Already have most of those bases covered. The PB was already upgraded to 20MB when I bought it used in 2000. Also have the 10baseT transciever and an external 4X SCSI drive with th…

Cool! Any ideas on what else you are gonna do with it? I turned mine into a webserver: http://coius.info:8080/ I would suggest, max out the RAM, fine an external CD-ROM drive, a…

WannaBe is great to use with the Orinoco card - much faster than IE or Netscape in the 1400. I've enjoyed using it! Soon, I hope to try double-stacking my RAM cards to get one of t…

The noise issue is a common complaint... I used my 700MHz eMac for occasional recording and solved the problem quite easily by hanging a thick fuzzy towel on the wall behind it.

Oh GAWD. My 700mhz eMac wails like a get being sent through a wood chipper! (Not really but you get the idea... :rambo: ) I must admit the 1.25 ghz leaky caps one in the lab s…

eMacs are loud? WTF? Every single eMac I have ever used (it's got to be over 50 by now) has been very quiet. These are mostly 1.25 and 1.42 GHz, so maybe the older models were dif…

That's about the standard price for kits that I've seen on ebay - or even less! And as they mostly ship from Hong Kong or mainland China, it ends up cheaper for us southerners. I…

Yes, the hdd is on the sled. But I resolved the issue by breaking off the plastic tab. So the front bezel is back on, hooked on by the remaining plastic tab on the left side. No…

Nicely done! A 1MB cache for a 6/7/8100 is my parts "Eleanor"

You'll pay through the nose at Wegener. No offense to them - it's the same at most of the retails webstores for old parts. Best to post a want ad in the Trading Post here.

Tiger can run on it, even if it only has a 250mhz G3 and 160mb RAM. It still can run on Kangas.

Check with www.ifixit.com. They are one other good source for help on PB1400 laptops. 73s de Phreakout. :rambo:

Is the HDD on the sled? If it is, try putting it in without the sled. It might be an odd-dimensions hard drive, therefore it sticks out a bit. Not every HDD was made to fit into…

Classic - Do you have a link for downloading the WannaBe browser? I'd like to give that a try if it would keep other content from trying to load... I wanted to try it with the 1400…

Classic - I found the download site for WannaBe, so I got that ok. Thanks! Will give it a try.

I got one of these for my 7300 back in the day. They really do make a difference and they did indeed cost a fortune when they were new. For $5 it's a great deal - and a cool colle…

My browser preference is obvious but WannaBe works very well on the 1400 as a text browser. Really, though, my 1400 got much more useful when I put a G3 and RAM Doubler on it. …

Now I can't put the front bezel back on! This really bugs me! The stupid plastic tab has nowhere to go but to cut into the hdd power cable, it's gonna cut the power cable if I pr…

Glad you got it sorted. Sounds pretty kickass.

It turned out be a flaky floppy drive. I got it fixed and now I am running DOS 6.22, Windows for Workgroup 3.11 and Windows 95 all on the Peforma, side by side with System 7.6.1 …

just to clarify anything that might be unclear, the iMac was $20, not $200 (i did not forget a 0) and (so far, so good! no more trouble w/visa } ) Click to expand... …

i installed it w/o any languages, Asian fonts, printer drivers, etc. and it still has a 1gb+ left

Have you seen this? A T-amp kit for $20: http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=300-385

Very nice. I am a little surprised that 10.3.9 fit with some extra space on a 3GB HD. I find anything with OS X needs at a minimum a 10GB to be fully functional.
