I do own a CC, but it's currently in shambles; everything it displays lacks the color red... Click to expand... Had the same issue - resoldered the wires going to the yoke, and…

Is it mine? I wish it were I don't know why the seller never upgraded the resolution. He may have wanted to keep it stock, or never wanted to risk a soldering mishap. I do ow…

I took a trip to Goodwill during my lunch break today. While there wasn't a lot of computer stuff (only some $70 LCDs), I did find a rainbow Apple logo in a CD rack. That Apple lo…

By no means complete, and more useful for older cards than for newer, is: http://www.chipmunk.nl/DRAM/ChipManufacturers.htm The last-but-one (2000) of the Apple RAM-guide series …

2Mx32 should be 8MB SIMMs I think.

I got this bag a while ago and decided to look at it tonight. 2 of the RAM sticks are new and have 'NEI - 100 37101' & on another sticker 'n1 x 36-70' and are from 1996 3…

I have Mac & PowerMac Secrets (Second Edition I think). It's quite informational. :beige:

Thanks! But that didn't quite do it... I installed the stock driver. It does report that it is supported now, but it still won't read DVDs. Let me just go to the eMac After this po…

Try using the "patchburn" method. http://www.patchburn.de should have the procedures you need. 73s de Phreakout.

It is rather annoying when the CD/disk is missing, isn't it? In my book conquest recently, the Power Mac book should have had a CD, and the Customizing the Mac for Fun/Productivity…

I'm actually on the look-out for another bookshelf. Roughly half of my books/manuals are in boxes, which isn't the worst thing since I don't read them all everyday, but when I do, …

I went to a book sale where it was $3 for a filled bag. There were a lot of computer books, not just many vintage Mac ones. I did manage to find Macworld Illustrator 5.0/5.5 Bible…

I have a growing collection of olden Mac books too, including repair/reference/technical books and history books, as well as both John Sculley and Gil Amelio's autobiographies.

Hey everyone, the eMac in my sig has some DVD problems. I installed a nice superdrive, (Not apple branded) from an old DVD player/creator. The DiskDrive does NOT Detect DVDs but do…

Indeed. Partly, my collection is for posterity (if there will be a posterior). If they have the machines but don't know how to use them, then that's a shame. Not everything is docu…

Enjoy. Click to expand... Oh I am! It runs pretty much anything I run at it! Oh, and It is waaaaaaaay way faster than my 933Mhz G4. I know people say it lags a bit. Well wha…

G5's are awesome UNIX workstations. Enjoy.

Always nice to have some reference books when you get into the vintage Macs. Lots of information when these machines were the best there was. Good find!!

Is this yours? I'm amazed it's not had the 640 x 480 mod done, or has a bigger HD - everything else is there (Appledesign speakers, split keyboard, PDS PPC card!). JB

I hope this gets a good home: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250480615872&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching#ht_506wt_1101 Most notably, it has the elus…

Cool! The only Mac book I have is Macs for Dummies, either the second or third edition. The Mac book I want is a MacBook! }

tada! Ok. When you install ram in a G5, it is NOT like the old power macs. The olds ones were like this 1|2|3|4|5 1|2|3|4|5. The new PowerMac G5s go likes this 4|3|…

What they might mean by that is that the machines have data on them that aren't already on other computers, it's not always that they want the data secret or private, as much as th…
