> Am I the only one who doesn't mind using Windows? Yes. In fact I'd say you just risked getting stoned, and I don't mean like a hippy. I have Windows NT4 for the Powe…

If things fall through with the 1400, I'll consider it. Seems like there are a ton of resources out there for the 1400, but to my understanding, most of them apply to the 2400 as w…

Am I the only one who doesn't mind using Windows?

What about the Duo or 2400?

Well, if things turn out as planned, I will have a Powerbook 1400c (166mHz 64 RAM) and a Lucent WaveLAN silver. *me hopes school's WiFi allows WEP* EDIT: ...which is good sinc…

Yea, I use a silver and a bronze. You also need to make sure the hinges on old G3 laptops are good.

How about a PowerBook G3? That way, you'll be able to use a newer OS and printer with it. I have often run into a few issues with older systems and hardware/ software compatibility…

get a 3400. 5300's weren't the best ones ever.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! That crashing sound you hear is the sound of Windows breaking. No, I didn't throw my ThinkPad through one. Microsoft Windows ju…

No more than $50, if thats even possible. Will WaveLan silver work with WEP?

Batteries are going to be an issue since only brand new ones (on wallstreet G3s anyway) do 3 hours and used ones that still work will likely get you an hour or so. You can use 2 b…

I just need something that I can use at school, without worrying about it getting damaged or anything like that. I was thinking along the lines of a 3400C, or even a PowerBook G3. …

I just googled both variations of his name...this thread comes up as the first match for both. Click to expand... Nice work

All of Trash80toG4's threads on the subject were lost in the Great Crash. I just hope that one day he googlestalks himself and winds up back here, with all of his notes intact. Tra…

You are right, it isn't 2/3. I think it is 4/5AA, which you can get fairly readily. Check the measurement of the cells listed here against the originals when you open up the batter…

I tried re-celling mine with AA-sized, tabbed NiMh cells but could not make them fit. The OEM cells were smaller (2/3 AA, I believe you call them), and after a struggle, I located …

Paging Trash80toG4 ... where is that guy?? Click to expand... Wasn't he working on a G3 upgrade for the 2300? Click to expand... Well, he was researching it at least, readi…

Well then, that's not good. With any luck, it may just be a bad PMU; they were replaceable on those models, unlike the DVIs and later. Or it could be a random logic board failure.…

beachycove, I'm thinking of recelling the battery in mine too. I've got 48mb of RAM and a 1GB CF, and the machine works perfectly. Such a shame that I can't take it with with me …

Can I put a NuBus processor upgrade in my Dock II for use with my 2300c? / into the Cache/PDS slot Click to expand... Not without some serious dock connector/PDS hacking - even…

no go on that either - still solid amber on the power plug w/ no battery

This is likely an easy fault to fix. Simply remove the bottom case, move the DVDROM drive, and disconnect the PRAM battery (3-wire connector) from the PMU. Reassemble, and the mac…

I have another power brick at home, so I'll try that. The verbage was "If you can get this running, great. If not no big deal..."
