The G3/400 uprade is probably the second best thing that can happen to any PB1400, just after being equipped with a TFT screen. If asked to spend 200 bucks to pimp a 1400c, I woul…

Makes sense to me... Can't put a price on the nostalgia we get from using old Apple gear. Riddle me this... does it make sense for me to occasionally do book research on my PowerB…

No, doesn't make a lot of sense as beachycove said. From the looks of eBay US, you can get a Pismo 500MHz for around $250-300.

No, it is not worth it, if worth is calculated in terms of cold, rational thought. You can buy a Pismo for $200.

In your opinions, is it really worth shelling out $200 to bump my 1400 to a G3/400?

I'm lost. I can't work out what you have done and what you are trying to do. What was 8.1 running on? Normally to install an OS you have to have booted from a different device t…

I can view the files on my Mac mini. And I've booted (recently) 8.1 and had that install, but I installed 7.6 from the 8.1 install and it says on boot " This system disk cannot be …

Not all OS disks are bootable. 1. can you view the contents on a another mac? 2. can you boot the 1400 with a disk tools disk?

I tried those drivers already, but they don't seem to work. ???
