Bruce, you need a generic hard drive formatting software like Formatter1,
Drive7
or FWB Hard Drive Toolkit personal edition. The one supplied by Apple won't
recognize non-Apple brand hard drives.

You can leave the drive as is as internally terminated if there is a row of
three terminating resistors on it. I think you can assign a SCSI address to
the drive via software. Not all the HD software can do it though.

The easier way may be is to buy an external drive kit. I got mine for $80.00
(they actually range from $90-200) and is the one MacDirect and many are
using.
Two 50-pin SCSI connectors, internal or external termination, push-putton SCSI
address, universal power supply, additional power outlets, fuse, etc.

	My corporate experience with Mac II family is that leave them on unless
you know there is a thunderstorm coming.  Since we are in Florida, you would think that would be quite often, but in years of use (5+), I have had no baked
Macs.  I highly recommend a screen saver, i.e., After Dark, etc.

	I've been told that my battery is reaching the "replace me" stage
of its life (in my SE).  I want to know if its symptoms are consistent
with what other netters have noted:

	1) Occasionally the SE beeps once, sometimes twice, just before it
boots from the hard drive.

	2) Occasionally (maybe once every 7-28 days) it won't boot from the
hard drive; rather, it displays the floppy icon.  Inserting a disk with
a system will cause the SE to boot from the floopy; restarting will work fine.
OR, inserting a disk WITHOUT a system will cause the SE to eject it (as usual)
and THEN to boot from the hard drive.

	Note that once the machine is running all successive restarts or
shutdown-restarts (without shutting off the machine) will result in a
successful boot from the hard drive.

	I haven't noted any other "symptoms"; what else should I be looking
for?  And, again, are these "symptoms" I'm seeing consistent with a dying
battery?

	Thanks,

	Jim

I have the Digital Daystar ComboCache Card.  It works fine and speeds up  
the CPU maybe 25%.  I have found no compatability problems.  My only  
complaint is that it is a little pricey for what you get.  Logica sells a  
Dualport board with FPU and 64K of cache for less.  I have seen it is the

I *think* this was discussed "to death" a long time ago... and it was traced
to being a hardware problem with the button.  This same button is used in
"black-balled" mouse (Made in Tiawan?) and the "late-model" grey-ball mouse
(made in Malaysia)... both mice have a "family number" of G5431.  The old
"Made in USA" grey-ball mouse never (to my knowledge) exhibited this problem.

My Classic's "black ball" occasionally has the problem, and when I took my
mouse to work and plugged it onto an old 6.0.5 SE, the problem followed right
along.  The SE has never exhibited this before or since (I did this a year
or so ago).  This "firms up" the belief that *at least in my case* it IS a
hardware problem.

It survived the 6.0.7 - 7.0.1 transition on my machine also, BTW.

-- Opinion begins here --

I personally also believe that all "black ball" mice should be "black balled"
because the ball is too light to track properly... this also carries over to
Logitech mice on IBMs (same cheap mechanism).

	Well, I don't know.  I think the prices for the 040 machines 
seems a little high.  The Q800 8/230 for $4700?  Is it worth it?  
Does the price come with monitor, Keyboards, and Mouse?  Seriously
folks 040 running at 33/MHZ is barely enough to run mathamatical 
intensive applications.  I dunno, I guess I am a little dissappointed 
about they way Apple not care about people who like to use their 
machines for real scientific applications.  For that amount of money, I
can probably get a low end SUN sparc station or event a INTEL 586 bases
machine, which will blow the Q machines to oblivions as far as Raw 
computational power is concerned.  Oh Well, I'll put my credit card 
back into my wallet and wait. 

	But the low end machines does sound reasonable though, I think 
for an average user, these machines may be more than adequate.

The apples 80MB drive is also found in the CX and CI which are made to be run 
either Horizontel or Vertical, therefore I wouldn't think that you would need 
to reformat to change the orientation of your drive. To be safe, backup the 
disk, and if the disk does start to act up you can reformat it then.  Mats is 
correct that the Mac IIfx is not designed to stand on its side, like the Mac 
II, and IIx, the machine is unstable in this configuration and it blocks the 
side cooling vents. However, there are support stands sold to fix these 
problems, they keep the machine off the floor or desk (keeps vents clear), 
and give it a wider more stable platform to sit on.  They also sell extension 
cables for the monitors and keyboard to allow placement under desks etc. I 
cannot, of course, endorse any of these products, but I'm not aware of a MAC 
II that has had problems while using them, my experience base is with three 
machines.

With 8MB of RAM, the 600 can do 600dpi OR 300dpi/fineprint/photograde.
Having done that the 630 has Ethernet and SCSI ports over the 600.

I played with some GIFs today with GIFconverter and Photoshop. I

300/fineprint/photograde.

The UC Irvine store has the 630 for 2399, the 4M for 1949 (if memory
serves). I haven't seen the HP, but it has 600dpi/RET, where the 
630 can "only" do 600dpi. Don't know about 300/fineprint. In any case,
I haven't had the chance to play with a 4M.

One of my coworkers has an SE/30 and would like to add an external

performance would stink.

2) A normal video card and SCSI ethernet.  I'm not sure what ethernet
performance would be like.  Does anyone have experience with one of
these SCSI ethernet adapters?

3) A new card from Mobius called DisplayNet or some such thing.  It
does both ethernet and video.  Has anyone used one of these?  Has
any one had any good or bad experiences with Mobius they'd like

Any advice would be appreciated...

whether or not the models should have a good desk-life for NEW

Oh yeah, my situation:
My wife and I are currently sharing a Mac SE....and looking to

Neither of us, as grad students, is particularly rich, so
whatever purchase we make will have to last a good long time in
terms of software support.

We'd both appreciate any help anyone can offer.

Hi,

As the title says, I am interested in people's opinions about
Bernoulli removable hard drives. I heard that HDI has a deal for $500
which includes a drive and two 90 meg cardridges. Is this a good deal?

Any kind of info is appreciated. Please send email.

My Emachines Z21 IQ software won't run with System 7.  Emachines
told me I could get the latest software from AppleLink.  Cna
anyone tell me how to access AppleLink (from the Internet) or
can a fellow E-machines monitor owner send me the software?

Thanks,
