If you must have PPC and more then 3 Nubus slots a 950 with a Daystar upgrade is the easier to get (then you get 4 free Nubus slots). I did this for my AVID systems. A 9150 would b…
I made it up into the attic a few weeks ago, and there are, indeed, three 91xxs in there. One of them seems to have some broken bits to the casing as the side panel doesn't want …
Oh yeah, I can't believe I forgot about that - the keyboard. Thats another thing I love about the 1400...it has one of the best laptop keyboards I've ever typed on, out of the hund…
They are amazingly durable, and you've got to love the keyboard. I am using mine less now that I have the Pismos, but I still love to type on them.
I always admired the Duos, neve…

My 1400 love also comes from nostalgia. It was my first laptop, a hand-me-down from my brother-in-law who said if I could fix it, I could have it. A new LCD and inverter later, it …
Personally, I love the 1400 series mostly because the 1400 was my first ever PowerBook, which I've had since new. While yes, they are very upgradable for a PowerBook, I have to adm…
Why would you be banned for talking positively about a 68k over a PPC, on a 68k-related board?
I fully agree. The 1400-series is interesting, sure... But the 68k's are where the…
I know I'm going to get banned for this, but:
I couldn't care less about the 1400s. Yes they were great machines, expandable, and all that. However I just don't like them for some…
My 540C actually had its little "PowerBook 540C" badge replaced with "PowerPC" so I'm thinking it used to have an official Apple PPC upgrade. Unfortunately, it's just 68k still
I'm going to go ahead and say yes, it does belong here, even though the Beige G3 is an Old World-based machine, it still originally shipped with a G3 processor, and thus it goes he…
The "lisp co-processor" runs its own operating system called "Genera" which is dramatically different from windows/unix derivatives like osx and windows. The operating system is to…
Note: I split the Apple II stuff off into a separate section. It's here now:

Use it to play Civilization! http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/demos_updates/civilizationiii.html
Or use it for chatting, surfing non-flash sites, iTunes, DVD watching, …
Are you referring to the "oldworld rom" or openfirmware, whatever its called?
Even though there is no AGP in these, I'd still put it in the G3 category because it is A) a G3 and …
Man I have a Amiga 4000 in my storage unit. Video Toaster boards, OS 3.9, the Flyer board and this card called the Farajouda (sp) card that provides S-Video in/out for the Toaster.…
I see the G4 iMac being a hot item someday too, but not the G5 and later, mostly because the designs are, in a sense, quite boring.

Same could be said for pr…
I think they'll get to be more of collectables after the following have happened:
1. G3s stop showing up in surplus lots. Right now, schools are still unloading them.
2. The gene…
