The very early sawtooth used the same psu as the B&W. Most sawtooths had two more pins on the connector.

The Gateway probably wins, hands-down, for combination of oldest and "netbook"; although it wasn't really possible to use it as a "netbook" when it was new. The roughly same age, …

Anybody ever try putting a Sawtooth motherboard in a B&W case? Since it looks like the motherboard in my B&W is dead, I'm thinking it would make more sense just to…

I suppose it's just speaking the obvious to point out it'd probably be a bad idea to put that G4 module into your beige machine, unless you're willing to take the risk that it'll m…

congrats, it sounds like its a cool conquest, and a ton of fun, but... your going to have to go back abit further for "netbooks" http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Libret…

I was at SalVal today, and found a small leather bag which contained a fully functional AST 280M notebook. Specs: Cyrix (Ha! Remember them?) 200GXM CPU 32 MB RAM 8" 640x480 col…

At this point, I'm at a bit of a loss about what to do. My two choices seem to be either to try and grab a cheap releacement motherboard (preferably a rev2 to replace the current r…

I can't see why not - it was never an official upgrade, but all the other parts should be the same.

Well I think I just found the answer, it is definitely due to size. These things are absolute barrels for the capacitance that we need. http://www.parts-express.com/wizards/searc…

My sincere apologies to you all if I haven't been getting back to you in a timely manner about shipping costs for sending work to me. Things are, as usual, hectic yet not too busy…

I am about to replace my old leaky caps on my IIci but before I go ahead and order them from Trag I wanted to see if anyone knew whether or not mylar capacitors might be an option …

Then the only change was that holes were drilled in the case. I had assumed that the case without holes in the side must have had a speaker grill elsewhere, and so that the speaker…

My Classic two has the speaker grille but the speaker as far as I know has not moved in either iteration of Classic II!

There were indeed two different Classic II cases, the difference between them being the speaker location. Whether there was a corresponding change in the logic board configuration …

Both built in Singapore, and both boards indicate they were assembled there too. Pina's book lists the part numbers for the 4 chip ROM board only which is odd as it's dated 1993 w…

Where did the speakers get relocated to? Click to expand... They didn't. I don't know what he's talking about. I have heard that the CLassic II had two different ROM configs, …

Is the change perhaps associated with when the speaker was moved? That would be easier to pin down to a specific date. Click to expand... In these two, the speakers are located…

I use tape all the time for the vintage gear (archives).

After looking through all the topics in this forum, I don't see that this has come up before; my apologies if it has. I have two logic boards, both marked as Classic II and dated …

Radius Rocks! I've been using their products since '87 and the one I love most is my 81/110 with the Radius VideoVision Studio Setup. I liked its design so much that I snagged a N…

I like the 81/110 Radius, and I own one. Still the tape drive in the WGS 8150 is nice, but I have externals so backup is not a problem.

The Radius is the greater rarity. WGServers are no different than ordinary Macs of the day, though both (?) machines likely have an extra large L2 cache. If it's 1MB, the chip alo…
