For the life of me I can't rememeber these feautures before! Well, whatever, hahahah

Does it contain a stock SE motherboard Click to expand... No. The Dynamac went down that path, apparently, and used my favourite retro display tech - electroluminescent. http…

Hey Mars, What vintage is that iMac G5? If it's some of the early models prior to mid-2005, it may be the internal power supply unit. If so, check to see if Apple still covers i…

Got the Powerbook. I had some very weird problem happen to me though, and now that I think about it I suspect it is due to power loss. The 190 came with a battery that seems to hol…
