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…

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…

CD-ROM Readers have a difficult time reading CD-RW Disks, but a CD-ROM Writers can read them easily if the support the CDRW+ format. Not all older CD Writers have CDRW+. If it does…

OK, I'll pay the extra US$30 to get the floppy module. My PowerBook 1400cs/166 has the CD module already in it. I'll also get a HDI-30 to 25-pin SCSI adaptor so I can Use SCSI D…

yup i sifted through the bull, and found this post, as trag mentioned they have got to it first. the issue looks most likely caps.   and it looks like they can (with this psu) be …

OVERVIEW A limited number of Macintosh II CPUs were manufactured with an HMMU-unique socket that does not allow the CPU to function properly if a PMMU upgrade is installed.  Custom…

I said that up top. Recalled because of a socket issue. The four chips to the lower right, see those? The black upper right one comes in versions that have different pin layouts un…

just an update havent had too much time to look into the power supply further.  But one thing, i did stumble across a site called atxg4.  He has adapters to use atx ps in g4's. He …

to uniserver, the board in the top pic is the one i am currently working on, its the working one.  On the other mac II i have the board pictured on the bottom.  One thing though, i…

If you can get both yes. I have a 2GB CF in a PCMCIA Adapter which I copied the System 7.6.1 on my 5300ce as a back up drive, and tried it on my 1400/133 & 166. They both …

Ya, but I am just making a list of models. Im not interested in motherboard variations, etc.

unity said: I could be wrong. I just have never seen a model like M0001EP or M0001AP, etc. I could put them into the list proper, but that would add a few lines for sure!  …

Should I purchase a floppy module as well as the CD module?

YAY!
