I still have pretty much every CD that came with my Performa 5260/120 including the bundled software. You already are waiting on me for the system restore CD. I'll be making an image of it soon because I finally got some "Brasso" which I can use to polish out the scratches on the disc so I can finally make the image.

I'll try Brasso next time. Not sure how it works with the plastic.
Up to now I've used very, very hot soapy water (Fairy Liquid seems to work best), always after I've washed out the baby's bottles of course. Leave it to soak for a few minutes and then rub dry with a clean cotton dish towel.

Use a Banana to clean the scrathes on your CD's!
...just like these people:

hey! I haven't tried it though...
if you don't succeed,
well, at least you'll feel like a monkey!

I used Brasso once on a couple of audio CDs and it worked a treat.

@sheepmyshaver123:

Please be patient.

Hi there,

Will it work if I create the CD image of the Performa 5260/120 system restore CD using "DVD/CD master" using Disk Utility in Mac OS X 10.6 ? Or, should I make an image of this CD using Toast in OS 9 on my iMac G4?

Disk Utility will work too if you image the device. But it's quite tricky.

Currently ripping the disc using Toast 5.0.2 on OS 9.2.2 . Hopefully I buffered out the scratches well enough! Will see how it goes...

I can take a high-res photo of the disc itself with my DSLR camera, if that would be considered useful. Afterward I can also list which original bundled CD-ROMs I still have.

OK, Toast image created, and compared with original CD - identical. All modification dates etc. are correct. I'm stuffing the disc image at this time. I'll start the upload and I'll be able to post the link here soon!

ARGH, I need to re-image the disc. I mounted the image and it changed the Modified date!! I forgot about that ( only read it once before on this site)!!!!! (edit: re-imaged and stuffing now)

OK, here it is! http://www.megaupload.com/?d=88M8ESMH

Yep I locked the image, verified that it's identical to the original, same time stamps on CD volume itself and Desktop DB/DF files (as well as other files).

I'll create a page here on the site for it.

BTW sheepmyshaver123 If you didn't realize, I'm "necro2607" from Higher Intellect who you were previously asking for this CD...

EDIT: Added new Apps/OS page at Macintosh System 7.5.3 for Performa 5260/120

I sure do. As I mentioned in an earlier post ,I'll type up a list of each CD that I have (maybe tonight if I get the chance).

Here's a list of CD-ROM titles I have

These are all the ones that I'm pretty sure were bundled with my Performa 5260/120:

haha, OK, I can do this over some time. Once I start, I'll start a new thread on the forums here and I'll update each time I rip another CD and add to my server

I have a few of those CDs that came bundled with my family's Performa. I did get Wacky Jacks, though.

My family's first Mac was a Performa 6200CD. I happened to have CardShop Plus! on hand, but the rest are in storage. I'll start uploading them when I find them.

There is now a CardShop Plus! page on Macintosh Garden.

Enjoy!
PowerPup.

I believe we have the restore discs for both the 6200CD and the 6230CD, (as well as a couple others.)

However, I am unsure of their condition at the moment. I'll post when I get a hold of them. (Probably within a week.)

Oh yeah, here's a list of what I know we also have:
3D Atlas CD
1995 Groiler's Multimedia Encyclopedia CD
The Family Doctor CD
Thinkin Things 2 CD
Felix The Cat CD (This disc is sadly scratched up badly, a rebuff might fix it though.)

Will do. Mediafire looked like the most efficient way to upload them anyway.

(Offtopic: btw, I have a few MacAddict CDs that are in your wish list. I'll have them uploaded and will email you the links by sometime tomorrow. They're discs 73, 76, 79, 84.)

"I have a few MacAddict CDs that are in your wish list."

You've got the wrong guy; that's my wish list: http://sites.google.com/site/oldmacarchive/wishlist

My e-mail link can be found on the Old Mac Archive.

Okay, I'll just email you both. I have about 3 of the 4 mentioned MacAddict discs uploaded, I plan on also uploading 2 discs that came from some special edition, they are called "Games" and "Utilities." They have a capital "S" where the disc number usually is. I've used DiskTracker to make individual catalogs of the special discs and will upload these as well.

I realized I did not properly say that the following are in storage and will probably take a week before I can get a hold of them:
6200CD and the 6230CD restore CDs
3D Atlas CD
1995 Groiler's Multimedia Encyclopedia CD
The Family Doctor CD
Thinkin Things 2 CD

As for the Felix the Cat CD, I do have it, but since the local Hollywood Video closed a couple years ago along with its GameCrazy store, I don't know of any place to get the disc rebuffed. So getting that disc archived will take a while.

The CDs are at my dad's house. I'll probably be able to pick them pick up sometime next week, college starts Tuesday for me so I'm going to be quite busy. I'll inform you as soon as I get them.

Yes, when I get them I will upload them and scan the CD labels.

College just started for me today so I'm going to be very busy doing homework. I might be able to pick up the CDs in 7 to 10 days. It will depend on how busy I am with College.

Okay, looks like there was a bit of a misunderstanding.

I was saying that I own Performa CD 6200CD and Performa CD 6230CD. They are at my father's house so it will be a while before I can pick them up to scan and upload them.

have you downloaded these? or do you want me to mirror?
