So to ‘stop that’ they do dumb things to the lower cost model that makes it very undesirable. There were several crippled/hobbled models of Macintosh Apple would have been much better off having never made – or not deliberately sabotaging their hardware capabilities.Īpple got caught up in the same fallacy that afflicts many other businesses, that making a less expensive model will somehow “cannibalize” sales of their more expensive, more featureful models.

While it’s largely an illusion of a working Mac Classic, we still appreciate the aesthetic. While the only part of the computer that’s original is the shell at this point, the project’s creator also built in support for the Apple Desktop Bus through an Arduino so the original Apple mouse and keyboard can be used. The e-ink display is driven by a Raspberry Pi which displays a replica System 7 environment and a set of photos. This one has been retrofitted with an e-ink display which actually gives it some of the same grayscale aesthetic as the original. As such, there were some lower specs for this machine such as the monochrome 512×342 display.

But if you throw out the requirement of using only era-appropriate components, there are some interesting ways to revive older devices with a few touches of modern tech, like this Mac Classic with a unique display. Keeping these systems up and running often requires scavenging parts from other machines which are only becoming harder to find as time goes on. System: 10.14 but I can use 10.11 if needed.As various antique computers age, it becomes increasingly hard to operate them as hardware begins to physically fail. that can use existing printer preset (those must be stored somewhere in the system, I don't know where) and apply it to selected documents.

  • change the cups settings and hit cmd+P in the finder -> doesn't work as I can't get the right margin settings in CUPS + the solution is not a long term one as one would need to tinker with CUPS every time a new batch job with different settings has to be done, eventually loosing the overview of what has changed.

  • Try a python script to create a pdf made of all my needed documents in the right format, so that I could print it and separate the documents manually -> unsucessfull as my python skills are not that great + needs to be done again everytime the situation happens again.
