 1988 FPS called "The Colony" for the early Mac: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Colony_(video_game)

I'm surprised nobody's taken a crack at this yet, but I guess I was bumping my head against it for a while. Thanks a bunch, ImHex! ๐Ÿ˜Œ

The antique mall Newton MessagePad 100 is alive. The audio cap seems to have destroyed things, and thereโ€™s one row of dead pixels, but otherwise itโ€™s functioning. #vintageapple
