My two daily driver lappies are a 12" 1.33GHz iBook G4 and an 867MHz TiBook. The iBook is solid and I really like the size.

Yes, that's it. But don't you use a miter to follow the edge and cut it? Maybe I was thinking of a router. Crap. Shows how much I know about what I'm doing. :lol: Click to …

Luckily, it hasnt done it again, but i am not going to plug the other one in for safe measures. However, i noticed when you turn the power on to the unit, it bongs and starts righ…

you might want to take a look lowes has these little clear rubbery stick pads for like 2-3bucks for 12 of em or something. Decently styleish and will serve your purpose well.

I think you mean "rabbet" the edge . . . . . . as that's the name for the joint you've done in ASCII art (nice job, btw [] ]'&gt if I'm interpreting it correctly. …

Would anyone be willing to work on cap replacement on Mac Plus analog boards? If not I may just have to teach myself how to fix these things and start a service of my own. I love…

Looks very good, have you got "before" piccies?Which part do you need to mitre? :?: Click to expand... No before pictures, sorry. The LC 575 bezel is pretty different than t…

And they're back Nice work there.

Make sure you post plenty of pics along the way!

Images are down?

Take it apart, go buy a tub of Oxiclean, and deyellow that poor machine at once! (If you can spend 2 hours dremeling the bezel, you can spend a day deyellowing it.) Click to expa…

The powersupply is in another box. But it is down there too! I am hoping to keep everything looking almost normal on the Sawtooth case. Will get all the parts together over the …

Sounds like you shouldn't fire them up again until one of our resident flyback gurus passes judgment! :-/

Heck yeah, why not? Have a good look at some of the iMac and ATX-cased Mac hacks around the web. Do you have the original eMac power supply? That will save a lot of hassle.

In that case, the only other variable is the fact that the G3/500 is a copper one, though I don't remember if that introduced any performance enhancements, per se. Based on what I…

Yeah, that was my thought at first, but there aren't any caps right near where the apparent leakage is. And the closest one looks just fine. Also, I would have thought that leaky…

I went ahead and downloaded the XLR8 firmware block remover. I assume it also works for non-XLR8 G4's. The G3/500 is a Buffalo (Melco) HG3-G3500 with 1mb cache running at 250mhz…
