I started to strip it for parts, but I noticed some weird things.
For starters, both the bucket and the bezel stickers a…

Let me start off by saying I am not a computer guy...... So this is probably why no one has done this before. They know it will not work!
I have working pull of a analog boa…
Can it work? I have a Reply card in my Q800's PDS slot and I am seeing Orange DOS card on eBay (nubus) that will fit in my Mac. Can 2 or more DOS card work together?
So, I am still chicken about doing the VGA mod to my Color Classic. But I am OK doing the software mod that will let me put a over clocked 575 logic board in my Color Classic.

I picked up a Mac Classic (2MB, 40MB HD) and it was immediately subjected to a recap. As part of that process, I cleaned around the old cap areas with alcohol and re-tinnned the p…

Hi folks...
Looking around on ebay, I saw a inexpensive smaller Mac called a Power Mac G4 Cube. It has no monitor. I would only be interested in a mod using this if I could some…
Hi...
My TV is the very last CRT HD Sony TV. Deep, deep blacks, and pure whites. Yes, it is only HDMI 1.1, but I love the 1920 X 1080p picture. No motion artifacts.

Done some forum searching and googling, but not turned up a cap list. So I can order them in and not open up my PB170 more than once, does anyone have a cap list they can share?

Hello...
I thought I would start a new tread just on the 640 X 480 Mysic mod for the Color Classic. I have counted four different mods.

Hi folks....
I just bought a MC68882FN33A FPU for my Color Classic II logic board. I think the "33" at the end of the Motorola model number means that it runs at 33Mhz. (?)

It just shows static when you turn it on, si…

There was a lot advertised on newton talk today. Someone had been looking for a battery case. He may have one. But it looks like he only wants to sell the lot.

What kind of speeds are you getting when copying files from/to the SATA drive? Even if I copy a file from one location to another on the same SSD drive, I get like 2-3MB/sec. I tho…
