I miss my Apple //e. I learned to program in basic and it was so much fun. I stayed up well into the night writing code on that machine and I wish I still had it to play with. When I got my first Mac my wife, who never lets me keep anything too long if I’m not using it made me get rid of it. I gave it to my brother-in-law and I have no idea if he still has it. I suspect not.
In addition to a modem card and a printer card I had two 3.5 disc drives. I think I had other cards but don’t remember what they were. I also don’t remember the 80 column card.?
For many years I felt Appleworks on the //e was better than on the Mac. And remember the computer message boards? You would post a message and come back a few hours later and find a response. How exciting that was.

?Hi John,
There is this hub from OWC
It has usb 3.1 ports allowing thumb drives. The ethernet port would open one port on your computer. If you had a mini display port adapter from an older computer, that would free up another port for your display.
I can't say I've ever used it, but all the other OWC things I've had for networking have been solid. It's also a bit pricey.

Re: Any Apple Remote Desktop Users in the Group?
I use other tools because ARD has limitations. If you like the way ARD works, you might check out a nice tool called Screens that I use from the desktop and iOS devices. That said, ARD does not work between certain combinations of versions of the Mac OS. The good news is that Apple hasn’t deprecated it entirely, yet.

USB and USB-3 often have the same physical connector. Why would you do that? Do you have a device that has the funky flatter version of USB-3 connector? If you do you can use a dongle, or you can use a more commonly available USB-3 to USB-A cable. Jonathan On May 14, 2020, at 12:19 PM, Harry Jacobson-Beyer <hejb44@...> wrote:

The audio port goes to Bose speakers. On one side the USB-C goes to the power supply, the other goes to Ethernet.
On the other side one goes to an HDMI for for the external monitor & the other goes to TimeMachine.
Done, nothing left for another USB-C external drive that I’ll remove & store elsewhere. No place for a USB-C thumb drive, no place to plug in the iPhone or iPad.
The laptop is hanging off the back of the desk & difficult to get to to unplug the only thing I can switch out, the TimeMachine. It would be good to have a multi port USB-C to sit on the desk.

So has anyone else had this problem. If so were you able to correct it? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I hope everyone is well and staying safe and sane during this crazy time we are living through.
Many devices use that 2.45 GHz frequency. Our old garage door opener used it and I’d often have Bluetooth problems when the door was opened or closed. Do you have any other wireless things around? Wi-Fi can use?that frequency. If you have an external USB device, unplug it because it might be radiating.
