Hey, If you want, you can HAVE my iBook. It is a 500MHz. say $120 +the price of shipping?

If yours is also the GPU's departure from this hateful existence, or at least a letting go from the MLB, find trag's post here about using modelling clay to protect adjacent compon…

If you have nothing to lose, might as well try the "home BGA reflow" procedure. Get yourself a heat gun and some bourbon (ok, sake will do). The drink's for you, the heat gun's for…

So my G3 800 iBook's logic board bought the farm the other day. This is the second one it's had, too. Of course Apple's repair program has long ended, so now I have a scratched, wh…

If I get this up and running, I'll definitely keep an eye out for an upgrade kit, equant -- thanks. It is too bad that the TCP/IP connection isn't persistent; I wonder why they mad…

I've had an eMate for well I don't know. I got it new after they discontinued, so 10 years? I've used it for many things, and am quite fond of it. I do think the HWR is a bit qu…

If you do have any plroblems getting it up and running or need extra parts then this chappie, http://newtonsales.com/ does sales and repairs. Nothing wrong with putting a bit of m…

I deeply appreciate the tips, beachycove. I will perform the hard reset dance at the first opportunity. It would be nice to get it working. It looks like a neat little machine for…

The eMate is a great machine for its intended uses. Accept none of the usual insults regarding your new toy. I have fiddled with several of these over the past months, and while m…

Thanks, Rodus! That website seems to be *the* Newton place -- I'll be spending a lot of time there, I see (assuming that I resurrect this unit). As for surfing, I've got my expect…

I've found Newtscape to be the best with NetHopper a very close second, a word of warning though, surfing on an eMate is going to be slooooow. It's slow on my 2000 which has a 162…

It sure does -- many thanks, ChristTrekker. Have you tried any of these? I'm up for a certain amount of experimentation, but I'd also like to benefit from the collective wisdom of …

A little Googling finds browsers called Courier and LunaSuite. The first is GPL, the second is discontinued. Does that help at all?

For $4 I got my first emate. Doesn't work at the moment, but assuming that it can be induced to do so at some point, what choices are there for browsers? I understand that there's …

Dug out a crossover cable, successful connection. Strange because both machines should not need it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2274?viewlocale=en_US So I guess I don't need an…

since it is a sawtooth could i put in some other g4 cpu in it like a quicksilver's, or even a duel cpu? Also what are good after market cpu upgrades that are compatible? Click t…

Well, I don't know what CPU's fit... but.. [)] ]'> Lets hope they don't duel!!

Ok it does have agp, I just didnt know if they put agp in and then did some other major changes later on (well obviously the quicksilver), so since it is a sawtooth could i put in …

It has AGP and is therefor a Sawtooth.
