$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #4

I bought a 6 or 700mhz imac for 20 or so bucks with hd/etc... I'd be firm with an offer of 30 since after all it is 10 bucks more than they are saying the recyclers would give them…

$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #3

It's going to be given to a friend as an upgrade to an original bondi iMac which I gave him a few years back. He doesn't know that he's getting it though. It's sort of a late-Chris…

$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #2

Seems a bit steep to me, unless it's in museum condition. The real question is: is it worth it to you? If the $50 won't lead to starvation and the iMac is something you'd get any u…

$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #1

The campus PC repair shop has a "scrap pile" of old machines, mostly PCs, which are destined for the recycler. In the past year, I have purchased a desktop G3 and a 20" Apple Color…

High ho, Quicksilver! — #13

Yeah, I tried that, too. The WaveLAN card can be sort-of forced to fit in a clamshell iBook; and fits with some fiddling in a gumdrop iMac, but not in a PowerMac.

Orinoco Wavelan out of a dead APBS Click to expand... I tried the same in my sawtooth and MDD - one problem you'll consistently run into is the fact that the black plastic anten…

High ho, Quicksilver! — #11

So the HD in the Cube fell over and died, forcing me to upgrade to my new silver tower of G4 awesome. I picked up a 200GB Seagate HD from a friend, made three partitions (X, 9 and…

asking for opinion: WGS 8150 vs. Radius 81/110 — #11

If you have the SA4 Protools Audio Card installed then yes, it will only connect to the 442 interface and not the 888. If you have the even older SoundTools audio card, then the o…

I have started the upgrade, almost finished but ran into a snag. I can not get it to recognize the G3 card and when installed it will only startup with extensions off. The card i…

Hooper Parts Source? — #8

I ordered a new keyboard for my Kanga from powerbookguy.com. They seem to have a pretty good inventory of Kanga/3400 parts.

Need some help with a Kanga — #7

Based on the other Kanga I have, I've determined that this one's issue has to be the backup battery. One Kanga boots from battery and keeps proper time. The other one does neither.…

LC III+ or Classic II? — #6

The Classic II will also run (a special version of) System 6, under which it runs very fast indeed. Click to expand... That's 6.0.8L, correct? Where does one find this version?…

LC III+ or Classic II? — #5

and can pick up even more power if you spring for an external floppy drive (usually less than $20 on eBay) Click to expand... On the other hand, so is an extra SCSI hard drive

LC III+ or Classic II? — #4

I'd put the hard drive inside the LCIII+ since you're more likely to run programs that require system additions such as QuickTime on it. Additionally, if you don't have the System …
