My just-new one with 512k RAM and a 400ghz processor runs Tiger quite nicely. Only trouble I've had is with Word 98 running in classic mode - had to get something to word process i…

Fremont Fry's also has 1/2 AA 3.6v batteries. San Jose Fry's does not carry them.

Beachycove, I have a Pismo (see signature) running OS X 10.4.11 perfectly fine. It performs quite well with Tiger, although I'm planning on dropping it down to Panther (10.3.x) d…

How well does a Pismo function under X? I have two Pismo parts machines and am pondering spending some money ($100 or so) on a battery and memory to make a single low-end (probably…

and since it's just two leads, it'd be hard to screw up. Click to expand... not that hard, that capacitor is polarized, so it needs to go the right way in, its also smt which c…

Could you post some piccies of the SE in the Plus body?

Aiiiii! Not sure that's a good idea at all. Pulling air from the top could interfere with exhausting air from the inside as well as draw in higher warmer air in the room, and theor…

Keep the drive partitioned in 2GB chunks and you will be compatible even with System 6. My IBM DGHS is 4.5GB. I divided it up so System 6.0.8 could see all the files on all parti…

If you get a chime, then you just need a battery. If you don't, then you do need to solder that capacitor back. Soldering isn't hard to learn at all, and since it's just two leads…

Yup, it needs a working battery to start in normal cases. You can try turning it on, and doing a quick off/on flick on the PSU. That should give it video without the battery. If yo…
