I don't know anything about "cleaning" SIMMs but I do know that you can get
Peace of Mind to do a very thorough job of testing your SIMMs this determing
whether this is the cause of your problem.  Peace of Mind can be configured
to test your memory overnight using several different testing procedures.
Unlike other diagnostics, Peace of Mind actually tests every bit of memory
in your machine, even the memory used by the System.  If Peace of Mind finds
an error, it will report which SIMM (bank and number) and even which bits and
bytes are affected.  This makes zeroing in on the problem much easier.

Peace of Mind also tests all the other major harware components of the Mac,
along with selected peripherals (SCSI Disks etc).  It has both an easy to use
icon interface, and a sophisticated hierarchical interface reminiscent of the
System 7.0 finder.  It costs $99 US (until Dec 31st 1992) and is available 
directly from Polybus at 800-695-4239.  It runs on everything from a Mac Plus
through the new machines.

I will be happy to give you any other information you would like.  I work
for Polybus.

No, I wouldn't get the Soft Solutions kit.

The most likely reason for failure is a cold solder joint.  If that's the  
problem, you can fix it yourself for free, assuming you have a soldering iron  
and the case opening tools.

A review last year didn't find any performance improvement going to a 128K 
cache over a 64K; I think the 64K was marginally better than the 32K.  No 
compatibility problems were found.  Price was not particularly related to 
performance; some of it is due to brand name recognizability.  The only thing 
you might look for to distinguish cards is the software (i.e., is there a 
control panel, so you can turn the cache off, if you want), but this isn't too 
important for most people, because why would you want to turn it off?

Sorry, the Quadras aren't and never were SCSI-2 machines.  This piece of 
mis-information keeps popping up from time to time.  The SCSI hardware 
controller used (53C96) is a SCSI-2 controller, but the standard SCSI-2 
connector is not used.  More importantly, however, the Apple SCSI Manager 
does not provide support for SCSI-2.

 1) I assume you mean a 230 or 210.
 2) There's only one slot, so configurations are just a function of
    a single chip and the 4 megs fixed in the motherboard.
 3) No simms come in the 4 meg config, the 4 megs are the memory
    soldered onto the motherboard, the slot is empty.

Hi,

I have just bought an LCII 4/80 that I'm going to use for developing
a multi-media HyperCard application for teaching pronunciation of
english to foreign language learners. I want to use animation and
QuickTime. Do I need more memory, or would I be better off buying
some video-RAM instead? The LCII is not the worlds fastest machine,
but it suffice for most purposes. With a 16-bit bus would more RAM
help speed up animation and QuickTime noticeably?

You have it backwards.  The 1304S is a multisync (auto-synchronous) 
monitor, while the 1320 is a fixed-horizontal-frequency monitor for 
standard VGA signals.  The 1320 is thus cheaper (approx. $340+ vs. $560+ 
for the 1304S).  As far as I know, the 1320 will work only with those Macs 
that can output a VGA signal (e.g., LC, LC II, Quadras) while the 1304S 
will work with any Mac's built-in video, assuming you have the proper 
adaptor.  The 1304S also supports multiple resolutions, if you have the 
right video hardware and software.  For example, I'm using a 1304S with 
an E-Machines Futura SX video card on my IIci, and I can switch on-the-fly 
from 640x480 to 832x624.

I have a friend who worked at Motorola in the 680x0 fab labs, and he
told that all chips that are in the same family (ie, not crossing
technology boundaries like CMOS vs regular logic) come from the same
design, the same production runs, etc.  The only difference between
chips of different speeds is that the ones they sell as faster
actually test out at faster speeds.  So, they are the same chip,
except in the speed they maxed at and the extent of their testing.
The faster ones are tested much more, thus the higher cost.  (he also
told me that they have found some 030's that tested out at more than
65Mhz.  They hung on to those to try to figure out what happened to
them and how they could reproduce it. :)

So the fact that it is declared as a certain speed chip indicates that
Motorola believes it is not suitable for higher speeds, or rather that
it is not suitable for the next higher speed class.

Apple has done studies showing that the vast majority of Mac programs
spend a large part of their execution time in System routines, I
forget the % but I think it was ~50%.  Guess what, you don't have to
emulate any system software.  Any time spent in the system software
will run at full speed on a PowerPC in 68k emulation mode.  Your
current software is not going to be junk, most of it will work at
least as fast as your current machine.  And native PowerPC code will
run many times faster.

I've got a Mac II w/ an 800 K floppy drive.  I also have a 44 MB removable hard-drive.
(Yes I also have a non-removable hard-disk, but that's not relevant to my question:)

I'm considering buying a SuperDrive upgrade, but I'm wondering if I should get a
21 MB floptical drive instead.  My main motivation for getting a new drive is to be
able to dump files onto a DOS disk from my SparcStation at work, bring it home and
load it directly.  (I've done this using someone else's Mac that I no longer have
access to.)  Thus I would be able to avoid using a modem and tying up my phone for
hours.

Mail order houses list the Applied Engineering 1.44 MB drives (similar to SuperDrive
I assume) somewhere in the $200-$300 range.  The floptical drives, which can read/write
1.44 MB floppies, are about $200 more, and the disks are considerably more expensive.

Any thoughts/recommendations/experience?

Thanks,

I seem to be having a little problem with my active matrix display.  Any

look like extensions of the scroll-bars, but they go all the way down
to the bottom of the screen.  Its difficult to explain, but imagine it
this way:  you have a square, and you draw dotted lines from the lower right
and left hand corners down to the bottom of the page...thats what it looks
like.  Im not sure if I just noticed it, or if it is a new problem, but
if anyone out there has a 180 and can either confirm or deny said lines'
existence, it would be of a great help.  Once again, if you are confused,

AGAIN! You mixed up 1304 with 1320! 1304 is a higher and newer model than 1320.
1320 is VGA 31.5kHz only. 1304 is multisync up to 60+kHz non-interlace!

Mr. Seymour. This is the fourth time you made factual mistakes. And 2nd
time on the same thing: 1304 and 1320. Please check your facts next time!
1304 is also much more expensive thatn 1320. I hope this is not personal,
but I just can't stand it since he was doing a disservice too many times.

Hopefully not a flame, just to clear up facts stuff.

There has apparently been a problem with mouseup events from the Malaysian
mice getting missed. I have experienced this occasionally and someone has been
collecting data on this problem.
