About

The Name Registry, is a data structure maintained by Mac OS that stores hardware and software configuration information in the second generation of Power Macintosh computers. This Name Registry is only discribed in the developper documentation "Designing PCI Cards and Drivers for Power Macintosh Computers". NameRegistry Inspector will show you these data. You will find very very interesting things, mainly in the recent Macintosh : detailed hardware configuration, memory sims characteristics, various internal speeds (CPU, memory bus, backside cache, PCI bus, USB, IEE1394 ...), Mac serial number, case color code, detailed USB configuration, various manufacturers names of your USB devices (ie: Apple mouse and keyboard ...) etc... NameRegistry Inspector is able to save the results in a file or to print. Shareware notice : NameRegistry Inspector is a 10$ US shareware. It runs on a Power Macintosh or compatible. Program installation and use : + Simply lauch NameRegistry Inspector + The programm will list the entire Name Registry which consist of a hierarchy, inside which there are properties. + For a each property the program shows the name and if available the associated value(s). + In case of big values (hundreds of bytes) the data is shown as a memory dump : hex values, then ASCII representation if possible + In case of very big values (thousands of bytes), the memory dump is limited to the first 608 bytes. This will be changed if future release, where the user will have the choice to give a max dump size or not. The 608 Bytes limit was added to avoid a too big list... + For short values (below 5 bytes), data is also shown as decimal values.
