Re: [q] Sonnet QuadDoubler
Yes it makes a tremendous difference. I use my Quadra 900 (with QuadDoubler) for everything at my second home. Chat, email, light web browsing, word processing, etc... it is a busy bee indeed A Quadra 800 is fine for email. Not too great for web browsing. Yes you can connect it to your home network (ethernet). You cannot use a QuadDoubler in a Quadra 800.

However I still use mine for web browsing when I'm at my secondary home. I do not use the latest browser that will work, however. I use good old Internet Explorer 2.0 It runs really fast on Quadras (!!!) and doesnt barrage you with annoying errors like Netscape. Internet Explorer 2.0 is pretty stable. The one reason why most people would never consider using it is it displays web pages terribly (it was written in 1996 after all). BUT it is good enough to read the information and see the graphics on web pages. Just not good enough to arrange everything right. If this is satisfactory to you, then I suggest Internet Explorer 2.0. It also runs on system 7.1.x which I like because it is faster booting than 7.1 and up. I like to keep in mind that I'm using a Quadra for gods sakes and I don't really need to use all the snazziest latest stuff on that computer. I have a G4 for that. -- Quadlist is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

[q] A Major QuickTime Question
Quicktime has been around longer than AV Macs. So how, in the days before the Quadra 840av, how in gods name did they import video into Macs to make those early QuickTime movies? I searched for like nubus cards, scsi boxes, anything that would be able to import video, but I'm not turning anything up. How can I import video to my Quadra 900 or 800 from my standard analog camera? There has to be a way. I really want to do this just for fun, so any pointers would be much appreciated.

[q] A Long Time...
It's been a very very long time since I stopped reading this list. However I'm back now with the acquisition of a Quadra 900 with the Sonnet QuadDoubler (YAY!) Anyway I'm using IE 2 for web browsing on it which is great (for me). No error messages, kind of fast, and displays pages good enough for me to see the information (which means utterly terribly, but not unreadable) and that is just the way I like it. Anyway, I would prefer to use Netscape 2, which seems to download stuff faster on my dial up connection. The problem with Netscape (all versions) is that it barrages me with dozens of java and other assorted error messages at nearly every page load, sometimes so much that it crashes. Can't I shut these stupid things off somehow? At most, I'll upgrade to Netscape 3 if this will let me browse error message free. I don't care about every single piece of code that Netscape doesn't understand, I realize that the browser is very old. I just want it to work more like IE 2 in that it keeps it a secret... BTW I'm running OS 7.1 and not willing to upgrade that either. Thanks in advance! -- Quadlist is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
