Someone approached me about some "prior art" and I am now looking at
some 1/4" carts marked "quadra 950 retrospect 2.0 mac os" I made in the
early 1990's.
If somehow I could find a working 1/4" drive (scsi) and got it connected
to a macintosh,
Is there any hope I could find a copy of retrospect 2.0?
anyone else ever try this?
it's probably hopeless, but it might be a fun ride. hard to say.
good thing I saved that powerbook 145b :-)

Don't know if it helps or not, but I have a wheeled table in the garage with
an 8600 that I use for testing SCSI drives, peripherals. Was working last
time I fired it up. I used to use a 9500. It is still on the floor; was
working when I pulled it out. It's yours if you want it. (This is in
Pleasanton, California.)
I think I kept both systems at 8.6, since that was last of the good SCSI
support drivers.
