If you want to make a trip down to Deptford I have a B&W board with a 400mhz chip you can have for free. I have a power supply too if you want it.

Thanks for everyone's comments. I think I'm ready to pull the switch on this! I will check and see if they have the 240mhz board; but for $20 + ship, the 200 may be the most cost-e…

Thanks for all the info. Going to spend next weekend maxing out my Radius 81.

Good point, I had already tried it in the beige, though. It didn't seem break anything. I can't think of anything I did to mess up the B&W when installing the G4. When I w…

Ah yes, I forgot about the 240MHz model.

Haha, looks like I've been beat. Oh well, this thing is still quite a quirky toy. I've got a spare 80GB HDD and I figure, if I can ever find a cable for the external CD, I'll loa…

The other one I want is an early HP OmniBook 300. The early ones were fun, they had a 'pop-out mouse-on-a-stick' (the mouse was permanently attached via a moveable rod, it would s…

Or better yet, track down a board from a 3400/240, the fastest stock pre-G3 PowerBook ever. (or just track down a Kanga board)

While you have it apart, why not shoot for 225MHz? That would make it the fastest non-G3/G4 Powerbook ever

That Epson is win. Welcome to the retro netbook club

The very early sawtooth used the same psu as the B&W. Most sawtooths had two more pins on the connector.

The Gateway probably wins, hands-down, for combination of oldest and "netbook"; although it wasn't really possible to use it as a "netbook" when it was new. The roughly same age, …

I suppose it's just speaking the obvious to point out it'd probably be a bad idea to put that G4 module into your beige machine, unless you're willing to take the risk that it'll m…

congrats, it sounds like its a cool conquest, and a ton of fun, but... your going to have to go back abit further for "netbooks" http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Libret…

At this point, I'm at a bit of a loss about what to do. My two choices seem to be either to try and grab a cheap releacement motherboard (preferably a rev2 to replace the current r…

I can't see why not - it was never an official upgrade, but all the other parts should be the same.

Well I think I just found the answer, it is definitely due to size. These things are absolute barrels for the capacitance that we need. http://www.parts-express.com/wizards/searc…

My sincere apologies to you all if I haven't been getting back to you in a timely manner about shipping costs for sending work to me. Things are, as usual, hectic yet not too busy…

I use tape all the time for the vintage gear (archives).

Radius Rocks! I've been using their products since '87 and the one I love most is my 81/110 with the Radius VideoVision Studio Setup. I liked its design so much that I snagged a N…

I like the 81/110 Radius, and I own one. Still the tape drive in the WGS 8150 is nice, but I have externals so backup is not a problem.

The Radius is the greater rarity. WGServers are no different than ordinary Macs of the day, though both (?) machines likely have an extra large L2 cache. If it's 1MB, the chip alo…

I put the new 128MB module into my LC 575 and it registered fine, so I'll post the link if anyone else is interested. It's a darn good price, but there are only three left: http:/…

(I waited to post this until after I got back from vacation and could do some troubleshooting.) Just before leaving for CA, I received the G4, installed it in the B&W, and…
