Kudos to you for putting your older machines back on Freecycle and sharing the wealth! M

I think it's funny (the BSoD thing, that is). It harkens back to Apple's evangelist past, and it shows that even a major corporation can have a sense of humor. I'm sure that in 1…

Hahah, an installfest. Anyway, looks like a sweet time...i wish i could've gone to a Leopard party..but y'know, i live in the middle of nowhere, have no car, and...well...yeah.…

I got the G3 400 up and running. Since I made out so well on this deal I think it will go back up on Freecycle along with my AIO G3 and another BW 400 I have. I'll definitely kee…

Here's an update... I cracked it open... 1 of the IC's was cocked a pretty good bit out of its socket. Even when I pushed it in and checked the rest of them, STILL no joy. I left i…

I got a Leopard T-shirt too in Glasgow! I was lucky as they ran out very shortly after I went in the door. There was actually a queue down Buchanan Street when I arrived and the st…

The BSoD thing is almost as good as Steve calling it Winders during a keynote. The only Apple shirt I have is from the 12 Oaks Apple Store opening in Novi, Michigan. I was #31 …

I like the BSoD thing.

Wooo! Just got back from the Apple Store and I got a Leopard T-shirt! So even though I can't have Leopard, I've still got the T-shirt! My G3 cried when it saw the T-shirt from t…

Who tosses a dually? A bonehead who doesn't know what he's got. :-/ Glad that you were able to salvage both the G3 and the dually G4.

Who tosses a dualie?! Click to expand... I'm shocked too. It is really quick with Panther. I just got the G3 450 up and running. I am running OS 9 on that one. I threw in 2…

Who tosses a dualie?! Click to expand... They could toss one my way - I wouldn't complain!

I'm told by the person I got it from that she got all three machines from a friend who is a Mac tech who was just going to throw them out. Click to expand... Who tosses a duali…

wow I wish there were free g3 powerbooks around here! congrats on the awesome conquest! Click to expand... Don't worry. Your not the only one :'( . Though I would run across …

The new logic for the Lombard and the RAM for both machines arrived today. I've got a good deal pending on a pair of 80GB Seagates, and a slot-loading Combo drive for the Lombard …

Nice work

The 450 DP is up and I am posting this using it. I found two 256mb dimms in the G3s and added two 128mb sticks for 768 total. I put in a 10gb 7200pm Deskstar drive in it that had…

I find that too plus you get more than a request, you get their life story and how much they need your box of random PC parts or empty/scratched AT case. Anyone have a similar expe…

The G4 is a 450 dual processor. Click to expand... *goes off and cries in a corner* Wow, two days before Leopard's release and you get a Mac that can run it, probably prett…

I picked them up today. They all work. The G3s are 400 and 450. The G4 is a 450 dual processor. The G3s have ram and hard drives. This should keep me busy for a while. They a…

Around here when a computer is posted for free the poser gets swarmed with 20 emails in 5 minutes.... your lucky to get the g3s/g4! Hope they all work out for you.... Click to e…

POWER SUPPLY says the former Commodore salesperson/support person. Assuming everything is otherwise hooked up correctly.

There's not much in a VIC-20, so there's not much that can go seriously wrong. Check the usual easy stuff first -- do a careful visual inspection of the logic board. The 6502 a…
