Hello all, I recently acquired a PowerBook 540c. So far, I'm very happy with it, blah blah and blah. Anyways, as I was snooping around the System Folder, I noticed something: a Po…

I also noticed there is a dealer selling new G3 500 upgrades for the 7500 et al Macs for $199.95. That's kinda stupid since Sonnet still has stock of those for $50. 8-o Click t…

Glad it worked out for you.

Ok, I received the AUI to RJ-45 adapter yesterday. Tonight I put my Dayna ethernet card in my SE/30, spent some time through the web to find a working image of the Dayna drivers fl…

I wish Li-Ion batteries were possible for the 1400...sigh. Click to expand... IIRC they are, but you'd need to hack the 1400 somehow so it wouldn't try to charge them (or just …

I have the wireless cards...you can text surf (using WannaBe) and pull up the low-demand BBC website, that's about all I can do without pulling my hair out. But it was fun to get w…

Is that one of the original Apple batteries or one of the aftermarket ones? That is really good runtime, either way! I have found that my VST aftermarket ones can't use battery rec…

Having tried one and found it worked fine in beige machines, I cleaned my seller out of his entire stock to upgrade the rest of my beige PCI Powermacs. I might even have one left o…
