@geerlingguy if I have time. Count me in on #Marchinosh

Just watched the ActionRetro video on getting the Mac Plus online with a BlueSCSI [1]. I got mine setup last year with the help of Basilisk II, but it was relatively convoluted.

Seems like using Infinite Mac makes us the process of creating disk images and downloading software much easier now. The Snow emulator [2] also is promising.

With recent improvements by @jcs.org to the BlueSCSI appear to speed up networking, this years #marchinosh is going to be even more fun than last year.

As part of my Subtext BBS troubleshooting issues I decided to tackle MacTCP once and for all- getting it to the absolute latest version (2.1). And I wrote up what I did so you can do it as well:

I also found out that the Apple Internet Route IP extension does not use MacTCP, it must be doing it's own thing for all it's IP TCPing.

MacTCP Done Right

After many months of dancing with MacTCP again (first round was decades ago of course) I decided to do it Right and get to the latest most patchiest version to see if it would help with some issues…

Best thing to come out of Marchintosh 2024 was the AIRConfig from @kalleboo. Updating my router configs is a snap.
