Does he have regular classic and classic II?

BLOB is definitely retired from reverse engineering and schematics! hasn't worked on a board in over two years. But I called him up and asked em very nicely and he said that he wou…

It's by no means a Lisa or 128k level of special to me, so I'll more than likely go for the LCD transplant route. Make the machine so much lighter, easier to move, and a tad more p…

Mmmmm at this point in time, a machine has to be fairly special to warrant me bothering with a flyback replacement. If one were to fail on either of my iMacs for instance, I dare s…

Congrats on the fix.

Guess this one may face a CRT to LCD transplant at some point in the future. It looks like it was upgraded quite a bit, so I don't want to lose that. I just don't like fidgeting wi…

here is some update. i just got smile mac with nomal bong sound. i had replaced the 10 ram and 1 74s244. but actually 74s244 was not problem. the problem was just ram only. …

wow that is hard-core mike.   thanks for that info.

the flyback is bad.  no ifs ands or buts about it. I had changed a couple out in G3 AIOs way back in the day for this exact issue. the flybacks were made by goldstar and hungwa or…

Faster than before, or faster than another machine? I'd love to see these compared to a G5 Quad.

Little news : I have found a 'patched' version of 10.4.3, with the original kernel, and it works. I can launch Intel apps without problem, when i found a Tiger compatible version.…

I have never built one, but the idea of making one (and getting some soldering skills in the process) for less than US$50k or whatever a totally beat-up Apple I usually goes for. (…

Hello! I wanted to start making the Replica I from the book "Apple I Replica Creation Back to the Garage" but i got problems with finding the appropriate PCB Manufacturer in europ…

From my experience the PowerMac 5500's had flyback issues also... basically it was just a matter of whether the logic board would last long enough for the flyback to fail. lol. So …

I gave up and gave the board to a friend who has professional equipment for removing things like chips. The right equipment does a nice job without the damage I would do.

was it tough getting that old filter out buddy?

Couldn't have done it without your help!

cool u da man!!!

BMOW, I don't recall if it happened when I booted from the floppy. It did happen when booted from an external drive though.

Sorry Indidnt take a photo, but Rlfen described it correctly. I can't take a photo now, because the problem has been fixed. Thanks to C and uniserver, Bourne filters have been rep…

put it in a room with Air conditioning, or a dehumidifier.
