![]() As you can see, it was configured for internal video, but the desktop mode didn't seem to gel with the OrangePC card. Use Disk Copy to create those via the 'Make Floppy Disk.' The first warning, as below, was that my Video mode was unsupported. It seems that you need to use real floppy disks instead of images. Thanks to all my partitions I could easily allocate the space on one to a virtual HDD file. Running the application gave a very simple configuration interface. I scoured the internet and found the drivers on the Wayback Machine. This card is came equipped with a genuine Intel 486 DX4-100 CPU and 32mb of RAM. I haven't checked the rest of the doc for valid information on my scenario (I don't have a Houdini card), but I'll read it at a later date when I have Win95B+Plus! It seems that this card was worth over USD$2500 back in the day. Not to be discouraged, I took the gamble and bid anyway. But it was through the global shipping program. I usually don't bother begging, as you usually get a flat-out 'no' in response, but I asked the seller if they'd ship to Australia.Īs luck would have it, they did. Unfortunately, this item was listed as shipping to the US only. Orange Micro: OrangePC 290 eBay alerts are all well-and-good when the sellers list their items correctly. The conclusion? These things are in demand! This model happened to be a Cyrix 5x86 SL50 and was a little below-spec anyway, so I was happy to sit tight for something gutsier. That way, just like in a real auction, the final bidder with the most money actually wins rather than the one with the lowest latency. This kind of crappy bidding brings up a good point: I like how Yahoo Auctions Japan actually extends the auction in the last five minutes, for five minutes, if someone places a bid. Only the bidder ever knows with eBay, the seller only ever gets to see the final auction price and any bids below that. I actually wonder what the final bidder put down as a max bid. Sounds like I'm an eBay newbie but, on the contrary, I just wasn't expecting the price to go that high. I was in the lead until the last second when the price nearly doubled to USD126. (Absolute Goldmine!).įirst attempt at acquiring one I happened across an Orange Micro PC Coprocessor Card (dated prior to the OrangePC 290) with a Cyrix 5x86 on eBay. ![]() I therefore began the hunt to find a Nubus DOS Card. Researching the cards lead me to believe that the majority would fit into the the, but I wanted to keep my in there. To re-live all this, I wanted to find a DOS Card for the Quadra 950. It all makes sense now why the DOS side kept running when switching and why it all ran so well the DOS card created a whole PC running independently of the host Macintosh. I had always been impressed that the DOS side worked just as well as the Mac side and switching was seamless. We were either programming Hypercard Stacks or switching to the DOS environment and fragging eachother in Doom II.
