I was under the impression that usb 2 will not run under os 9.x so you are stuck with usb 1.1 speeds. I do own a sonnet tempo 133 card so this is starting to sound like the best …

Was randomly surfing for parts and found a place selling 1gb memory sticks for this machine cheap. I have 2 of them on the way for $37 shipped so I'll have the full 2gb of DDR2 533…

ZOMG Apple /// ! ZOMG Apple Bose speakers ! ZOMG Shiva Fastpath and two Gatorboxes !

Just saw this on CL, for comparison. Click to expand... You can't really compare bulk lots to singles. Bulk lots are always cheaper because the seller is offloading the hassle…

Yeah, with the RAM, shipping and all those accessories, that seems pretty fair.

taerG boJ!

That's like awesome. Great job.

Good question. Dunno right now - maybe I'll sell it or pass it on to a friend. Cinema Display works - I'm using it now. There's one column of stuck pixels (ie a 1 pixel wide ver…

Yes, it's doing a basic RAM test. You can't do it on all Macs, but you can likely disable the startup memory test by holding down option + command (I think) when you double-click …

Do you snag mostly mac/apple II stuff or do you have other brands you seek out?

Awesome. LOL I needed that quote tonight. I THINK those came from one of my old friends that used to run a local Apple II repair business. He was going to dumpster them (they w…

When archaeologists discover the ruins of your house, they'll be like "WTF did he have so many Disk ][ drives?!"

Here's a few pics of some of my older conquests. I've included a few pics of the basement double tier area... Feel free to guess at what some of the stuff is. { "li…

I agree with the other posts that $50 is way too much for most G3 iMacs. I couldn't get $20 for the slot load 350MHz one I had; ended up giving it to a small non-profit.

Personally, I couldn't be bothered with an iMac under 600MHz. If you don't even plan on doing anything with it, then pass entirely. Click to expand... As I mentioned in my sec…

See the bolded sentense Click to expand... *clears throat* Should I guess this was simply a joke? Click to expand... No, taht is me bieng too lzay to use the splelchcek.

Thats a good deal for a high-res model. I'd like to compare one with my 1.5GHz 12" sometime just to see how much faster it is. Its crazy how much those things still sell for whe…

That RAM is definitely a rarity.

Another question...I have two Kangas, and the one with 64MB of RAM boots noticably faster than the one with 160MB of RAM. There's a noticable pause between the power-on chime and t…

Damn osgeld kinda odd how close you live to me yet how different the area is. Around here it is more redneck/wiggers/wanna be thugs... yay. Also, I still have the number of that pl…

Personally, I couldn't be bothered with an iMac under 600MHz. Click to expand... Yep. On the other hand, if it is slot loading you could put those coloured case bits onto a 600…

In the mid-west. Click to expand... I'm in the midwest too (Kansas) and still don't think a G3 iMac is worth much of anything. Ya, we don't have much to choose from around her…

To add insult to injury, the damage to the ribbon caused a short which took out the Combo drive! I always make triple-sure now to put the short hex screw in the middle. :'( Cl…
