Nanosaur 2 Intro Gamplay on iBook G4

Friday, November 6th, 2009

This is the Nanosaur 2 game that was bundled with my late 2004 Ibook G4 1.2Ghz.

Used the Mini VGA Video out via an RCA/S-Video adapter plugged to an Easycap Video Capture USB adapter which was connected to my iMac. I had to run Windows in order to use the Easycap DC60 adapter. The RCA/S-Video adapter for my iBook outputs $h!**y video quality and I still need to work out the settings. But i couldn’t get better than this from the iBook.

Stay tuned as I will upload gameplay of PS1, PS2, and possibly Sega Genesis games in the future.

Tech: Macintosh G4 Upgrade (FF-Class)

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

http://www.Alfred.TV
READ ME FIRST: I put in a significant amount of resources upgrading a legacy Macintosh G4 System to make it an “FF-Class” G4 system.

A note to all – be careful how much money you invest into old, legacy system. Sometimes it is just not worth it. I do collect computers, and I like to extend their life and their usefulness.

I had posted this video as a response to David, TheCreativeOne. This is how we started our dialogue, which evolved to a good friendship. Shout out to you, David! You can visit his YouTube page at www.youtube.com/thecreativeone

Beige G3 Power Mac running OS X 10.5 Leopard!

Monday, October 12th, 2009

(make sure “HQ” (high quality) beneath the video is selected (highlighted in red) for best results)

For many months after the release of Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, everyone thought that installing it on any Mac older than a G4 Sawtooth (the first AGP tower, still far below Apple’s official specification of an 867 MHz G4) was impossible. But finally, it has been done, and here you can see a Beige Power Macintosh G3 booting a fresh installation of Leopard (the retail build of course) for the first time. This is a Mac that originally came with Mac OS 8.0 back in 1997 (mine’s a late ‘98 model, from when the Pentium III was yet to be launched and Windows 98 had just come on the scene…) and Apple dropped OS support after 10.2.8 Jaguar for these OldWorld Macs without built-in USB or FireWire, but today we prove that the Beige G3 still has many many years of life ahead of it as it runs today’s latest and greatest, Mac OS X Leopard. As Apple say, “Add a new Mac to your Mac” with Leopard! :-) It actually runs pretty well for such an old machine too!

(note that if you want to to this with your own Beige G3 you will need a G4 upgrade CPU for it, as Leopard was compiled by Apple without G3 support to try and cut off these awesome old machines and make Leopard an impossibility on them)

Specs:

Sonnet Encore 1 GHz G4 processor
768 MB Ram
ATI Radeon Mac Edition 32 MB graphics card
160 GB 7,200 RPM hard drive
DVD-RW drive
USB card
100baseT ethernet card
Apple Studio Display 15″ LCD screen
Apple Keyboard and Apple Pro Mouse (USB)
