Paging Trash80toG4 ... where is that guy?? Click to expand... My alternative idea was trying to pin-map the docking bar to a PDS of some sort and mounting it inside a MiniDock.…

whereas older lappys, such as say, my 1400 have, well, a much more civilised size trackpad. Click to expand... Substitute "barely housebroken" for "civilized" and you'll . . …

As much as I hate inkjet printers (its ok, the plotter makes up for that ), it sounds like quite a setup. Speaking of trackballs, as much as I used to like putridpads a few ye…

This "ADB peripheral" wouldn't happen to be that Paladin keyboard would it? Click to expand... HEH! You betcha! Adapting some young whippersnapper of a PB to royalty of periphe…

I have heard that later Powerbooks, into the early G4 series even, used ADB internally for the trackpad. What would be involved in hooking into that, I have no idea. Click to e…

Now that's service! This is almost like the old days here & on 'fritter . . . . . . ask a question-n-have an answer posted lickety-split! There were no Po…

There were no PowerBooks made that had both ADB and USB from the factory (the only Mac that can claim that honour is the Blue and White G3). However, you can add a USB CardBus card…

. . . were any ever made? . . . or were USB cards made for a PB with ADB already on it? I'll admit to getting lazier w/age, but I topped out on the 1400c & don't ha…

I've got another question, this time about CF cards as HDs. I've been reading about wear-leveling and the speculation by some that with daily use the card would be toast after a fe…

Excellent. Thanks for the information, beachycove. It looks like I'll have a fun project next weekend.

... how did you install the OS onto the CF card in your 2300c? I am away from its DuoDock II and have no external CD drive, so I was thinking I would put it into a PCMCIA adapter a…

Thank you all for your replies. Part of my challenge for the 3400 is to keep the drive small since I like System 7 and it doesn't like large drives (unless they're partitioned), bu…

IIRC, that was a problem with specific drives in the 30-40 GB (that size only because that was current in '03/'04) range for the 2400c, 3400c, Kanga, and Wallstreets. OWC had a pa…

I certainly could not get an ATA-6 drive to work in a 2400c recently, and had to downgrade to an older drive that I had to do some hunting to find (as it needed to be quiet). The 2…

I know these Duos are IDE and SCSI- would that cause an issue for this mod? Click to expand... In it's stock config, the 2300c uses an IDE hard disk - I've put a 10GB in mine. …

The 3400 should theoretically be able to use any HDD under 120GB. It should even be able to use HDDs over 120GB, just that it'll only recognise the first 128GB.

I come bearing hard drive questions. I need to put a new HD in my 3400c, but I recall hearing once that some ATA-6 drives don't work with that series, does anyone have more data on…

I leave the keys around the space bar (generally the open-apple and closed-apple keys) off until I get the space bar on. That leaves some room for fiddling the metal bar on. The ba…

I just washed all of my IIe's keys. All of them went back fine except the space bar. I do not know how to put it back on. How do you do it? Click to expand... I'm going from me…

I was just looking around for someone interested in a Voodoo 2 card for the Mez slot of a Bondi iMac and found these posts. I heard it was disabled with the 1.2 firmware "update." …

Hi, I will leave you a PM just a bit easier that way. Since I do not always log in here. Take Care

Thou sayest sooth. I misappreciated Byrd's difficulty. The sideslot accepts the bent ribbon-cable by forcefit, and it is only logical to expect that it can be removed with force.…
