I overclocked my PB5300c 100Mhz to 117 - considering it's one of the slowest PPCs around, this makes it only slightly slower

Slightly less slow, Shirley?

In addition to the display, I think it also had the 117 Mhz 603e from the 5300ce. I'd say that this was most likely what ended up being the PowerBook 1400, considering that the fir…

Heh - on a very dark, rainy day last week I overclocked my PB5300c 100Mhz to 117 - considering it's one of the slowest PPCs around, this makes it only slightly slower

I am going to be getting a Purple iMac G3, tray-loading. It has Mac OS 10.3.9, 333MHZ, 2 hard drives in it (that's what they told me, an 8GB and a 30GB), 256MB Ram. I will be che…

Mustang EVT PtotoBook
I guess it's fitting that “my Eleanor” is the Mustang EVT, the prototype of a souped up 5300ce. I've had two run-ins with this machine of myth. The first tim…

Yes there was - it was briefly marketed as an upgrade for the Beige G3 (not slot compatible with AGP graphics G4s). I think it was pulled for power and/or reliability issues. You…
Didn't there used to be a G4 daughterboard of some sort that could run 2 unbalanced G4 CPU's, i.e a 350 mhz and a 450 mhz. Always imagined that could be useful if you could find a…
