Well, the CD/CD-RW functions work

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 upgraded and Hard Drive and DVD drive in mine, they are quite a pain to get you. B sure t…

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 …
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…

I'm shocked too. It is really quick with Panther. I just got the G3 450 up and running. I am running OS 9 on that one. I threw in 2…
I'm told by the person I got it from that she got all three machines from a friend who is a Mac tech who was just going to throw them out.
