Subject: LCII and Multisync SVGA monitor
Date: 20 Aug 92 01:10:14 GMT
Organization: Cornell University, CS Dept., Ithaca, NY


	A friend of mine bought an LCII, thinking it would
work with his Mitac SuperVGA monitor. After much searching, he
also managed to buy an 9-pin-to-15-pin RGB-VGA adaptor to get
them connected. However, right now it seems he has sync problems:
He gets something like three flickering images on screen.

	I thought that multisync monitors were compatible with
Macs -- for example, I know the NEC multisyncs are also advertised
as Mac-compatible. My friend's monitor's manual mentions about
having an adaptor to make it work with a Mac.
Is this just a straight pin-to-pin adaptor like the one my friend got,
or so some montors really need a special one?

	Maybe it is something with the LC II video signal?
What hsync and vsync frequencies do Mac monitors have to support,
anyway?

	Mac gurus, please help. (I'll answer all your PC questions,
if you want :-) )


	Many thanks in advance.

Subject: How to I connect a LaserJet II to a IIci??
Date: 22 Aug 92 19:59:24 GMT
Distribution: comp

I would like to connect a HP LaserJet II to a Mac IIci.  So far
I have about 3 different answerrs to the problem.

1.  Just get a 8 pin round connector --> 15 pin RS 232 connector
	for the HP serial port.  Connect from printer port to 
	the HP.  (I don't believe this)

2.  Buy a apple talk --> parrallel cable with apropriate drivers
	from a company in Canada for ~150.  This would not print
	postscript, but would print.

3. Buy some sort of apple talk conversion box for ~500 which would
	preserve postscript, but cost $$$$$$$$$.

HP suggested version #3.  Note the Laser Jet II cannot be made
apple talk compatable by added an HP Conversion card like in 
a III or a IIp.

I know someone out there must have an answer.  I would like to 
try and preserve the postscript that the laserjet has by way of
an Adobe postscript card.

Does anybody have a solution??

Thanks

Dear Mr Hofflin.
In case you don't follow the new, Apple is trying to expand its custome
base.
It wants to sell to consumers- the SEARs crowd. These people are not going
to
be enthusiastic about buying a $2500 machine, even it is a 32 bit 33MHZ 3
slot
68030 speed demon, when they see they can buy a PS/1 type thingy for $1000
or less. Shoot- why do people feel the entire world has to revolve around
their prefence? Apple have not stopped selling fast computers. They have
brought the prices of their fast computers down at a steady rate. If you
don't want one of the el cheapo machines, don't buy one. But why feel you
have to restrict other people's choices?

Way too many Macs on our ethernet (using various Asante cards with
various 3.x drivers, and a few EN/SC's) had been locking up frequently,
with no apparent pattern to software, network location, other net events
(the the Novell file & ccMail server crashing, broadcast storms, lots of
collsions).  Comparing the output of their diagnostic software from
stable and crashing machines, didn't reveal anything. After a few
conversations, Asante's support folks assured me specifically that mixing
driver versions shouldn't be a problem.  Well, after upgrading all the
machines to the latest drivers, things have settled down almost
completely.

Odd, and i can't imagine that the problem was _caused_ by the software,
even though getting everyone on the latest version made the problem go
away.

While I hate to admit that I have System 6 still running on one of my Macs
System 7 CAN be a disadvantahge for some people indeed.  I shelled out
a hefty amount of money to a European company for a client of mine to
automatically receive news data from my system we did not realize that the
s/ware was made only to be run under System 6.  The company (seller)
is currently busy infighting so no one can develop a new solution/upgrade.

So, I have a II fx here and a II si in Pakistan basically sitting running
System 6.0.7 for the pelasure of the comms package :-(

I apologize for posting this incorrect information.  I have since been told

Doubtful -- spin-down-without-parking-head is the hard drive equiv. of
suicide.  It would mean the the heads were going to land on the platter 
(death and destruction etc etc).  All of the modern mechanisms that I am
aware of park heads automatically on spin-down (or power loss for that matter,
the heads are ususally extracted from the platter by the spring force in the
case of a voice-coil mechanism, no current in the coil, nothing to hold the
heads over the platter  -- I am not sure how the stepper motor designs
accomplish it).  In fact, I believe that most mechanisms also park after a 
few seconds of inactivity.

