Hardware Notes
- New Power Macs
- The lab now has 5 PCI based machines installed. These are Power PC's with
a new kind of bus, so compatibility is unclear. Analyzer * does not run
well on them unless modern memory manager is turned off. There are likely
other compatibility issues we haven't yet identified. So watch out for them,
and let us know what you discover.
- Two Machines on a Table
- Several tables now have two machines on them. In most cases, only the
newer
machine is on the network. One cannot directly print from machines which
are off the network.
- Dos Compatible
- The machine "Flow" is a Dos compatible 6100. The hot key command-return
shifts to the Intel chip which is usually also running. There is a Macintosh
control panel which can be used to customize the behavior of the Intel board.
- Scanner Warning
- The scanner warns against being turned on while the commputer is attached to
it is running. So please under all circumstances respect this warning.
