Well, then, I guess this is an instance of that. I don't mind that it's a "clone", but I've found that the real thing (an iPad, in this case) is almost invariably better (being th…

The area to look at like 360Alaska stated is those parts. But also there are 2 cable jacks to look at, most importantly the one that connects to the CRT Yoke. It should be 6 to 8 p…

Elfen: thanks! I didn't see anything on the back so I couldn't figure out what they were. The kernel panic one had a new OS installed by me, I will try to see what is wrong before …

Those eMacs are G4s. If you pull on the DVD/CD ROM Door to open it downward there should be a label to tell you what it supposed to have. And if you got the 10.4 or 10.5 CD/DVD, y…

eMacs aren't that rare. But nonetheless nice find!

yeah I have that same HP Pavillion in the back its a nice machine.

I can get pictures later tonight, as well as the models.

Well, full USB ports means I can add Bluetooth rather easily if need be. Let me know how it goes with those. Can I have some close-ups of the tablets, if it's not too inconvenien…

Haven't looked at every model yet. Mostly it's HP Pavilion, Dell Latitude, Toshiba Satellite stuff. Core 2, Pentium Dual Cores, one i3, and maybe some other stuff. Let me know what…

Nice haul! If you decide to sell any of it (I suspect you'd need to to get yopur space back!), I'd be interested in one of those tablets if they run at least Android 2.1 and have …

Pretty good haul. I say it's a haul because I had to haul all this around while I went to more sales! Many people just don't put out computers until you ask. Ask and you come back …

CHeers mate that looks to be worth it's weight in gold. I might look at pulling the A-board out when I have time and give it some hot air to see if it makes a difference.

If tapping helps/hurts, it's a sure sign that some solder needs to be re-flowed... Here's something I've been working on: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_Xp3uN-BcxsRThRU1NOQ1RX…

Well, as of late I have noticed my SE Superdrive has developed a bit of a jittery display most noticable when it first powers on, and some ever so slight dimensional changes with c…

I'm not sure if the space between the two nubs needs to be clear... so a full axle might not work.  a nice tight-fitting bit of metal (perhaps as simple as a bit of clothes hanger …

Could do a rod, or drill out the one side and glue a rod into it.

The different angles of door is something I have not been thinking about much. Your argument makes lot of senses... But how do you suggest I proceed to repair that little pin that…

I'm glad you sorted that out. I hope now things will be easy for you when you replace the floppy drive. You should be able to replace the drive guts with another working one like a…

I have an Apple III I bought many years ago from a member of this forum. Can't remember who, sadly! I have not started it in years, but I know it needs some care. The first thing …
