Or better yet, track down a board from a 3400/240, the fastest stock pre-G3 PowerBook ever. (or just track down a Kanga board)

While you have it apart, why not shoot for 225MHz? That would make it the fastest non-G3/G4 Powerbook ever

That Epson is win. Welcome to the retro netbook club

The very early sawtooth used the same psu as the B&W. Most sawtooths had two more pins on the connector.

The Gateway probably wins, hands-down, for combination of oldest and "netbook"; although it wasn't really possible to use it as a "netbook" when it was new. The roughly same age, …

Anybody ever try putting a Sawtooth motherboard in a B&W case? Since it looks like the motherboard in my B&W is dead, I'm thinking it would make more sense just to…

I suppose it's just speaking the obvious to point out it'd probably be a bad idea to put that G4 module into your beige machine, unless you're willing to take the risk that it'll m…

congrats, it sounds like its a cool conquest, and a ton of fun, but... your going to have to go back abit further for "netbooks" http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Libret…

I was at SalVal today, and found a small leather bag which contained a fully functional AST 280M notebook. Specs: Cyrix (Ha! Remember them?) 200GXM CPU 32 MB RAM 8" 640x480 col…

At this point, I'm at a bit of a loss about what to do. My two choices seem to be either to try and grab a cheap releacement motherboard (preferably a rev2 to replace the current r…

I can't see why not - it was never an official upgrade, but all the other parts should be the same.

Well I think I just found the answer, it is definitely due to size. These things are absolute barrels for the capacitance that we need. http://www.parts-express.com/wizards/searc…

My sincere apologies to you all if I haven't been getting back to you in a timely manner about shipping costs for sending work to me. Things are, as usual, hectic yet not too busy…

I am about to replace my old leaky caps on my IIci but before I go ahead and order them from Trag I wanted to see if anyone knew whether or not mylar capacitors might be an option …

I use tape all the time for the vintage gear (archives).

Radius Rocks! I've been using their products since '87 and the one I love most is my 81/110 with the Radius VideoVision Studio Setup. I liked its design so much that I snagged a N…

Did you ever figure anything out? I have a SE and an EtherWave and have been trying to get my SE on the net.

I like the 81/110 Radius, and I own one. Still the tape drive in the WGS 8150 is nice, but I have externals so backup is not a problem.

The Radius is the greater rarity. WGServers are no different than ordinary Macs of the day, though both (?) machines likely have an extra large L2 cache. If it's 1MB, the chip alo…

I put the new 128MB module into my LC 575 and it registered fine, so I'll post the link if anyone else is interested. It's a darn good price, but there are only three left: http:/…

I have both of these, but only enough parts to max out one of them. The positives I see: Radius has internal fast SCSI and integrated video. WGS 8150 has a tape drive, is a bit …

(I waited to post this until after I got back from vacation and could do some troubleshooting.) Just before leaving for CA, I received the G4, installed it in the B&W, and…

Any ideas on the spontaneous bootup and the lack of "influence" via the ADB? Could the power supply also have issues? I do have a spare but it is about the exact age as the other…

Oh, the WGS is the 'hub' of my new testbench. I have an AAUI-to-10BaseT adapter that has a built-in 3 port hub connected (so I don't need a dedicated hub on the testbench,) and ha…

So I just dug my Workgroup Server 7350 out of storage, and wanted to turn it into an actual production server again. Turns out the hard drive toasted itself. So I swapped in a ne…
