I have hosed off old AT power supplies with hot water (and a little liquid soap) before. As long as you let them dry out (few days to a week depending on local humidity) for a whil…

Welcome!

Hey all, I'm new to the site!! Kinda thought I come introduce myself a little I'm Akira from Greater Manchester, England. Been using Macs ever since they introduced System 7 wa…

I have retrieved monitors (high voltage components) and power supplies after a thorough soaking in Mother Nature's distilled water from the sky. As long as they are well dried, I …

i have in the past added macs to existing networks but never created one from scratch, here are the things that i get to work with: 1 Power mac G4 1 Power Mac G3 2 patch cords …

My recently-acquired IIfx (with Mac II top cover) came to me in an excessively grimy condition. Oddly enough, because it cleaned up so well, the layer of dirt may have actually pre…

Thats one ugly mofo.

a fast G4 upgrade Click to expand... Yeah, good luck with that. I've been trying to find a good price on one of these upgrades for months, with no luck at all. They regularly f…

Ambitious? Tell 'im 'e's dreamin'!

Egg cartons and icecube trays work nicely too.

I was curious as to why the eBay offering might have needed to be held—almost as if just the isolated rear and front panels were available for display—while it was having its pictu…

What's even more messed up is that right before I graduated, the school bought even more clones and those new clones used a slightly smaller version of the desktop version of that …

That same case design, except in a desktop form, was used by a bunch of PC clones we used to have in school. Kind of scary.

I remember reading about PowerTools in MacAddict back in the day...from memory they sold their machines in kit form, with no RAM, hard drive, video card or peripherals. Thats the f…

Perhaps as a result of my ineptitude with the search engine, I have seen/found no current/prior reference in these forums to this sale on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl…

When I was taking apart the first iBook, I used one paper cup for each "event". An event would be like: - Remove bottom plastic (and all the screws for this go into a cup) - Rem…

Yeah, I do the exact same thing....but then I bump the paper......and its all downhill after that :-/

Whenever I'm taking out screws, I lay them down on a piece of paper in roughly the arrangement they came out, and write and draw around them to make things clearer where they go ba…

Well I got it to boot once... ...I had a Sonnet Crescendo G3 in there that seemed to be one cause of the problem. I also had to switch between the 2 SCSI connectors on the Logic B…

That Sawtooth is a good solid box. Most of them can be OC'd to 550MHz or more, and with a fast G4 upgrade and a video card upgrade, will do 720p HD video. Check to see which versio…
