Right now it looks like there are only 2 patrons if you search by "position" in the member list. I think if the call for patrons were a bit more prominent you may see more activity.

Hi All,

I recently moved my hobby Mac mini G4 restoration business, os9.shop, from Vermont to Pennsylvania (due to obviously my own moving from VT to PA). During the last couple of months while the boxes of supplies were in transition I had limited inventory.

Anyway, things are back up now in Pennsylvania and that will mean I can ship domestic orders (US) more quickly since I am now more centrally located. If you're interested in an upgraded Mac mini G4 with SSD and the Mac OS 9 Lives remix of OS 9 pre-installed you can use promo code 10OFF125 to get $10 off at checkout on a 1.25 GHz mini at https://os9.shop

Thanks to this community that has been so supportive of this hobby business,
David

Oh no! I'll fix that right away! Tonight I'll watch 12 episodes of Star Trek. re

not interested in the Enterprise? i am borderline offended

My friend, that is not a philological reconstruction but simply a juxtaposition of the two “intentions” understood as “retro-futuristic” in my project (I am not interested in the details of the enterprise at all; I could have used anything else) 

Hi Darth Vader, I have two PowerBook laptops, 1.5GHz and 1.6GHz, that use a 9700 graphics card. I managed to boot them into OS9 and it's fantastic. The only problem is that the card sees it as if it were two monitors connected, and the resolution is 256 colors. I've tried many ATI drivers, but the situation remains the same. Could you (or someone) create an NDRV for this card? I'm not interested in 3D acceleration, but at 256 colors, some programs are unwatchable. If I could see thousands of colors, I'd be very happy. Or if there's already a working driver out there, is there a link? Let me know, thanks.

Welcome to Mac OS 9 Lives, makott! Italy is a beautiful country  that I've visited many times. Glad you found your way here

your attachment shows a Macintosh Classic (1990-1992) and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 from Star Trek: The Original Series (1966–1969) whereas it should show the U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) from Star Trek: The Next Generation (TNG) to be period correct.
