| | Apple Macintosh |
| | Macintosh, also known informally as Mac, is a family of personal computers manufactured by Apple Computer, Inc. of Cupertino, California, USA. | | | It was the first computer to popularize the graphical user interface (GUI, pronounced "gooey"), at that time a revolutionary development in desktop computing. | | | Existing Macintosh software that had been written for the 68000 series CPUs -- including some large sections of the Mac OS -- were made to run with a software emulator. |

| | Quadra 700 Info |
| | Michael Dawe is a regular contributor to the QuadList which is an excellent information resource for all Macintosh computers equipped with some version of the 68040 processor chip. | | | All 3 share the same internal structure concerning the floppy drive in a Quadra 700 and these instructions could also be applied to the IIcx and IIci models. | | | Accessing the memory is an easier task in a Macintosh IIcx or IIci than the 700. |

| | Two computers that were from the LC family of computers were the Quadra 605 and the Quadra 630. | | | Later the brother of Quadra was born: Centris, which were desktop computers instead of the tower-design; though the Centris 610 was so nimble that a heavy beast of a monitor would surely slay the computer. | | | Audio - All Quadra computers have mono audio input. |

| | Macintosh core software, on the other hand, was written in 68000 assembly language. | | | The audience is anyone who has an interest in innovative computing technology, and wants to learn a little about Apple Computer's brief foray into this area via the Lisa computer. | | | This paper hopes to show why the Lisa was significant in its time, and how some of what was called "Lisa Technology" is slowly migrating to other computer systems, notably the Apple Macintosh computer series. |

| | Quadra 700 & 900 On-Board Video Capabilities |
| | However, note that 512K of VRAM is the minimum configuration for the Quadra 700 whereas it is 1MB of VRAM for the Quadra 900 (this is the amount of VRAM soldered on the motherboard). | | | And by the way, I am the designer of the video hardware for both Mac Quadras, so this information is accurate. | | | In any design there are a number of tradeoffs to be made, and this is certainly true for the frame buffer in the Mac Quadra machines. |

| | Additionally, there are external SCSI hard drives attached to the Quadra and Power Mac of 140 and 150 MB, respectively, primarily for the storage of user files, and internal CD-ROM drives on the Quadra and the PowerMac. | | | For general instructions, it would do you well to read the Macintosh manuals, but quickly, and specifically, here is a summary of the basic motions. | | | For general information about Apple Computer and Macintoshes, please refer to Apple's World Wide Web pages, at http://www.apple.com. |

| | Apple Macintosh Quadra 650 User's Log |
| | I created a 2 MB RAM disk on the Quadra and set Netscape prefs to use it exclusively for cache files (to reduce the likelihood of corrupt cache files on the hard drive, which seemed to have been the original problem leading to this overhaul in the first place). | | | For example, I use Netscape Navigator 4.0.6 for a browser instead of AOL 4.x's bundled MSIE 4.x on the Quadra, while on the iMac I must use the bundled MSIE with AOL 4.x (since I've not had the opportunity to set up a different browser there). | | | If companies like Microsoft consistently refuse to fix things like file uploading bugs in the Mac version of their browser (and Netscape seems to be on its deathbed browser-wise), then Apple had better try doing their own browser, pronto, to try to keep the Mac in the running regarding web-authoring. |
