Now, if you were to remove the monitor, and replace it witha another 15" capable of …

I heard on the mac show live awhile back that an upgrade manufacturer was gonna be coming out with a dual G4 upgrade. Dunno if this is truth or rumor though.

I'm sure this will happen. At one time they were selling quad-processor upgrades for the older beige macs (back in the 604 era). Because the system supports multiple processors, …
The only things that are differnt between then dual G4 nd the old G4 is the gigabit eithernet chip sitting next to the processor board. I looked at my mobo, and there is actually p…
I swapped my dual's MP card into my single G4 machine it works with the Apple module. There is also the lack of the Internal firewire connector but you can solder it on the pins ar…

You got be kidding, the announcement was made at MWSF january 5th 2000. Last sentence of the pressrelease:

Anyone know where i could get the DualG4 Daughtercard/Heatsink/Gigabit ethernet-chip? where to buy parts for new Mac comps? Can it be tricked out of Apple? any info...
The best options are non-tradtional overclocking techniques, since Apple has neglected to give us traditional means (ie, jumpers). A list of things to use:
1. Thermal paste

Is it possible to modify the case of the old i-mac to allow for ventilation, thereby enabling one to get rid of that noisy fan (as with the new i-macs, if I'm not mistaken)??
Sure, take a drill and put holes all over the top and sides of the case.....
Seriously though, I don't think so. Does anybody know if the guts of the new iMacs are arranged differ…
I am not sure exactly how but i know that the new "guts" of the iMacs are arranged quite differently to allow more efficient cooling without a fan than the originals. As for punchi…

Apple went with new "short neck" CRT displays in the fanless models. I believe they use less energy, allowed the iMac logic board to be pushed further back in the case, and, coupl…
