3400 board question... — #3

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

Sawtooth in a B&W case — #2

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

Sawtooth in a B&W case — #1

Anybody ever try putting a Sawtooth motherboard in a B&W case? Since it looks like the motherboard in my B&W is dead, I'm thinking it would make more sense just to…

G3/500 vs. G4/400 in B&W — #9

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…

G3/500 vs. G4/400 in B&W — #8

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…

3400 board question... — #2

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

Mylar Capacitors — #2

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…

I am about to replace my old leaky caps on my IIci but before I go ahead and order them from Trag I wanted to see if anyone knew whether or not mylar capacitors might be an option …

asking for opinion: WGS 8150 vs. Radius 81/110 — #4

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…

asking for opinion: WGS 8150 vs. Radius 81/110 — #2

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…

Boxed Quadra 605 and 14" Apple CRT! — #9

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:/…

asking for opinion: WGS 8150 vs. Radius 81/110 — #1

I have both of these, but only enough parts to max out one of them. The positives I see: Radius has internal fast SCSI and integrated video. WGS 8150 has a tape drive, is a bit …

G3/500 vs. G4/400 in B&W — #7

IIci - Bringing back my 1st Mac — #19

Any ideas on the spontaneous bootup and the lack of "influence" via the ADB? Could the power supply also have issues? I do have a spare but it is about the exact age as the other…

Workgroup Server 7350 Restore Disc? — #2

Oh, the WGS is the 'hub' of my new testbench. I have an AAUI-to-10BaseT adapter that has a built-in 3 port hub connected (so I don't need a dedicated hub on the testbench,) and ha…

Workgroup Server 7350 Restore Disc? — #1

So I just dug my Workgroup Server 7350 out of storage, and wanted to turn it into an actual production server again. Turns out the hard drive toasted itself. So I swapped in a ne…

A Tech Notice for all PCI-based Macintoshes — #3

Haven't noticed anything like that with my two 7300s. They see regular use, however (one is always running and the other is used a lot), so I don't know if that has anything to do …
