The first Apple PowerBook with SCSI Disk Mode would have have to have been the PowerBook 160, 165, 165c, 180 or 180c - I can confirm that the PowerBook 140 and 170 definitely do no…

whereas older lappys, such as say, my 1400 have, well, a much more civilised size trackpad.

As much as I hate inkjet printers (its ok, the plotter makes up for that ), it sounds like quite a setup. Speaking of trackballs, as much as I used to like putridpads a few ye…

There were no PowerBooks made that had both ADB and USB from the factory (the only Mac that can claim that honour is the Blue and White G3). However, you can add a USB CardBus card…
. . . were any ever made?
. . . or were USB cards made for a PB with ADB already on it?

Okay, I'm stumped on this one. I've torn apart my 350Mhz Idigo because I plan on robbing it for parts in case my 500, or another machine I'm hoping to get, goes down (hopefully not…

I leave the keys around the space bar (generally the open-apple and closed-apple keys) off until I get the space bar on. That leaves some room for fiddling the metal bar on. The ba…

I just washed all of my IIe's keys. All of them went back fine except the space bar. I do not know how to put it back on. How do you do it?

If its any indication, I got 7 years from the 8x TEAC drive that came with my 1400 (which I've had since new). And my iMac's original Panasonic CD-ROM drive (which is a notebook un…
