I have a powerbook 190cs which is actually my main 68k machine. I have a good ethernet pcmcia card so I can connect it to my network and copy files there. I also use it as a localt…

pitch them!!! horrible machines. I went through 3 of them before realizing how much they sucked. I wouldn't touch one with a 10 foot pole! Click to expand... Oi, I wouldn't m…

Beachycove's screen transplant suggestion is a wonderful idea. There are (or used to be) stacks of 5300s with bad logic boards but good screens, so finding a source of organ donors…

You can pop the active matrix screen from a PB5300c on one and make a plain-Jane 190 into a rather nice colour 68k powerbook. I am pretty sure that the 190 cannot take advantage of…

Great! It is always good to get a pair of machines since the one that doesn't work can be used as a spares machine. It sounds like you now have plenty to play around with!

Got a call from work asking if I wanted some PowerBook 190s. They came with AC adapters (one's dead.) One 190 works fine, the other has a dead display? Nothing shows up, but it chi…

Its been working fine for a few days now. I don't know what happened.

damn thats a big one

Well done for the Mac liberation. I don't live in the US tho so Lc 580 and Lc 575 are quite rare here [:O] ]'>

There's been a recount. We are now at over 35 Macs. Of the 30 I have, here's the breakdown: 5260/120 - 10 5500/225 - 3 LC 580 - 9 5200/75 LC - 4 LC 575 - 3 5400/120 - 1

Dangit, I'd love to take that IIe off your hands for you.

Thank you for being a hero!

Ooo, a 575. Great donor if you have a CC sitting about. My uni had a lab of CCs back in the day. I wish I'd stayed in touch with people there...I wonder if they had an auction w…

One of the 5200s has the TV input, tested it earlier. Works pretty well! A few have A/V in and/or out, some have ethernet. It's a good variety. Nothing was wiped, so they have all …

I always wanted a 5500. They make great TVs. I even have the TV tuner kit for them in my storage. I don't live in the US tho so I can't have yours

i would be killed for that, but thts just awesome!

Holy liberation batman! While I would be killed instantly by the SO for doing something like that, I must congratulate you. Very nice. /golf clap

Nice haul. Hope it was not to hard on the car.

Wow - that is certainly an amazing number of Macs! The Apple IIe is a very nice little bonus as well - you don't often find them for cheap these days.
