iBook G3 500MHz Questions — #14
When you are booted from the OS 9 disk, have you tried opening up Drive Setup and Initialing the disk?
After that have you proceeded to tell the OS 9 installer to "Preform a clean …
$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #40
$50 is NOT resonable for a mac of such age. A 733MHz G4 tower maybe, but not a G3.

Yes, it's doing a basic RAM test. You can't do it on all Macs, but you can likely disable the startup memory test by holding down option + command (I think) when you double-click …

I plugged it in, like a kid on christmas expecting something extraordinary, and again NOTHING. So I decided to whip in a Mac IIfx ROM SIMM, remove the jumper, and see what happens…
$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #39
You can't really compare bulk lots to singles. Bulk lots are always cheaper because the seller is offloading the hassle of picking them up, sorting them and throwing out the dead …

$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #37
I agree with the other posts that $50 is way too much for most G3 iMacs. I couldn't get $20 for the slot load 350MHz one I had; ended up giving it to a small non-profit.
