Hi,
I have a simple question ... where can I get a (floppy) cable for an
Apple II PDS Slot card, or, if that is not possible, is there a place
which describe that cable / have a wire diagram for it ?
Btw. ... I didn't found any appropriate Mac 68K newsgroup, is such a
newsgroup not existing (a la comp.sys.mac68k or comp.sys.oldmacs or
similar) ?
The actual Macintosh newsgroups were for the original Macs when they
came out, obviously now superceded by more recent hardware. I seem to
recall that circa 1996 when I first got full access to Usenet and the
internet, the faqs did still cover the 68000 Macs.
There are various websites that cover the older Macs well. Not just
for colelctors, but they have been around long enough so the 68000 Macs
were "not quite the latest" and covered things about using them more
currently.
"The Low End Mac" comes to mind, I certainly visited it quite a bit
when I was using an older Mac. There's at least one other, but I can't
think of the name.
Though don't necessarily cover the Apple II aspect well.
