As of now, you may also access the UNNA.org sites via #HTTPS in addition to standard #HTTP!

Go ahead, try it out:

https://www.unna.org/

Newfangled, huh!

Don't worry, we're not taking away the venerable HTTP connectivity, nor will we be automatically redirecting any connections to HTTPS. After all, we need to be able to connect from our #AppleNewton #MessagePad and #eMate!

Designed and printed a 4 x AA NiMH battery tray for the Apple eMate. This lets me change the batteries out quickly because they're not soldered, welded, or wrapped together. The bottom of the tray is open so you can push the batteries out easily. The fit should be snug.

Gorgeous device that grandfathered many innovations in mobile… and field-tested the translucent-plastic era that the original iMac sported. #Newton #NewtonOS #AppleNewton #eMate #eMate300 #RetroComputing https://stefanbohacek.online/@discontinued/114901162155888372

My final project for #MARCHintosh 2025. Sitting on the couch downloading an app to my #Newton #eMate over wifi from my workshop server that is 5 miles away on a different zone on #globaltalk.

Seems simple by today’s standards but that took a lot of retro tech to make it happen.

2x LC475 (AIR routers)
1x Original Airport Basestation
1x clamshell iBook to setup BS
1x rebuilt eMate battery plus eMate hinge repair
1x PCMCIA wifi card that would support #appletalk

That is a Mic drop for me.

Cool little admin tool for #globaltalk. The only issue is that you need an #eMate or #Newton 2x00, a wifi card that can handle AppleTalk, and original Apple Airport Basestation connected to your existing GlobalTalk node. It did a good job of finding @europlus Laser printers. Thanks to @splorp for pointing me to this little gem.
More photos of the #eMate battery rebuild

I’ve just ordered some tabbed AAs to rebuild my #emate battery pack - but now #MARCHintosh and #globaltalk are looking intriguing.

Is there a “start here” webpage for those of us with only intel Macs?
