I had a Lombard 333 which amazingly overclocked to 433Mhz Click to expand... As Keanu says ... "Woah" Details?

Oh crap. What's the key combo to force OS 9 on startup?

Oh what the hell. I just ordered the 400MHz DVD playing logic board. $44 US inc shipping, and the $AU is 90c at the moment.

Damn you!! I *love* the G3 PowerBooks and clamshells, all that G3 awesomeness wrapped up in such gorgeous cases - how do you guys keep finding them for free when I can't find an…

you "might" be able to do it with vlc on the os x side, im not sure tho.

Heh. Multiple cash transfers to banks in Vanuatu, the Cayman Islands, and the Channel Islands. People really should learn to zero their hard drives.

OK, I just realised I'm complaining about a free Lombard. I'm going to go find a large halibut so I can slap myself with it.

I'm pretty sure the G4 upgrades are for Pismos only Bunsen Click to expand... Daystar have a G4 for Lombards, but it's $299. Yeowch

I think of the Lombard as being the ultimate 'book suitable for use with old and new Macs - the inclusion of SCSI a big plus. I'm pretty sure the G4 upgrades are for Pismos only B…

Yeah. After looking at the specs on Lowendmac, I'm wondering how well I scored here. only one PC Card slot, and no ADB port. Although the 333 MHz Lombard has a faster clock…

Nice score B! Our luck seems to be high this week, I scored a PB Ti 867 = $0. Given to me as "dead motherboard", two minutes later with my iBook adapter = 100% working Mac. It's…

Just picked up a Lombard 333 Powerbook and a Tangerine iBook 300 = $0. The Lombard has 128MB/4G/CD -no DVD decoder- and the iBook 64MB/6G. Both in perfect working order. I've gi…

Duo Keyboards are notoriously crap. I've owned 3 Duo's (270, 280, 2300) and the keyboards were crap on all of them. My 2300, the only Duo I still have, has the wrist rest from an …

Hi Bunsen, Hey Macd: what did "a little persistence" consist of? Just lots of pounding, or the whole strip down and clean routine? Click to expand... A bit of both. Mo…

Bottom case and hard drive from a 280Logic board from a 230 keyboard and display from a 210 Click to expand... Give my creation .... LIFE!!! {insert thunder crack} Hey Macd: …

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. ...and the keyboard is the worst example of a Duo I've ever used. It's never a good thing when one must pound or continually press t…

With the purchase of this curiosity, I feel that it may be time to re-think the whole eBay thing. This machine was advertised as a Duo 280. I figured cool, I don't have one of tho…

Wow.... Wanna give one now? No, really, I'll come get it

Snagged a Q950 this morning for free, 90MB RAM, 3 HDs but the largest is only 1GB. The unit is in very good condition. Also snagged a Supermac GDM-1950 STD 9790 Trinitron 19" Colo…

A "local" guy (meaning: within 24 hours drive, and in the same country...) has made me an offer I can't refuse for my non-working A4000. So I have a couple $ to spend upgrading my…

The green screen is fairly logical, as Amiga's won't start without ChipRAM The 4000 doesn't need a battery to work, mine's never had one (I got the guy I bought it off to remov…

Grumble. No luck getting any life out of this thing (despite all the helpful guys here and on other forums). She's parts I'm afraid. I'll just have to stick with my 1200 for the ti…

Hehe, yes, I already have some too (and absolutely loads of NT 4 Workstations!), but you can never have too many But if it was a copy of Windows Me, now that would be something!…

Apple stickers would excite you more than a 17 gig SCSI HDD or a copy of AppleShare Server 3? :O Click to expand... Or a real, bona-fide copy of Windows 95?! :O Click to e…

Apple stickers would excite you more than a 17 gig SCSI HDD or a copy of AppleShare Server 3? :O Click to expand... For about the first five minutes, yes After that, then.…
