i think the PB 1400 comes with onboard ethernet. if this is true all you need to get those files transferred is a $5 cable, and it will be ALOT faster than serial... you need a "et…

The 1400 doesn't have ethernet built in but does have scsi. Does you G3 have a scsi card? If so use the scsi disk mode on the powerbook. Jeff

Is there any way for me to get a voodoo card into my rev D imac? Is there some company that will sauder a board in, or has used the "Perch" slot to include 3D rendering? Can I ge…

I got that iMac cdrom update and now my cd's are slower than ever. I think it was better off without it. anyone agree? Maybe it's just me. Also, I love the Mac OS but the most an…

just a quick question to anyone who may or may not know. i was checking out the new g4s on apple's site and i read alot about them from sites mentions here , and i also watched ste…

I've had the same concerns as you about the G4 400 motherboard. Here's the way I understand it. . . The G4 400 will first be released on the Yosemite motherboard, the same motherbo…

I'm about to buy a new iMac and iBook for myself and my fiancee. I will then have an 8600/250 and a Quadra 800. I'm using a cable modem with 10 base T ethernet for internet access.…

I'm not etirely sure about this, but a friend of mine has 3 Macs (an iMac, PowerComputing 180, and a Mac IIfx). Each computer is connected to the internet over a 56k modem, and the…

IP routing via IPNetRouter is not something that will tax your Quadra - even at 10Mbs speeds. If you are concerened about security you might want to use your Quadra for routing o…

I just scored an old IIci (for $100; new 'twas $6499 list) so that I wouldn't have to use my 7500 to do IPNR. It sits in the closet humming along (it was a former corporate server …

Using a IIfx with a cable modem as router machine on a 10base-t network, works fine, no lower speeds and very stable. I think it would be a waste to use a great machine like a 8600…

I use a Q650 with Vicom SoftRouter and have been really happy. Soon I'll be moving to an X-Router from MacSense. Does the same thing but through a little hardware hub type thing. …

I'd just like to say thanks for all the input. I've decided to use the Quadra for routing based on the responses I've gotten. Thanks again Tony

I am looking into buying and older powerbook for e-mail and word processing. I would also like to be able to network it with my iMac. I was wondering which model you would recomm…

I have a 540c in good shape which has ethernet, I think 20 meg of RAM (I'll check if you're interested). It's a good choice in that it was top of the line when built. Active color …
