Thanks for the advice. My concern about the 575 is that it has the monitor attached...I'd like to get by without it! Thus my question about putting the 575 mobo in a different case…

I'd go with the 575...it's convenient and compact, and offers everything that the 605 and the 475, with the addition of the comm-slot.

a 575 offers a very nice monitor, and is identical to the Quadra 605 in all respects except that you can add ethernet without taking the LC PDS slot. The 575 motherboard uses a co…

I'm looking to put together a '040 machine with an Apple IIe card. From what I know, I think I want to find a Quadra 605, put a real '040 in it, and overclock it to 33MHz. Is there…

Hi all, I am the …proud? owner of two fully functional ROM 0 IIgses. I want to sell one and the board out of the other so as to swap in a ROM 3 board and be able to net-boot the l…

Ermm... Guy's you have a whole forum for the G5... Yet you choose to hi-jack this thread. So in light of 64bit applications, how does your discussion contribute to my problem solvi…

I suppose a peek inside to look for a PRAM battery could be in order. There may also be some sort of reset button situated internally. You never know. Few of us have ever even s…

Well looks like that may very well be a typo, the only alternative name I've found for Outbound's laptop is "RealTech Travler."

They wrongly called it the "Outback"! Click to expand... Perhaps the specific model is called Outback? Click to expand... Possible. Though typos like that were not unheard…

They wrongly called it the "Outback"! Click to expand... Perhaps the specific model is called Outback?

According to Wikipedia, Outbound was NOT an Australian company - which a lot of people said it was. :-/

Apparently just pressing any key on the keyboard should power it up. http://forum.soft32.com/mac/Outbound-laptop-ftopict7833.html

Nice! Which models?

I think about ten desktops and ten portables - most working Culling is good. JB

How many macs do you have?

I found it. It's on page 486, but it doesn't say how to turn it on. They wrongly called it the "Outback"!

I think I remember reading how to turn it on in MacWorld MacSecrets 5th Edition for some reason. I know that they do talk about that laptop in that book and the straw.

Cost: $61 AUD, which is a bit to me but should enable me to offload some other Macs as I hone down the collection Seems OS X is a difficult prospect on these machines - some so…

Great score...the 3400 and the Kanga are two machines I've always wanted. Hope it serves you well

Good job. I hope you did not pay too much for it. Regardless I have been trying to find one of these for a while but apparently everyone holds on to them here. I've only been ab…

i don't know if this is the right forum, but i have an Outbound Notebook, a 68k mac laptop clone, that i got at a thrift shop. it does not appear to have a power button, and i have…

Hi, In my quest for the "best" of each Powerbook generation made (which I will knowingly never attain, but having fun in the process!), I won a Powerbook G3 "Kanga" off eBay, hope…

In geekbench tests, the original macbook air (1.6GHz C2D) whups the pants off of all G5 systems except the dual2.7 and the dualdual2.5. This test is admittedly only of CPU and ram …

i waited way too long, and they were already sold... whoever got them got a steal... $50 apiece.... Click to expand... Yeah, that's happened to me too. For better or worse, one…
