Subject: Caddyless CD-ROM Drives for the Mac?
Date: 9 Nov 92 19:55:47 GMT
Organization: UCLA, Computer Science Department

Does anyone know of any CD-ROM drives (preferably the newer, faster
models that support multi-session Photo CD) that don't require
those stupid disk caddies?  I'd like something with a sliding drawer
or one like the in-dash audio players - that slurps it in
automatically.

For that matter, why are they so ubiquitous in the data world and
so conspicuously absent from the audio world.  I can't believe that it's
to protect the disk - they get as much (or more) wear from being 
loaded into the caddies, I would think.

Thanks-
  Tom

Ah, but who can afford to give up an extra 640K with only 5M on the machine,

Hello there

I've got a SE30 and I have latetly seen ads for a Radius Pivot LE monitor
that does not need a video card with a SE30. 

Has anyone a idea what it is worth, what does LE stand for, has anyone had
trouble or whatever with it...

Thanks a lot.

You could put in 10 ns DRAMs and it still wouldn't make one bit of
difference.  The speed printed on a DRAM is it's maximum rated speed
not necessarily the speed it will be running at.  The circuitry that
a DRAM is plugged into determines the speed that it actually runs
at.  You Mac IIvx clocks it DRAM to run at 100 ns.

70 ns DRAM will be happy run at 100 ns.  In fact, they're run cooler
and maybe last longer than if you run them at 70 ns.

The RS6000 was here beginning of last year. Pentium isn't here yet, and
won't be close to an RS6K when it arrives. Alpha isn't here yet. R4000 is
here but all benchmarks I've seen put it at slower than an RS6K machine.
Sure Motorola could design a new faster chip. Why waste another two years.

Come, on, use some sense.

Apple has released a rom upgrade for the IIf/g printers for network,  
spooler and scsi problems. It requires the printer drivers released with  
7.1 and is not included with new production units. All printers exhibiting  
these problems will require the upgrade. Contact your local dealer for  
details.

then to the printer.

I know that I kept it around somewhere but have

Sorry if this has been discussed before, I just got my HDI-30 and am starting
to connect my PB100 to my ci, so I've missed all those articles.

I have a question about the PB100 SCSI Disk Mode.  The manual said I have
to put a terminator between the SCSI cable and the HDI-30 cable, but my
dealer told me that I don't need a terminator there.  They even showed me
one PB100 connected to a Desktop Mac without the terminator.  Their reason
is that the PB100 is internally terminated.

Any idea?

I'm thinking of getting the Apple 16" monitor for my IIci.  Do I need a
color video card for this, or is the built-in video adequate?

Also, are there some other monitors in the same 16-17" range that are a
better buy?  Do any of these monitors require special software?  I once had
a Radius full-page display that required its own init.  I found this
inconvenient because Radius was always late in upgrading the inits for Apple
system upgrades.  It was particularly inconvenient because I was in living
in Japan at that time.

In case you don't already know, the T16II will not work in multiple
resolutions with the Quadra 700 unless you buy the E-machines interface
 board.  I almost made that mistake.  I bought the Apple 16 with my
 Quadra 700 and am quite pleased with it although I'll admit I would like

Maybe I'm stupid, by why not put both a 68k-based processor and the

68k if you integrated the two well enough.  There are enough library
calls for the Power PC to service that the speed would be there.  Not
to mention *possible* benefit from concerency.  The "lower-end" 68k's
don't really cost that much.

The reason why the DuoDock won't allow you to use the LCD
screen is that you have to close the Duo's clamshell in order
to insert it into the DuoDock.  Since the MiniDock attaches
to the back of the Duo, you can use both an external monitor

This is essentially a followup to my previous post about two
monitors.  The problem seems to be this card I have in some
way.  My other MAC IIcx has a "Macintosh Display Card 630-...",
it works fine with System 7.0 and corresponding APPLE 13" color display.
I have System 7.0.1 installed (with tuneup disk installed) on the other
MAC IIcx and a "820-0600-A Macintosh Display Card 670-" card with the
same kind of APPLE color monitor (13" RGB).  The latter refuses to
work, no display on bootup but system does boot as if it thinks everything
is okay (can tell from action of hard disk).  I swapped out the newer card
(the 670) to the other MAC and it didn't work their either.  The ROM on
this board says "341-0868 (C) APPLE COMPUTER INC. 1986-1991 ALL
RIGHTS RESERVED W5". The board in question is also (C) 1990/91 (newer than
the other board I have (630) that does work.

Taligent is a software only company. It is "independent" of Apple (and 
IBM). In order to succeed, the Taligent OS needs to run on more platforms 
than just the PowerPC. Not only do I expect their OS to run on the very 
first PowerPC but on the RS6000 and 680[34]0 Macs as well. I wouldn't be 
surprised to see a port for 80[345]86 PCs. I would be surprised if the OS 
were not eventually ported to the Alpha and SPARC architectures as well.

I have no inside knowledge of Taligent's marketing strategy -- but I would 
be happy to receive any  :-)
