cool man!

I've actually had this eMac since 2007 or 2008 (Leopard had JUST been released) but never really documented it or even mentioned it. Backstory is there used to be a place in Napa …

Yeh I'm quite enjoying using it actually... posting this from it in fact. I still havent worked out exactly what it's affliction to the R7k or the properly working Rage128 is yet, …

The Sonnet card will work well, and one day look out for one of their later G4 700/800/1000 upgrades which also run well in the 9600, and reliably.  It will feel like a new machine…

Sounds like all systems are go then. Might do the switcheroo then. Would I be right in assuming the majority of programs wouldn't really be able to make use of the multiprocessi…

Never heard of, Sonnet upgrades are usually very forgiving and don't tax the machine like others (with selectable bus, multiplier speeds .... Sonnet did none of that), so I'd go fo…

That does not ring any bells for me.  Doesn't mean it never existed, but does mean that it must have been pretty obscure if it did. There were issues putting G4 upgrades into the …

I recall reading somewhere... fairly recently even, that there was a certain CPU upgrade available for the 9xxx/8xxx/7xxx series PowerMac's that had an apparant link to failures of…

I have found the IICI especially fussy, it as well as the IICX, IISI, IIVI, & IIVX use "Sync on Green." I believe declaring a 13/14" RGB monitor is what worked for me...

Here is my motherboard in my Apple II, I wasn't able to find the part number, maybe its under the keyboard part. My board has different slots, they have a little flange at the end …

And an FPU! Bonus!

Now available with new caps and clean 

Great score for that price! It's always nice, in my opinion, to save a little Macintosh from doom.

Yesterday i spotted an LC III for sale, was only 10 euros, but advised only for spares. Already have one of those, but too cheap not to call the owner. The LC was complete, and n…

As mentioned above, the first board is a Rev 7 RFI motherboard used in the Apple II+.  The second board looks like an earlier Rev 4 motherboard that was probably used in an Apple I…

Like Bear said, the top is an Apple II+ board, the bottom is an Apple II. The boards are nearly identical, it is the ROM and the date tag that tell you but its a late model Apple I…

The first one is a II+ board. The bottom one has the characteristics of a II board, but some went into II+es so without seeing more details I don't think anybody can say that it de…

Hi guys I was hoping someone could help ID a few motherboards, these are two separate boards I am looking at and I want to make sure they are Apple II and not Apple II+ motherboar…

Even if the motherboard is busted in the XPS there is still really nice components inside. I'm surprised the owner didn't salvage the really nice parts on the inside.

@bibilit , you know where to find these kind of recycle haul here in france Click to expand... Not really, from time to time car boot sales or flea markets have been good to me (…

Nice haul! You could try and save that MacBook Pro with a reflow, probably (and since it's already damaged, it won't hurt anyway).

Crazy how people throw thing… an iPad . @bibilit , you know where to find these kind of recycle haul here in france ? My main source for stuff is Bay or le bon coin...

That's an awesome haul in one swoop, I found a Dell XPS 720 a few years ago too, with a faulty motherboard - apparently a very common fault.  Standard ATX though so would make a fa…

Nice haul, congrats. Almost never get so much  at once. Yes people toss a lot of fine equipment. I get the same kind of Wii for my kid for 3 euros in working condition and a nice…

Incredible haul!  The XPS appears nice - I haven't seen older Macs (like the LC) show up on a doorstep (outside of eBay or here) in some time, here in downstate IL.
