I have a variety of PCI Macs from c. 1995-97, which (excluding my beige G3s, which are PCI too, of course) comprise a 6500, 7200, 7500, 8600/200MP, 2 x 8600/300, and a 9500. I also…

If I could get my 9500 working again, I'd sure be interested in it.

Yes - love my 9600 here, still packs a punch. Cheap to upgrade and max out if you take time searching for parts. Problem was of course, the vast amount of machines and similar mo…

Is there much interest in PCI Powermacs these days? Seems like 68K Compacts and Quadras are still popular, and G4 towers and newer are also, what about the 6x00, 7500-9600?

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…

That's about in line with average prices, considering I bought a dual 2.7 G5 for $550 on eBay sans video card and HDD. Whoever was saying 1500 was way out. You can get an early M…

and actually, I think I may have a (unknown working condition) spare! 8-o This is turning out to be just awesome.

There aren't any. Cardbus requires a PCI-based motherboard, and the 1400 is Nubus based.

It's a powered accept/eject mechanism, like a VCR, so yeah, it does. Luckily 99% of the time it's just one cap that's blown

The logic board has circuitry that divides the clock signal in half. I would need to supply a 16MHz clock to the logic board in order to run the processor at 8 MHz.

It could well be, see here for the Duo Dock "click of death" and route of repair: http://www.sci.ccny.cuny.edu/%7Ecleary/computers/duo.html ... if you're new to soldering, I'd pr…

Hmm... does the bad PSU problem prevent the Duo from being loaded into the Dock? I honestly didn't know that. :scrambled: Oh well; I'm about to start being able to solder, so i…

Nice haul - the 7100 is such a solid piece of kit, getting to RAM slots a pain though! The Duo Dock could be suffering from the common bad power supply problem, or it could be the…

Ebay seller macmetex is still stocking the 540c 33MHz CPU modules for like a buck for two. They're a drop-in replacement, and he's a reliable guy.

I hate to bring this back up Click to expand... No, please do. I'm looking forward to further updates on this project. what other effects would I see by bumping up the …

Browsing on the 1400 when connecting with an Ethernet card via the PC Card slot is always going to be slow, because it is a 16 bit card cage. I know there is an internal ethernet …

I hate to bring this back up, but I have a couple of questions I hope can be answered. Since the frequency is related to baud rates and the serial ports are really all but useless…

Already have most of those bases covered. The PB was already upgraded to 20MB when I bought it used in 2000. Also have the 10baseT transciever and an external 4X SCSI drive with th…

Cool! Any ideas on what else you are gonna do with it? I turned mine into a webserver: http://coius.info:8080/ I would suggest, max out the RAM, fine an external CD-ROM drive, a…

I booted-up the old PB 520c last night - still working fine (except for the 5 minute battery life). I cracked open a copy of Mac Attack, which I bought at a clearance sale for $2.9…

I have a couple of 512MB PC133 sticks in my G3 500 DV iMac. It works.

The 512MB stick in my Summer 2001 iMac is PC133 . No problems. It's paired with a 128MB stick of PC100 I think.
