RetroBrighted SE/30 System — #1
Folks, I did all the work this past Spring, but it took me until now to upload the photos to my Flickr account. Simply put, I used both liquid and gel versions of RetroBright on m…

Use Lido (in that package, along with patched HD SC Setup) to format your hard drive.

Yeah, I ran ubuntu desktop as well as debian etch or lenny (or both?) on my A21m and it was perfect, nothing needed any special setup.
Both of those keyboards and the A21m are nice…

If you're comfortable opening the iPod, check the Firewire connector to see if it has broken solder joints. I seem to recall that was an issue with those older models.
I havent re…

Yeah, the 701c looks great but I'm not too interested in it for a few reasons, the biggest of which is that my entire pre-P3 thinkpad collection went to _K. [] ]'>

The 701c butterfly is the one most colletors want in the 7xx series, and the ones that you see are mostly beat and expensive. If I come across one cheap I will probably snag it but…

. . . I noticed that the adjustable keyboard has keyswitches, I thought it was newer than that. And my broken Extended II is now reverting to oversized-blunt-weapon mode. }

Fair enough, USB 1.1 will suffice. The real question is whether Linux will like it or not.

When I said "new in box" I meant "new in box."
The adjustable keyboard came with everything, even the numeric keypad, the adb cables were still packaged too. Best thing: no yel…

Darn, no luck yet reinitializing. I only got the internal drive to appear once in Disk Repair– it said the drive has a problem that Disk Repair can't fix– and HD SC Setup says it's…

. . . a brand new Apple Extended Keyboard II in box, a Apple Adjustable Keyboard new in box, and a box of used 30-pin SIMMs (4MB I think). I also find out the origin of "$240" a…

I have been going nuts collecting old P1 and 486 Thinkpads lately (blame Cory5412 for getting me started).

cseals3,
I looked up the error code "0000000F" "00000002" in my copy of Macworld Mac Secrets, 5th Edition by David Pogue and Joseph Schorr. Staying focused on the "00000002" code…
iMac Summer 2K doesn't like OS9 anymore! — #9
Macgeek417,
Try updating the drivers for the hard disk drive. See if OS 9.x will install from there. If it installs, then download Firmware Update version 4.1.9f4 (under OS 9.x'…
2G iPod — #2
I've always wanted a really nice first generation iPod. It seems like most of them would have been thrown away by now, because new iPods are so cheap compared to the first one.

So I was poking around craigslist yesterday, when I came across "First Gen iPod - $20." Interested, I clicked to find what appeared indeed to be a 1G iPod! E-mailed the girl, and w…
Clamshell video out — #10
I have the Apple AV cable and I can confirm that the plug is slightly longer than normal and has 4 contacts... I'd guess it has to be since the jack on the clamshell supports a sta…
