The fan should not be loud. It sounds like the fan has become un-lubricated. ~ A year later it started up again so I just lubricated it myself. Anyway... lubricate the eMac fan, …

SCORE!!! Curb: PM G3 B&W!!! — #2

Seems like a RevB to me, I'll be able to stuff it with HDs and use it as a file server for my InsanelyWind projects. I can make a 68Kmla account on the FTP part of it if people wa…

Mac Classic corpse — #7

The classic/II seem to be difficult to find info on. When I was killing mine I could not find too much info.

Mac Classic corpse — #6

A circuit diagram for the analogue board of the Mac Classic would be a great help in tracing voltages. I can find one for the Mac SE on the web but not the Classic. Any suggestion…

How much can I get for my G5? — #28

I don't think it would be too hard to keep a PPC build of Camino and/or Firefox going, assuming they don't start loading it up with x86 assembly or something. As long as they don't…

How much can I get for my G5? — #26

The best native video card you can get for it is the 7800GT 256MB. I believe this was only ever sold as a BTO option on a new dual core G5 so they're quite hard to find. You can fl…

PC133 RAM - compatible with slot load iMacs? — #6

Just about the only kind of memory that doesn't work in a slot-loading iMac is "high density" stuff. You can get just about any crappy old double-sided 512 MB stick and put it in …
