Holy hell...not one, not two, but FOUR 900 series Quadras! Great score...10 euros a pop, not bad, especially with the bits they have. As for the WGS 95, I'd say someone's cherry p…

Not sure if I mentioned, but I'm willing to give any logic board a shot, not just SE/30s. If you have IIfx or different with caps needing replacing, I'll give it my best. PM me a…

that's counter intuitive but makes since |) Click to expand... Me too, you would think if something might break, the last thing you would want to do is put and leave any kin…

That attaching band is built in as part of the CRT isn't it? I would think any replacement you get will have one included. Click to expand... Yep. Proper replacements come wit…

A B&W is a new world ROM Mac so it doesn't have the 8GB limit, but it does have a 128GB limit to a HD on the internal controller. A rev 1 ATA controller chip will be flaky …

The metal band around the CRT is more than a means to secure the four corner mounting lugs. It is an implosion resisting band applied and tensioned by the CRT manufacturer to many …

Very nice, I love the 950 series (have 5 myself). Odd seeing a real WGS95 without the DAT drive, did it still have the PDS SCSI card installed and the optional 5 drive tray? You a…

Does your replacement CRT lack a band or something? Click to expand... I don't have a replacement CRT but I want to save the frame and attaching band in case I find one that do…

Since it appears you have a dvd drive here is a link to Suse for the last supported build.. I've not installed this particular build, but looks like I need to try it out since it'…

Trag, I would also include the backup system AMANDA for Linux in your statement. Even though there are tutorials and how-tos to get this system up and running claimed in 15 mins..…

I suppose that might make me fire up the se/30 in the garage.. I really need to bring all my macs inside the basement... I had a climate controlled storage area that I recently qui…

Very Very nice Conquest there! Those are worthy of MY basement } The Thunder II card with the dsps are very nice in this class of machine as well. With 256megs of ram I bet i…

Well, that certainly makes sense. That would sound like a video card fail in OSX. I really need to install my bigger hd in the b&w and set things up much better to my lik…

NICE!

That's ... awesome! I know you've had trouble finding old Macs near you, which makes it doubly awesome. How did you find these?

As quinterro said, you won't be able to start any PowerPC Mac up off that disc, thats for an Intel PC system. You want a version of Linux thats built for use on a PowerPC, which wi…

The ISO that you downloaded is for Intel processors. It won't work on PPC systems.

Well what are you waiting for?! Get started on your super-computing cluster!

WGS 95 has 48 RAM, Q950 has PPC upgrade 601-100 MHz, full 256 RAM, the other two didn't boot, one had sad bong and other probably PSU problem.

Now days they seem to teach Javascript or some such as a beginning language which is probably more applicable to today's life, but I doubt that it is an easier introduction than Ba…

Under 24 bit addressing there is 1M of address space assigned to each Slot. Does that mean that a video card would be limited to 1 MB of VRAM when using 24 bit addressing? Or i…

Asked in 2004 what Apple should do next, Jef Raskin replied, "Turn out a good interface." Amen, I say. After nearly ten years of using the damn thing daily, I still can't find my w…
