Why would we joke? This is a serious matter. A classic mac could be sick. Geez man get with it. [] ]'>

I can't figure this out. When I turn on my Apple //e the just says "Apple //e" at the top, and nothing else happens. I was expecting a prompt for Apple Basic. The Apple //e em…

You guys better be joking.

Is there any noticeable difference with the mouse connected directly to the Mac, space (and time) permitting?

I noticed a similar behaviour (mouse not responsive for some ten seconds) with a Mac Mini PPC. The extended wakeup duration seems to take a different amount of time, each time. I a…

And I bet that Mac in the middle's CRT will be dead, they are not happy when stored upside down.

I don't know what it is, but I see something in an original rainbow apple-branded box on the pallet behind it. Click to expand... That looks very much like the box for a LaserW…

Defiantly an eMac. You can see the screw on it if you look closely.

That'd be an eMac. Probably with a burnt out analog board.

Yup. The corners are too square to be an iMac. You can also see part of the silver screw on the side of it.

That could have been true in my parents' house, given that the business that my father managed had been presented in 1950 with a plaque recognizing its then 25-year franchise as a …

Now the USB Pro Mouse takes 15sec or so longer to wake after the Mac itself wakens from sleep. Click to expand... Its not dead, its resting. Pining for the fjords.

It's the ying-yang balance. You sped up the rest of the machine so to keep the machine in balance, the mouse has to go slowly. If it didn't then it would end up getting faster and …

I bought a good clean G4/466MHz DA from a reputable dealer, and successfully tricked it out with an AGP Radeon 7500 so that the Mac could drive a 20-in ADC Cinema Display. I also a…

Thanks for the advice. The reason for asking was simply that I have a Wallstreet battery with newish cells in which, however, I believe the controller to have failed. It came rece…

If the cells were ever over-discharged, some controllers will set a nonvolatile bit to prevent recharge. Click to expand... Is that why bunches of these stupid LiIon batteries …
