Hi!
As this is my first ever post to a group I hope that you will pardon any
gaffes in Nettiquette. I have listed my setup looking for any input that might
make it operate at it�s best. It is replacing my Imac and so far seems much
more interesting and fun.
Mac IIci
CPU ------------ Daystar 68030 50 mz
FPU ------------ Motorola 68882
CRT ----- MO-401 RGB (Rev A)
Display Card Apple 8/24
Display Card RasterOps 24STV 2.0
HD -------------- Dynatek 170Mb 1.3.0 (Fujitsu M2614S v606)
RAM ------------ Physical 20 Mbs + RamDoubler
CD -------------- Apple 300
ZIP -------------- 100 SCSI
HD/ Spare ---- Quantum Fireball 1280s
Video Expander II and MediaGrabber
With the great help supplied by the Pickle FAQ and it�s lead to the Gamba site
I was able to get what I needed to initialise the Fujitsu (7.3.5 with patch)
and install OS 7.6.1 and also a missing control panel to enable the DayStar Card.
I have since added a Farralon ethernet card and D-Link 4 port router, then
hooked the IIci with an Imac, that�s in another room to cable internet and to
each other with Appleshare. I am using Netscape 4.0.4 for both browsing and
email as I can�t seem to install any version of Eudora. I then had the Dynatek
replaced with a Seagate 1.2 gb ST51080N and added 16 mbs of ram. Added an
Apple Colour Plus 14�. It�s great to be able to run the main window of a
program on one monitor and the menus etc on the other. Next I was given a
snarling ImageWriter II which was fine as I only use black ink and the $6.99
Cdn. price of a tape sure beats the cost of ink for my Imacs Epson 740 and
lastly I wanted Photoshop to use with RasterOps and was able to get it by
buying an Avec Colour 2400 Scanner for $50 Cdn. with Vers. 2.5 LE installed.
Any insights or comments re better browsing or using Eudora. Also suggestions
for importing S-Video or Composite into MediaGrabber would be apprecitated as
I have no experience with it or the Video Expander II.
TIA
Gil
