3400 recessitation?? :-( — #2

3400 recessitation?? :-( — #1

I picked up a 3400 on eBay a week or two ago. It was sold w/o an ac adapter but w/ a charged battery. When it arrived, I played with it a bit, booting it up on two occasions. Aft…

Connect Security Cameras to Powerbook? — #3

Yes, I also emailed the company and they said they don't know about Macs, but it needs a capture card of some kind. So now I'm going to have to look for a capture device.

Connect Security Cameras to Powerbook? — #2

That S-Video port on the back of the Lombard only does output, not input. You'll need either a PCMCIA or USB video capture solution of some sort.

The PCI box for 3400? — #6

Expansion chassis are very uncommon. At least one company, possibly Magma, advertised one for the SE and Portable, so anything post SE/II was expandable via an external box. Assumi…

3400c Memory — #4

Not really, but you'll have to go a ways below $99 to sell it on ebay vs him selling it on his site. They can be hard to find since most of the 3400cs on ebay these days seem to b…

Weird Sawtooth G4 Performance Issues... — #11

The problem here is you are using a new OS with high overheads on a very old CPU and clapped out graphics card. Tiger should give you a much smoother ride.

The PCI box for 3400? — #5
