Well, I do think the Retr0brite is a good idea for the case. Are you going to recap the board or send them off? If you're doing it, wash the logic board at least. I've never had s…

the only thing that cuts through that nasty is 91% IPA.

I've recently relocated my Color Classic from my mom's house, where it's lived happily since 1993 choking on cigarette smoke. I think it is going to need a recapping, and the 160m…

The word on the vine was that Rocketchip had a few bugs. though I've personally never encountered them.

Just opened up both my IIc's thinking that I would have a 256K RAM Upgrade in one of them. The cleaner (and older) of the two (little case yellowing on it) was just a plain 128K II…

Yes, you can swap that over no prob. I forget if I did, but I may have done the same from a IIx. With my 030 upgrade, it really did not matter in the end since I had to pull the ch…

@ unity, ok i took the board out and counted it, i have the 132 pins or a 13x13 row setup.  I doubled checked and they are soldered through.  One thing though, if this originally i…

The Clamshell might work if it is the same size. The G3 iBook wont work because the plug is too small.

If the plug fits it will work.

Can I use the replacement power brick for my Dual USB "Snow" iBook G3 (700MHz I think, from GainSaver) for the PowerBook, or must I buy a replacement 1400c(s) power supply from eBa…

Some brands of media were crap also. Lots of burn errors on generic and the like. Slower write speeds helped.

I have the Apple 600i CD reader and 2 CD Burners (one from Ricoh and the other from who knows...) all can read 700mb media and the burners can burn 700MB. It's just that last coupl…

I gave up and gave the board to a friend who has professional equipment for removing things like chips. The right equipment does a nice job without the damage I would do.

was it tough getting that old filter out buddy?

Couldn't have done it without your help!

cool u da man!!!

Hmm... I'll have to see what it says on the door when I get it. I don't mind using CD-Rs for now. It would be nice to have CD-RW capability though. Edit: In the eBay picture, the C…

BMOW, I don't recall if it happened when I booted from the floppy. It did happen when booted from an external drive though.

Sorry Indidnt take a photo, but Rlfen described it correctly. I can't take a photo now, because the problem has been fixed. Thanks to C and uniserver, Bourne filters have been rep…

put it in a room with Air conditioning, or a dehumidifier. 

let it run for a couple hours.. it should go away.

After about 30 minutes in, it began popping more consistently and frequently. About two minutes between each pop. What is the process for testing a flyback?

yeah if its still doing it after a couple hours, then it might be the flyback doing something that it shouldnt.
