I'll probably end up getting another… Unless I get one of those SyQuest thingers. Has anybody used them? Are they better? :?: EDIT: Oh, and SuperDisks! How are those?

Yeah, that happens... Sorry

AND NOW I HAVE THE CLICK OF DEATH!! :O >

The best one I had was not really the same class (it was my grandmother.) She complained that one day her iBook just stopped running, and nothing she could do could get it running…

... I can't believe that, with such a long history of failures, laptop manufacturers haven't devised a more robust method of getting power. ... Then again, it's absolutely brillian…

I just set up one of my IIe's on my desk. I have it sitting under my 20" Dell LCD, which has a composite input, and setup a serial connection (Keyspan PDA Serial-USB adapter) to my…

Glad you got it working.

Until it catches fire...one thing that i'm going to be incredibly paranoid about when i get my MacBook (no, i'm not dissing MacBooks...i'm going to OWN one in a month or so!)

Yes, it's surprising how many 'books (and windows laptops) have been afflicted with this same problem. I can't believe that, with such a long history of failures, laptop manufactur…

Nicely done! The power connector fault is one I've seen countless times though it often means there's more free/cheap "broken" machines for those who know how to fix them! I'm sti…

So a friend of a friend hears that I'm wacky for macs, and gives me a dead clamshell ibook that he had gotten from still someone else long ago, thinking he'd get around to fixing i…

Sounds like a good machine. The 37GB hard drive is probably not the original as I think the 400MHz DV iMacs shipped with 10, 12 or 20GB drives. Click to expand... Unformatted i…
