The Old Computer Challenge snuck up on me this year. I was hoping to get my 1997 Powerbook 3400c up with BeOS but I still haven't found a functioning CD-ROM drive that is reasonably priced. However, Jeff Geerling has already [published a solution](https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2024/build-log-macintosh-powerbook-3400c).
Until then, I will be running MacOS 9. Fortunately, it still has a copy of NCSA telnet so I can still get to [Lambda Moo](telnet://lambda.moo.mud.org:8888) for [DJ Screwtape's](https://mastodon.sdf.org/@screwlisp@gamerplus.org) [*Zhen House set inside LambdaMOO*](https://anonradio.net/#qtip) show.
