    Retro console gaming?

    Someone must have but I can't remember when and where. Seeing the prices of large capacity CF cards compared to sata ssd I doubt you would gain much by using the former and not the later if you're looking for a lighter and less noisy alternative than an IDE hdd.

    Retro console gaming?

    Get the sata upgrade kit and the original Sony adapter. There are (or can be) some compatibility problems with 3rd party adapters for some reason.

    Retro console gaming?

    3rd party adapters have a yellow sticker where the ethernet connector should be like on original Sony adapters, but they don't have a network at all. Gamestar, Kaico, whichever the 3rd party, it's the same.

    Retro console gaming?

    Sata adapters are all 3rd party. You can also find boards to modify original Sony network adapterd, thus retaining the network function.

    Retro console gaming?

    If you're looking for the original Sony branded hdd, you'll get the rails, but if you just buy the network adapter loose you can use almost any IDE hdd you want. I don't think anyone made such extenders. Some companies made regular ps/ps2 pad cable extender iirc, and Sony themselves sold pads...

    Retro console gaming?

    You don't really need mounting rails unless you plan to move the ps2 around a lot. And the party is still going on, people continue playing online nowadays. It runs NetBSD too!

    Revisited Sheepshaver after a few years away. I'm impressed.

    That's not true for the original SheepShaver for BeOS on BeBox and PPC Macs, it runs code directly on the cpu. It needs a PPC Mac Rom on the BeBox but it accesses it directly on any supported Apple computers.

    Performa 450 new user

    I beg to differ, it usually works after a cold reboot (or maybe just a soft one), a bit like the PowerMac 6100. I have a spare 10dipswitch adapter somewhere, I'll send you a PM.

    PCMCIA CF Card woes (Windows 95 and Windows 98)

    You said the card is recognized as a ide/esdi controller but doesn't give a driveletter, how does it show up in System Properties? Try ataenab from https://tssc.de/ in pure DOS, or cbata/unata if your chipset is cardbus compatible. You can also try Cardware 7 for Win98 from the same website.
