Just out of curiosity, what are you mainly using it for? I've just won a 2.0 GHz dual G5 on eBay that will replace my 700MHz eMac for graphics (and a bit of audio/video)... I'm ant…

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…

Since the output consists of two stereo channels and one composite video line, there have to be four connections. A standard stereo headphone connector can't work -- it has to have…

Aaaannndd.. It's up to 4.5GB

What is that supposed to mean? Are there others making a 10.2.8 compatible browser with up to date features? (Oh Mr. Porter is the best Will Hay film EVAH!)

It makes me wonder why, if Opera can turn out an up to date browser that does not require Tiger, why can't anyone else? Click to expand... Because they do.... Code: MAC…

I can second what Gil and LCGuy have written. The plastic HDD sled used by Apple for IDE (as they were, so long ago) was/is different in detail from that for SCSI HDDs. It has a …

So after my G4 lost it's ethernet port after a recent lightening storm, I was left with my 5 year old Windows laptop for internet use, but it bit the dust after overheating so I am…

What I do is use a flathead screwdriver on the tab, and use it to get some leverage. Even then, it takes a LOT of force, and you can end up breaking the tab. :-/

Well, I got the new RAM, but the upgrade will be on hold for a bit. I can't find the original stick >.< Damn Apple and their stupid Interleaving thing! Yes, I know …

I've had the HDD out of my 5260 (which uses the same shell) a couple of times..I can back up what Gil said...you have to REALLY haul on the HDD to get it out...be gentle, don't bre…

But you have no legitimate need for over 4GB...

Nope, just push up on the tab and pull out. It's possible that the hard drive was never touched, and after 10 years, it might take some force to get it out. Click to expand... …

nope, none are mentioned in the Service Source guide at this stage.

are there any screws?

I'm sure this sounds silly, but how do you slide the hard drive out of the Power Macintosh 5500 chassis? I unlocked the visible release tab but it seems like the other side is stuc…

btw, my IIc has the same port, so am I to assume it will work on that? Click to expand... I would also like to know whether the AppleColor will work with Macs. Nice score btw, …

Nope. It does not work. A four ringed Sound jack is avaliable on the iPhone Headset. the iPhone uses an extra one for controls.

i hope so too!

I seem to recall that when I had one, the AV Cables had a longer mini-jack that had an extra pin. Supposedly to take video output, and then they all had a common ground. You will …

Found that out a bit ago, but then again, I should have known that. HOWEVER! I didn't know how the RAM Slots worked. After trying endlessly with different DDR 400 RAM Cards, I not…

And may it work for many, many hours/days/weeks/months/years more! Congratulations on your persistence! And if it should start to misbehave again, now that you know the lay of th…

if it had foil on it, it could be rf shielding, could be electrical insulation, or could be some form of sound damper

That looks like shielding of some sort.
