I sent the disks out on Friday. You should be getting them any time now. Run "Disk First Aid" located on the Disk Tools floppy to see if there are problems with the hard drive or…

What socket is it? /eta/ I decided to follow my own advice : It's Socket M Swapping a Core Solo CPU

I'd love to add a 512MB DIMM for it but the cost is a bit prohibitive. Click to expand... Check out macsales.com. Their prices are usually pretty good. I went there after sco…

I like IIcis so much that when I had the chance a couple years ago, I grabbed four of them. They had all been clustered together as some sort of server; I forget the specifics, but…

It probably isn't too difficult. You'll want to follow this guide, or one like it. http://blog.costan.us/2009/03/ubuntu-810-or-904-on-mac-mini.html It explains how to install an …

The PDS slot for the IIci and the LC PDS slot are two completely different interfaces, unfortunately. The Presto was also only made for the LC series.

I have a Presto 040 that came with an LC computer I bought. Were there two physically different cards for the LC and II series Macs? Or was it just one card, but had an adapter f…

I haven't tried installing any Linux on any Intel-based Mac just yet, but from what I've heard Ubuntu does use elilo as the boot loader on the Intel Macs. The only issues I've hea…

I've had a core solo Mini sitting around for a while, it's split between OS X & XP. I'd like to erase the OS X part and put Ubuntu on it instead. Is this possible? I've Goo…

I am trying to bring a Performa 200/M4150/Macintosh classic ii back to life. { "lightbox_close": "Close", "lightbox_next": "Next", "lightbox_previous": "Previous", …

I'd give them a call, that website looks as dodgy as hell (the "about us" doesn't even work). Unless you can confirm the place actually exists and has items in stock, beware. JB

Looks like they don't overcharge for shipping either. I'm getting a $7.50 shipping quote by mail to Australia for a Lombard DC/Sound board. Nice find!

It is surely going to be as safe as any online store, and it's likely safer than going the eBay route, but as it's only a hard drive cable, how much do you stand to lose?

Thanks Phreakout! I tried booting the SE/30 from a floppy while holding down the shift key, but that didn't do the trick. While I'm waiting for your OS disks, is there any method …

Interesting. Huh. Just for kicks, try rebooting again, but this time hold down the Shift key. This will prevent any extensions or the like from loading. If this doesn't wor…

OK guys, excellent suggestions. I have some good news and some bad news. The Macintosh Classic I have now is indeed a Classic 1. Following Phreakout's instructions, I successfully…

No, the issue at hand is that you're not supposed to change that extension (even if it seems as small as image. to img. no matter what. phreakout's suggestion is very good (I forg…

Dita, did you say earlier you have a Mac Classic, recently acquired? If so, is it a Classic 1 or Classic 2? If it's a Classic 1, then try the following: Step 1: Restart the Cla…
