I used to see tons of these on curbs. Back when I wasnt into collecting computers. This one was manafactured in 9/8/98.
I check the system profiler and it says 2 MB of SGRAM.
I l…
I like the puck mouse too. Still use a few on occasion actually too. As for whether or not the Rev. A iMac is rare, I doubt it. Pretty sure those things sold REALLY well back in…
I have spotted this one for a while. It was finally brought to me today. Its in like mint condition! Perfectly white where it need to be, and a really nice CRT. The admin that I wo…
Guess not? Well take a gander at the piccies and decide if it's worth looking into:
Here are the unimplemented pads on the DuoDock II MLB:
Here is a shot of the Duo MiniDock's …
. . . since you've got the 300 Mhz board in the 5400, there's nothing that the 6500 really has to offer that the 5400 doesn't, apart from a tower enclosure, one extra PCI slot, …
After a long an arduous few hours of almost totally dismantling the 500 just to replace the hard disk and putting it back together it worked. Briefly.
The problem now is the scree…
I believe it is a Mitsubishi Diamondtron CRT, but I don't know if you can just yank one out of a Mitsubishi model or not. And again - there's a good chance that the Mitsubishi has …

I was looking at my shot of the Dock II MLB this morning and five unimplemented IC pads jumped off the board & bit me on the . . .
The four most interesting are for 28 …
The flyback transformer (FBT), also called a 'line output transformer' (LOPT), is a special transformer which is used to generate high voltage (HV) signals at a relatively high fre…
That way the secondary PSU powers on at the same time as the SE/30 does -- all with the flip of the same switch you are accustomed to, on the back of the SE/30.

I looked at a bunch of bad backlit portable mobos for Houlton, and all of them had problems with the 5V power regulator, as does my own 5126. Apparently the integrated voltage refe…
The 83 MHz bus is not entirely stable.
Assuming a 400 MHz G3 chip is installed then the G3 chip is not overclocked, just the bus.
Look up the jumper settings and downclock the bu…

Sorry about the delay, I got distracted when I went to boot it up. I do not know what happened(and it happened while it was not in use for the past couple years) but now the fan ru…
Definitely keep the 5400 - its a black 5400, and they're very hard to come by these days, especially in good condition, with the matching black keyboard and mouse. You can pick up …
... I believe the black 5400 is an Australian only special, but what machine would you keep - and why?

I have a soft spot for towers, but the 6500's case has…
I purchased that PSU from Jameco by the way. It wasn't anything special. I bought it specifically to drive my internal 7200rpm hard drive, lessening the load on the stock SE/30 P…
It is most certainly possible - 9 years ago I was running dual hard drives inside my LCII, if you can do it with an LCII you can definitely do it with an SE/30, or indeed any other…
The Flyback is not a direct "Apple Replacement Part". The only thing close, would be the entire analog board as a service part. Any old stock has probably been depleted or recycled…
