Hi Next community

I own a working Turbo Cube and I would like to get a dimension board for it. Somewhere from Europe would be nice - a PAL version would be perfect but a US version is fine too.

I am still looking for a PAL version from Europe but also would take a US Version. Preferable from Europe so I don't have to pay customs.

Thanks

Has anyone a OpenStep 4.2 Install CD and floppy for 68K machines?


Just a note that the OpenStep 4.2 Install CD is the same for m68k and i386.  The installation contains tri-fat binaries.  The floppy images (standard 1.44MB diskette images) are available here at the file archive:

hi chris

did you find an openstep CD? here you might find what you're looking for ->

209M   /Volumes/data3/*|Classic Mac stuff/os's/Openstep/4.2/Openstep-4.2-Intel-Developer.iso.zip
225M   /Volumes/data3/*|Classic Mac stuff/os's/Openstep/4.2/Openstep-4.2-Intel-User.iso.zip

even though these ISOs are named "intel" they work just fine on black hardware (just as noted by pitz).

or, asking Google:

How does one tell a PAL ND from a NTSC one? What three letters do the PAL serial numbers start with?

IIRC it is mentioned in the messages log if there's a PAL or NTSC version in the cube. also it's written somewhere on a sticker, or was it the serial, on the board itself.

edit:
I just checked it. both my NeXTdimensions are PAL versions and the serial number starts with "PAL".

I thought I'd heard that, but don't have any PAL NeXTdimensions (all mine are NTSC), so haven't seen one in real life.

I'd quite like to get a PAL one myself, if any were to come up for sale.

so, the serial number of an NTSC ND starts with "NTSC"?

No the NTSC ones are "AAL".

Hi Chris,

Positive and then again, less so.... javascript:emoticon(':roll:')

Just joined a couple of days ago... and after reading a bunch of posts I came across yours here.

I have a bunch of NeXT equipment stashed away, haven't fiddled with it for more than 4 years, so I don't know for sure about the working condition at this time.

But.... among this I do have a Cube with a Dimension board, PAL version! As said, I have no idea at present whether it's working or not...

I will start putting all the stuff together, to check up on the working condition of things, they should all work, as I did take care to store it carefully.

Unfortunately I will not have time to dig into this until we hit mid January, so I don't expect to be able to update you with the result until later.

No promises, but maybe I will have some positive news for you in February...

Cheers,
Michael
