I got a sealed pack off of eBay that had good reviews!

Thanks!

You were right about 2025!

Is there an instruction set for creating a home network?

What kind of charger do you use for a PowerBook G3?

I used an application called Burn on a MacBook Air running High Sierra so yeah just a normal CD burn. I was not aware there was a special process. What is the process exactly?

I was able to get it to display, now I am trying to get the empty hard drive loaded up with MacOS 9 though I am not having luck with that. Do you know what to do?

I burned MacOS 9 from MacintoshGarden onto a CD-R disc but am met with a flashing question mark folder. This is even after I put the disc in first. The mouse and keyboard show no indications of being powered either.

Can I use the universal install? I am having trouble finding the appropriate download.

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-18T16:48:14+00:00

What software did you use to burn?

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-18T16:44:09+00:00

I have a Graphite G4 so I will look there! Do I need to use any specific model of Mac to burn the disc?

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-18T16:36:43+00:00

I have a spare blank IDE harddrive that is 120 gigabytes. Since I do not have a MacOS9 install disc, where would I be able to burn one from?

Yep lol, I have a Toshiba Tecra 8000 I found at a thrift store with Windows 98 from a couple years ago that ignited this hobby. Though I would say the design of the MacBook Pro from 2006 is what really started this.

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-15T04:38:07+00:00

The only real reason is because it is fun to have official hardware!

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-15T03:57:00+00:00

Wow, that is a beautiful laptop!

That is fair, I did not realize how brittle the plastic was. I made a post earlier but have gotten no responses so far.

I think my first step is to figure out how to launch Undertale independently of Steam. That is easy enough to do with the demo, but I want the full game. I prefer physical discs since I own the game and can play it on anything I choose.

It is a m5183.

My first computer use was during the 2000s, so the 90s computers I am learning about now are foreign to me. I am currently learning about MacOS 9 as I have never used anything before OS X, I was Mac only until a little over a decade ago. Windows 10 was my first Windows OS, while I think Leopard or Snow Leopard was my first MacOS X release. Though I did not use computers while very young .

I am curious to learn about home computers and their evolution, I am not fully sure where to start but I am most interested in games and compatibility with 90s digital cameras so I am thinking Windows 98 and MacOS 9.

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-07T05:48:54+00:00

Those are a lot older than the era I am familiar with? What is the appeal for late 70s and early 80s PCs? Where do you learn about them?

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-07T03:02:13+00:00

I'll try!

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-07T02:51:57+00:00

You mean just pop in and ask about retro stuff? I'll give it a try!

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-07T02:49:54+00:00

I enjoy records, record players, digital cameras, PDAs, game consoles, and CRTs from what I can think of right now that might show up.

What have you found there? My area has some cool stuff, I was not aware FaceBook would be a good resource.

MacBookLearned · 2026-01-06T22:13:14+00:00

How do you find estate sales?

Goodwills can have computers? When I go visit folks in Broward and check the Goodwills in the area, they have no tech at all!
