An Apple III had built-in II Plus emulation and that was with 40 columns and only 48k RAM. Not having a language card, how do you load integer basic programs or run Pascal. So tech…

Well, I have 8MB and a 120MB HD, so I am not so restricted.
I do like the machine. The screen is a thing of beauty (especially in a well lit area with the backlight off), and a fa…
Thanks beachycove and Byrd. The battery does not look to be leaking any fluids. In fact it looks like it just came out of factory shrink wrap. I'll try the battery revival remedies…

Ergh, MacRumors... they are all just self obsessed pricks there. I was on there for a while as Marsman478 but I rarely p…
As a spur of the moment thing I decided to dig out my two old Amigas to see what state they were in after years of being left idle. Happily both seem in working order (but I had to…
AppleFritter was the first Mac community I joined. When they switched to the new (current) forums, the place lost a lot of its life. I still check in every now and again, and som…
Is this a normal reaction to a dead battery?

Yes it seems to happen when the battery hasn't been used for some time on PB 1x0 machines, and usually a good wa…

I posted a few weeks ago in the Conquests forum, but I think this post belongs here. This is my latest eBay find, a PowerBook 180. It is in perfect condition but sold as Parts Only…

Is this just for snits and giggles, or do you have purpose in mind for this machine? Now that it's been mentioned, I second the vote for the Jackhammer as a pure performance upgra…

Hmm... I managed to find a PAS 16 without the interface or cable for $5. Should I take it and pray that I can find the interface/cable?

I just got 80 mins. charge from the formerly dead battery in the PB 180 while running Battery Amnesia (great utility). And that is with all power-saving features turned off, which …
