It's going to be given to a friend as an upgrade to an original bondi iMac which I gave him a few years back. He doesn't know that he's getting it though. It's sort of a late-Chris…
Seems a bit steep to me, unless it's in museum condition. The real question is: is it worth it to you? If the $50 won't lead to starvation and the iMac is something you'd get any u…
The campus PC repair shop has a "scrap pile" of old machines, mostly PCs, which are destined for the recycler. In the past year, I have purchased a desktop G3 and a 20" Apple Color…
I just assumed they did - as I said, when I was on dialup, the 68kMLA loaded faster than most other sites, and I assumed it was because it was cached better than most other sites, …
I just bought one of these off of another member
From what I gather, it's got an Ethernet port, CD-ROM, Zip Drive, Maybe a battery, Active-Matrix screen, 180Mhz CPU, 144MB RAM (Ra…
Yeah, I tried that, too. The WaveLAN card can be sort-of forced to fit in a clamshell iBook; and fits with some fiddling in a gumdrop iMac, but not in a PowerMac.

I tried the same in my sawtooth and MDD - one problem you'll consistently run into is the fact that the black plastic anten…
So the HD in the Cube fell over and died, forcing me to upgrade to my new silver tower of G4 awesome. I picked up a 200GB Seagate HD from a friend, made three partitions (X, 9 and…
Right now, for me, using Safari 4 in OS X...

Depending on how often you visit the forums, its likely cached a lot more than Google is. I noticed the exact same thing myself when I was on dialup, the 68kMLA loaded faster than …
I've noticed this lately... at home on my crappy 56k dial-up, the 68kmla (I have "view new posts" bookmarked) consistently loads faster than Google's home page. Just thought it odd…
Nice to see that you got your PB100 up and running - nice little machines and so easy to pull apart. I had a similar issue with a PB100 - exactly the same distribution of marks bu…
Oh, I feel like such an idiot! I was reading about that earlier, and I forgot about that. Hmm I'll have to hook it into something else, I'll save it for something else. I was on…
If you have the SA4 Protools Audio Card installed then yes, it will only connect to the 442 interface and not the 888. If you have the even older SoundTools audio card, then the o…
What model Performa is it from? The Classic, like all Compact Macs, requires a SCSI hard drive. Most Performas, such as your 631CD use an IDE hard drive, which sadly will not work.…
I have the original Macintosh Classic, and I was wondering what the maximum hard drive could be that could fit in there. Apparently, my hard drive is fried in it, based upon what …
I have started the upgrade, almost finished but ran into a snag. I can not get it to recognize the G3 card and when installed it will only startup with extensions off. The card i…
I had that happen to a screen when I had some PB1xx systems. If I am not mistaken it is screen rot and is unrepairable.

Yeah, it has been like this since I g…

Based on the other Kanga I have, I've determined that this one's issue has to be the backup battery. One Kanga boots from battery and keeps proper time. The other one does neither.…