On my powerbook 170, I can HEAR the heads park -- there is a faint click from
the drive as it sleeps, or after a few seconds without disk activity.

I think the "DON'T MOVE IN SLEEP MODE"  warnings are due to the possibility
of waking the hard drive accidently -- not because of unparked heads (which
again, would already have done the damage when the disk stopped spinning).

software. I ran a copy of Disk Manager Mac a friend had to see if I could
find any thing, it reported a disk there but no driver for it. Folks here
thought the only way to regain acess was to reformat. Unfortunately the
only backup is approx a year old, and I just started this job, so that
would mean kissing a few weeks work good bye. Does any one have a
suggestion on restoring the driver w/o nuking the data?

[...]

In a nutshell:  get Larry Pina's book "The Dead Mac Scrolls"!

My SE/30 actually had two problems, both covered in the Pina's book,
and easy to fix.  First there was an intermittent video flicker --
like little lightning bolts running down the center of the screen.
These occured when the machine was hot, and usually crashed the Mac.
Second, sometimes nothing happened when I flipped on the power switch.

The video problem was caused by a loose connection to the picture
tube.  I knew this was a problem because the connector had once
worked itself loose while I was travelling, so I've always been
careful to seat it firmly whenever I work inside the Mac.  What
I didn't realize is that the connector was working it's way off
bit by bit when the Mac got hot, and the wires that run from 
the analog board to the connector also seem to push it loose.

Pina suggested fastening connector to tube with a dab of hot glue.
Result:  no more video intermittents and better vibration resistance!

Second problem:  the SE-SE/30 on-off switch is known to die
occasionally.  I may have exacerbated the problem by soldered
AC fan wires to the leads, but I found that one side of the 
switch failed to make a reliable connection consistently.

Total cost:  $32 book, $7.50 for a glue gun.  The switch is
supposed to cost $3 bucks, but I jumpered it out until I can
find a vendor (Digi-Key doesn't carry that size.)

My original article asked for feedback on "exchange repair" 
outfits who sell discounted replacement parts if you return 
your defective part after fixing your Mac.  I'll pass along
a word of caution:  some companies advertise different prices 
in different magazines and then quote still different prices 
by phone.  This means:  1) there is ample room to dicker,
and 2) caveat emptor, of course.

Both Shreve Systems and Pre-Owned Electronics seemed willing to
adjust prices when I simply mentioned having called the other.

Soft Solutions, Inc. was much more impressive on the phone:

1)  they asked me about the symptoms and made useful suggestions
2)  the offered to fax me some tech info (too bad that my Mac is
    my fax machine ...)
3)  offered to sell me a copy of Pina's book, with so little
    sales pressure that I ended up paying more for a copy the 
    next day at ComputerLand 
4)  the price they offered for the same parts was lower
5)  they called me back later with another suggestion, 
    also helpful, and at their own expense

Soft Solutions (503) 461-1136.  Buy something from them;
I feel guilty!

Thanks, Larry Pina, and thanks to the netters who e-mailed
suggestions.  Now I know how you all got so smart!

>I am thinking of getting the E-Machines T 16-II color monitor, ...

    I am thinking about the E-Machines T16-II, as well as the NEC 5FG
17", for my MacIIci. I was also told that FlexScan T560i from NANAO
U.S.A., a auto-scan 17" Trinitron monitor, is very good
(microprocessor controlled, 120MHz or so video bandwith, etc.)  
    I'd like to have comments and recommendations on monitors, as well
as on the accompanying display card. I want to have resolution up to
1024x768, hopefully 1152x870, with at least 8bit color.  It will be
nice to have 16bit color at some (e.g., 832x624) resolution.  Of
course, 24bit color, if not too expensive, is nice if available.... (I
rarely run my code on my Mac, but like to view resulting image time to
time.)
    I have a few questions of mine, in addition to Rick's;

 * Is T16-II compatible with various non-E-machines display cards,
   e.g., SuperMac 8*24PDQ, Radius PrecisionColor 8x, 24x (expensive...) 
   etc.?

 * Do these monitors work well for word-processing at 1152x870 resolution?
   Are texts clearly legible not to straing eyes ? Are fonts too small
   to read at this resolution ?  How about at 1024x768 resolution ? 
   (I mostly write papers on Mac, with some programming on image/graphics
   type things.)

 * Are the monitors as well as display cards (Futura SX, MX, DoubleColor
