Help keep Jag's House a free site. With the huge number of new

Here's everything you need to get that ole

Yes, Virginia, you CAN get an old black and
white Mac on the web. This Doc Maker application gives you all the
juicy details. Mentioned in Mac Addict and MacUser magazines. Over
20,000 downloads so far.
Wanna Be
Text Only Web Browser - great little
(490k!) browser for PowerMacs and 68k Macs. Needs 7.1 and the Drag
Manager and Thread Manager or 7.5 or up to run. PPC Version uses 2.2
megs.
NOTE: This is broken up into three 800k
disc images. You'll need Apple's Disc Copy (comes with every Mac
OS since 7.5 or so)
to mount the images, then drag the contents of the images to 800k
floppies, then run the installer just as you would any other
software. This will only install on all 68k Macs running system
7.x with 4 megs of ram or more.

Visiting tonight on a $5 se/30 with a
free modem (cable was2$!) all thanks to JAG. Aside from redraws, with
a 33.6 usr, jag's7.5 advice and downloads, list of modem jumpers,
jags MacPPPsetup, netscape 2, fetch (it works!) I could do it. the
big sticklerwas getting the cable for the modem. This has been quite
a fun side project, and people like Jag have made it much easier,
really enjoyable as opposed to hair pulling aggravating sleep losing
endeavors.
thanks again,
It's a really great site (looks good in
b&w too, no mean feat)
Hello Jag, thank you for the great
website on classic Macs.
I am emailing you via lynx via zterm via
my 4 meg Mac Plus with an external floppy. (and a hayes 9600 modem!).
I booted 6.0.3 on one floppy, and am running zterm from the other. I
am going to give this machine to my aunt so she can have an email
machine. Thanx,
Trey
P.S. lynx is really cool to
use!
jag,
just a note of thanks. i'm emailing you
from my B&W Mac Classic 4/40 running sys 6.0.7. I downloaded your
getting on the web pack signed up for a free isp provider with free
POP mail account (just a recent thing here in New Zealand) and
brought a 56K global village modem from work for a very decent price.
your turorials were very helpful and i was up and FTPing and sending
email in no time.
Your website is an absolute credit to you
and the mac community, keep it up.
Cheers
Hamish
PS I may yet upgrade to sys 7.0.1 and get
this puppy on the web but the novelty of using sys 6 hasn't worn off
yet!?!

Jag:
Great site. Thanks to all the links and
resources I've got my 1 meg Mac Plus doing email, ftp and telnet.
I've got it booting off the built-in floppy with 6.0.8, AppleShare,
PPP and MacTCP and SuperFinder. Fetch, Eudora and NCSA Telnet are
served up from a 6100/66 running 7.5.3 over PhoneNet connectors. Next
step is to get an external floppy for the Plus and let it do ALL the
work ;-)
All in all pretty good for a $5 computer
and a $3 modem.
Thanks again,
Simon
