I had heck getting mine to work. 7.5 it played nice with the adapter, 7.5.5 seemed to break it. Finally gave up after a while.

The tabs themselves are too big... taped it together and it recognized and started to charge. It gave off a weird smell which was likely the tape so I broke it up and will regrou…

One for the road... the battery holders are too long. So either I'll just use their tabs or cut them down to plastic bats and glue the tabs on. Elegant.

Ah excellent information gentlemen! I will take it apart sometime soon when I have some spare time on my hands and have a look what I'm dealing with.

Good to hear, 360Alaska. Incidentally, that last sentence is supposed to be "1/2 hour if you're good with an iron."

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…

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 …

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…

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.
