Be aware that the eMacs were around during the time of the capacitor plague, so that might be something you want to check into. If you're handy with a soldering iron, it shouldn't…

I picked up a 1.25ghz eMac off of these boards a while back. Its a nice machine. I mainly use it as an internet radio and I do any scanning I need to do on it. It has the airpor…

well, i delved into the machine, and upped the HDD to 80GB now. it made a HUGE speed increase. Anyways. It was VERY frustrating working on it, because I had to put it back toget…

G4 dual + free = awesome! Congrats.

When I first installed 10.4, it was slow as hell. I mean, apps took like up to 4 minutes to launch. After doing all the updates, and repairing permissions (that was REALLY screwe…

good deal!

well, i left the keyboard and mouse, forgot to tell you about that. The mouse they used was a hocky-puck mouse (they got a mini and moved the mouse to that) and the spare keyboard…

uh.. no leopard. people are reporting video problems with the GFX card in these. So tiger it will be. As far as optical drives... Well, the CD/CD-RW functions work I think the…

Very nice price for a decent machine. I remember lusting over these in computer shops several years ago! The CRTs in the eMacs are very crisp IIRC. Getting Leopard on it should…

That's what I use as my main system... mostly for graphics and audio. Very nice for $130. ISTR having some issues with the optical drive at first, but they went away with one of th…

I've got a 700MHz eMac. It is a good system. I don't use it much any more since though. I upgraded and Hard Drive and DVD drive in mine, they are quite a pain to get you. B sure t…

I am picking up an eMac 700Mhz off of Craigslist for $130. it was $135, but since I am the only one serious about it, and am picking it up today, he knocked off $5. specs: eMa…

Kudos to you for putting your older machines back on Freecycle and sharing the wealth! Click to expand... Thanks. I have been very lucky with Freecycle over the past couple of…

Ooh, will they do T-shirts for the iPhone launch too? I didn't meet any Mac enthusiasts though, I'm a bit too too shy to start talking to any of the other people there! They'd prob…

I actually turned up at about 6.30pm because I got held up in traffic, but there was still a queue to get in! I was pretty lucky because the T-shirts ran out very shortly after I e…

I got a Leopard T-shirt too in Glasgow! I was lucky as they ran out very shortly after I went in the door. There was actually a queue down Buchanan Street when I arrived and the st…

I think it's funny (the BSoD thing, that is). It harkens back to Apple's evangelist past, and it shows that even a major corporation can have a sense of humor. I'm sure that in 1…

Hahah, an installfest. Anyway, looks like a sweet time...i wish i could've gone to a Leopard party..but y'know, i live in the middle of nowhere, have no car, and...well...yeah.…

I got the G3 400 up and running. Since I made out so well on this deal I think it will go back up on Freecycle along with my AIO G3 and another BW 400 I have. I'll definitely kee…

Here's an update... I cracked it open... 1 of the IC's was cocked a pretty good bit out of its socket. Even when I pushed it in and checked the rest of them, STILL no joy. I left i…

The BSoD thing is almost as good as Steve calling it Winders during a keynote. The only Apple shirt I have is from the 12 Oaks Apple Store opening in Novi, Michigan. I was #31 …

I like the BSoD thing.

Wooo! Just got back from the Apple Store and I got a Leopard T-shirt! So even though I can't have Leopard, I've still got the T-shirt! My G3 cried when it saw the T-shirt from t…
