Still waiting for a magical of <in the past decade> vintage to drop into my lap with a selection of versions that can be installed and a compiler license that can be used on at least one of them at a time.

On August 28, 2009, Apple unveiled Mac OS X v10.6, a bittersweet moment in tech history.

It marked the end of an era, as it was the first Mac OS to bid farewell to PowerPC processors and AppleTalk.

While progress in technology is inevitable, it often means leaving behind the past.

The PowerPC processors and AppleTalk may have become obsolete, but their memory lives on in the nostalgia of those who experienced the Mac's earlier days.

I botched a patch file (used -b and copy paste instead of directly copying the patch file over) and my penalty is 7 hours lost.

Pouca gente sabe, mas os primeiros números da Magazine Brasil foram diagramados em um (um irmão do iMac para o mercado educacional) como este, com um G4 rodando a 700 MHz.

Originalmente usávamos o QuarkXpress, mas logo na terceira ou quarta edição migramos pro InDesign, que tornou tudo MUITO mais fácil.

I don't have a lot of experience with MO drives.
But I didn't expect this to have its own fan!

One of the additions to my collection I never got around to checking out.
Will it boot?

@manawyrm THIS is why I HATE mezzanine Connectors.

Why couldn't they choose something like a socket instead?

Or maybe some but with different pinout or those sockets that were used in their "Pizzabox-Style" Cases...

Had anyone been able to successfully install 9.2.2 on a 7100-class system? I’m on 9.1 but there were a bunch of good performance improvements in 9.2.2 that I’d love to get on my system. I’ve tried OS9Helper but that hasn’t worked. Was thinking I’d use MachID to change the gestalt value to another 601 system to try that but wanted to see if anyone else had cracked the code

Hoy en su momento Ghost in the Shell del día.

entre las fotos viejas de por ahí de 2007 me encuentro con la iBook con el mismo wallpaper de toda la vida.

Mira @bacteriano me tuve que ir a buscar la foto de mi punto más más mac'ero en la vida.

La iMac G5 de 20" con la iBook G3 de 12".

Nunca tomé fotos de la Mac Mini G4 porque pues, estaba medio pinche y tenía un monitor LG de 19 pulgadas también pinchón.

Luego de eso me regresé a Windows con la llegada de Windows 7.

Is someone still making builds of MPD around?
There's one on tigerbrew for 0.19 (github.com/mistydemeo/tigerbre) but that's a bit old and idk if it actually works 🤔

🍏 MacOS 9.0.4 in your Web browser! 👀

PowerPC emulation with some games and utilities
emulate-in-browser.macintoshre

I don't remember how I arrived at this macintoshrepository.org Web site today, but I had fun playing with this online emulator for a little while. It's a little slow, but I still enjoyed it. Give it a try ✌ 😁

I haven't used my old Macs in a long time.
